Can't say I do, please enlighten us it sounds like it has the potential to be funny.

For the record, there is a major difference to me when you shoot downfield and a ref happens to be in your way, even if you knew he was there and it would hit him when you pulled the trigger and going out of your way to aim at refs. If a ref is in the way, shooting him is perfectly acceptable in my opinion.

You talking about the runaway circus or soem team with a clown/circus realted name at cup?

[NewbieMagMan10988]

I think the "clown" team just laned the reffs off the break and ran off the field. They were all banned from PSP nppl, all that jazz.


I woud never shoot a ref intentionaly. They have it rough, no need to shoot them more than they need....if that makes sence.


If i am shooting and a reff gets in my way, his/her fault.


I want to be a reff, so please dont shoot them!

Thats because the refs on your field all outweigh you by 80lbs.

If a ref is in my way ill yell for him to move give him a few seconds. If nothing happens my stream of paint will make him move.

I had once that one of the refs told me it was ok to shoot the other ref (2 refs for woodsball game) so i did plink him once. Call me whatever you like, but those guys don't have the best job. They could be playing, but they decided to ref instead. I could let the guy have it, but that didnt seem very sathisfactory.

The most funny moment came when in another game one of the refs gets a talon, or somthing like that (cheap plastic pump) and shoots the other ref. That ref runs back into the field to another player, lends his ion and shoots the other ref off the field. I don't have to mention the ref with the talon ran and screamed like a sissy gurl. We laughed our asses off seeing that

tear em up boyz

I have shot many a ref in my 17 years of playing ( wow I'm old.... )

Majority of the time it was accidental, but there has been the occasional ref sitting on his butt on the hillside not wanting to move or make checks.

Or refs giving out position to their friends - watched a ref signalling his friends on a bunch of newbs at Hells Survivors a few years back. I dint even know the little guys that were about to get tore up, but I got up circle flanked hard right and might have got the ref with about 20 rounds on the run through on those guys. Sucks though, I missed one of them and got tore up - shot in the back about 40 time with my hands in the air ( obviously his buddies were still on the trigger too )

Monster Game I **moved** many a ref that was on a ridge that I was trying to shoot over.

Heck a friend of mine was reffing a 30 on 13 game and made a bad call and put a guy I hit back in the game because the guy claimed he thought a bunker I was in was neutral (then why were you advancing and firing on it duh ?!?!) I was so ticked I put about 6 at my buddy and then a dozen or so from head to toe on the guy he put back in the game. Course by that time 9 guys had advanced on me because of the crap call and I got tore up.

maybe its just me but, refs make great shields, why get them to move just use them to block the other player so you can move easier. i have done this a bunch of times and all the other refs just laugh.

[StygShore]

hehe

you are the reason the refs get shot

I have shot refs over the years for many reasons. There was a time when I was reffing that the refs would carry thier own markers to shoot at each other or deter players from shooting the refs. All in good fun of course. Once that stopped, a ref might "borrow" a marker from a player to take a shot at another ref for a laugh or just ask the player to take the shot. Even that stopped. Occationally if I was playing a might bonus ball a ref just to keep that on thier toes. Tournaments were a differnet story. I have shot refs in touries by accident and to "move" them. If I'm moving a ref I do try and keep the number of hits to the ref as close to 1 as I can. Mind you if he doesn't move after that 1 hit then they deserve to get lit. If you have ref'd in tournament then you know that you are going to get hit. It comes with the job, but that doesn't mean that players have the right to light up refs when ever they feel like it.

Somehow when I'm reffing the players get the idea that I may be carrying a firearm on field.
I don't know why
