education time : if you are looking to grow the pump culture in your area, take that trusty marker, go play open class with the masses and issue a bit of education. After the proper amount of instruction, magically a few will follow.
It takes some patience, but it works.
You can speed this up by maybe loaning out those old SL68s to let some new friends experience pump-play.
Once you get enough - put together a small group of pump ballers and run challenge days - pumps vs semis. give the semis a few extra players just to make things fair. and then the local pump thing should start to take off; especially with the guys who grow tired of the uber-Gat expense.
Warning: some commercial field owners may not like this - cause pump = less paint sales (per player) But someone should do a profit analysis on a bag of Hellfire for $15-$18 vs a case of Heat for $45-$50... pump ballers do like good paint. What is cool about pump players playing commercial fields is they can afford to play real regularly - thus attracting more players : which has to be good for any business.
