    Is This Move Legal?

    yup... the title asks the question- Say i play a game with my 'mag, and during the second game i go to the staging area and while i am walking off the field "say" my guns broken...when its recycle time i grab my backup pistol and hide it behind my harness and just waltz into the enemies flagstation...with no guns in my hands. can i just pull the pistol from between my back and the harness and shoot everybody in the backs? ahh it sounds good to me- i love to find ways to eliminate people.

    like i said, it sounds legal in a woods game, but i thought i might ask first.

    You walk off the field (out of bounds) you are out. For good. Till the game is over. For whatever reason.

    YOU walk around like a fool in bounds out in the open and say "my guns broke" I am gonna gog you quick. If you don't got your hands and marker over your head yellin "I'm Out" you are fair game. I'm takin you out.

    Now if you can get away with it, in bounds, you can recite the constitution if you want, as long as you don't say the work "out" anywhere but then whoa be unto you the idiots you are playing against...they deserve it.

    Two markers on the field at start is usually not allowed and going back to get it puts you out of bounds.

    Most likely illegal most of the time from what I can see. Might be allowed in back yard ball if you don't get beat up.

      Firstly mags dont break! Unless you get an elephant to sit on it!

      Secondly, by "saying" your mags broken that would probably eliminate you from the game.

        You'll probably get blown away as you're "waltzing" into the enemy station.

They swarm with their party, they feel with their party, they are happy in their party's approval; and where the party leads they will follow, whether for right and honor, or through blood and dirt and a mush of mutilated morals."

          ok, i dont usually call myself out (ive done it 2 times in 3 years) but if you get out for whatever reason, our field has recycles or reinsertions...and no, my mag dont break, only the paint inside it breaks. now i didnt say i was gonna walk back on the field with 2 guns after i get recycled, i have 1 but its HIDDEN....HIDDEN, do you people Grasp the concept of NOT VISIBLE? its not in a holster. nobody would see you put it between your back and your harness in the staging area. you just go back out and say your a spectator. you have no visible guns, so i dont see any reason why the other team would shoot at you. when they focus on your original team, and their backs are turned, you can then take a few out, maybe 2 or 3...or more.

            Ya, here's the thing

            I think everyone understands the word "HIDDEN". I think what you are failing to understand is that barring complete newbies to this game, anyone who sees you on the field without a ref vest and without your hands up is going to shoot you. Think about it, we shoot tree stumps, flags, cars etc. etc. and they aren't even moving. You walk around in there and you don't get 50 feet from the base, bottom line. If you like, go ahead and try (I wish you the best of luck) but when you get lit up with your pistol still tucked between your pack and your back and you are walking off the field with beaucoup welts, I want you to think to yourself "That dude on the automag forum said this would happen".

            the brains and the muscle.

              OK, you leave the game, go to the staging area. And then you re-enter the game during the recycle.

              In order to be an eligible recycled player, you must first report to your teams "home", and wait until the recycles are active. Then you may walk around with your hidden gun all you want.

              You may NOT just mosey on over to the other team's flag station, without first reporting to YOUR home base.

              Your plan would be cheating. You also have a real good chance of being lit up bigtime, gun hidden or not! Your still wearing your teams color, and I know I'd shoot you!

                yo, Ms. Doc holiday...i dunno who sent you on your power trip, but step off as soon as you can. you act like your afraid to try this. i dont give a dang what you say, because i got what it takes to march into somebodys flagstation and im not afraid to get lit up...its been done before, it WILL be done again, and once the first paintball hits you your out so the rest dont matter. all you can do is hope for the best. i have seen wierd moves that I thought would never work and it was like a blitzkreig move on somebody...it took a 12 man team down to 1 person.needless to say our team won with that special move which hasnt been given a name... what you think when your off the field can have positive or negative effects on the field, and what you think on the field can be different for off the field. Are you, for 1 thing, gonna run tape every single game, every single time you play? or run center? Or do you like to try new things that can be a good thing to your game? i like to think of things that can be positive, and the only way to see if they work is to try it. go ahead, light me up. because someday i will be behind you, out in the open with nothing 1 minute and you will be in the deadbox the next minute, or i could be in my ghillie suit hiding 15 Yds. away from you sniping your whole team... put some SERIOUS thought into it and then comeback and post. i didnt start this thread so i could be flamed by everybody.

                  Just walk around talking kind of loud asking "has anybody seen my barrel plug?", while making what appears to be an effort to look for it. No admission of being in or out, but an assumption is made. I haven't tried that one yet, but I did walk with another team-mate right down the middle of a fort filled woods field "arguing" about who should have shot that guy... Nobody paid us any attention, but there weren't many people left and time was getting very short. It was a loud arguement, too. I love screwing with people's minds! Also joined in a group of people walking out during a big game. Just started walking with them, and when I saw targets, shot them and kept walking. The refs got a laugh out of it, as did the people I was walking with. Gun down, no barrel plug, just walking. Sneaky, yes, but legal.

                    This has to be the worst idea that i've ever heard. Sorry but it's just so "stupid" ... i don't think anyone would fall for that, I'm sorry.

                      I won't get into if its legal or not. I'm sure different fields have slight variations on the rules. If I were on the opposing team I think it might go down like this. I see you with no gun but with the opposing teams color arm band (common way of differentiating teams) approaching. I try to be as sportsmanlike as possible will ask if you are out. You can then either tell me the truth, lie, or go for your gun. If you tell the truth, I shoot. If you go for your gun, I shoot. If you lie, you may get past, but then you weren't very sportsmanlike. I can live with my actions, if you feel its ok to lie in a game of honor, oh well.

                      Just my opinion...

                        Let's get things straight right off the bat. I was not flaming you. Take 3 deep breaths, and then go back and re-read my post. I think you will see that none of what I wrote was in any way flaming you. All I was doing was trying to give you some advice, which you asked for by the way, that I have learned from years of experience. I play, I ref, I run a field and I think about paintball 24/7 365.
                        What you are thinking of doing, which you apparently just thought of, is what is known as a Dead man's walk. This has been tried thousands of times since the inception of the game and will continue to be tried as people continue to "Think of it" for the "first time".

                        Next, i feel your need to stoop to levels of 3rd grade name calling were unwarranted and uncalled for. Are you sexist? Is putting Ms. in front of my name supposed to insult me somehow? Do you feel that women are lower than men and therefore to call a man by a woman's title is somehow an insult?

                        Your misguided feelings should be directed elsewhere, and certainly not at those trying to help you. I do everything I can to help people in this sport on a daily and continuing basis and I think you have mis-judged me.

                        In any case, since my advice is somehow so inflamatory to you I will do my best in the future to not help you or offer advice until such time as you are ready to accept it. You can let me know when that is by showing maturity instead of childishness.

                            Bring your silly newbie trick on! I, for one, am gonna light your butt up for being stupid!!!! I don't think anyone in their right mind is gonna let someone from the other side of the field just waltz on over. If you are on my field and don't have a matching armband, I am going to shoot you regardless, unless you are walking out with a barrel plug in and saying "Hit", "Out" or "Dead Man Walk'n"...
