So, we are out playing in the woods the other day, Im guarding the right flank, which is also the two track to walk out on - the rules distinctly say the path is in bounds and I often walk down it shooting. I had my phantom and was getting heavy fire, the kid in my bunker next to me didnt know what to do.
I step out, and walk down that path, gun down, hands at my side, I look at one opponent in a bunker trying to get his marker to shoot, and BS with him for awhile about the e-blade, I then walk past him and towards there base.
I stop, this is way way to easy, so I turn around and walk back towards the teams, leaning against a bunker behind my opponents, there are two to my left now and one on the tape line. Then I see, up and centered from them the field owner, there best player - yeh this is going to be worth it.
I walk up to him, and sit down in his bunker next to him, we aer just getting pounded from my team, I look at him. "So, how illegal is a deadman's walk". He just looks at me "You haven't been hit yet?" "Nah." Now here it is - I had accomplished what I wanted, I was grinning and laughing, he was to, and just looking at me. I shrugged and nodded "you know, this isn't going to count, I'm just walking off now." And I did, and he played.
Why?
Oh, it was great, the look on his face was awesome. I got the fun of a successful deadman's walk without any of the bitterness of the unsporting (but legal) tactic. The look through his mask... the greatest. And I got awesome prices on everything the rest of the day. We lost, and the person I could have taken out, and the people behind him that I walked past were part of the loss, but if you cant play recball for fun, why play?
