The Hopefuls discussion

Does anyone else here enjoy playing laser tag as a recreational activity or sport? Or just want to?
I've been playing regularly for the past 3 years and it would be wicked to be able to talk to other people who enjoy it :)

I only played it a few times but I think it's really fun! We were organising to go with my class some time ago but in the end we never did it :/ I'd love to play it again some time :)

I played it once a couple of years ago for a friends birthday and really enjoyed it. Apparently I turned around and gave someone a blood nose with my gun, although I didn't realise.

I'd love to go again, but as far as I know there's only one place near where I live and it's expensive.

Laserforce (Or Laser Tag) is the best! My friends and I try and organise an outing whenever we have time :)

My friends and I are going to play a few games today :-) I think it's a great way to pass time :-)

What is laser tag? I've heard of it but never done it

Leeza, laser tag is a game in which players try to 'shoot' other players, targets and bases for points :) It can be played as a team or individual sport.

I've never played before but would love to give it a go.

Me and my friends would always go and play it and the end of school terms and we played it when one of my friends moved to Canada and then we played it again when she came back to visit

Oh my GOSHNESS I love laser tag soooo much! I don't play regularly, but I do play often! I always challenge myself to get the score of the day!

Laser tag sounds so cool, I've never had the chance to play. This might be a stupid question, but can you feel anything when you get hit?

It's so cool to get all the responses from Hopefuls literally all over the world :D
That's not a stupid question at all Chloe! In most places you can't feel a thing and your lights go out but in some places there's a little none painful vibration.
I do know of a 'laser tag' place opening up (that's really just a realistic shooting game) where customers have the choice of wearing a pain belt, which depending on which setting you decide to have it on depends on what happens (lowest is a vibration, highest is suppose to feel like you actually got shot).

A pain belt sounds like a horrible horrible idea haha. But apart from that, I'd like to give laser tag a go! :P

I have only played laser tag once or twice and that was when I was a lot younger but my goodness is it fun!

I love laser tag, but I've only ever been once before. I wish I could go again sometime with some hopefuls maybe?

How about all the Hopefuls gather in each of their countries and play laser tag? ^.^

That sounds like a great idea! But it might have to be the counties/states in the countries as I cant exactly make it down to London, but can get to the Trafford Centre in Manchester

I've played it before and i love it!!! But we don't have it anywhere near where i live right now :(

I live in BERKSHIRE in the south. So I suppose Manchester is too far away for me, and I know London is close but the traffic is awful!

Hmmm. Well, are any of you going to SitC? Because we could go just after that if you are?

This would all be amazing if we could pull it off but unfortunately I live in Australia. You guys should most definitely play though! :D

That sounds like a brilliant idea. Like I said I've never played but it sounds fun so would definitely give it a go :-)

Yeah I live in America so I wouldn't be able to go either. But I think it is still a really good idea :)

I love in Lincolnshire, but I think I could easily get up to Manchester or to London!

Are there any Australian Hopefuls out there?
