There is an easy way round this: Shoot til they drop. Once someone hits the floor, shooting him/her is unsportsmanlike, but if they can still stand/kneel they're fair game until their arm is in the air.

Agree with the Rt Honorable Mr Loco, what happens when you have 8 balls in a string heading out to a bunker and the bloke behind pops his head out for a peek - plenty of hits on him, but overshoot??

I think we all know genuine cases of overshoot when we see them. For the most part they are fairly rare. If the head ref has the option to red card or similar for brutal infractions I think that is the best we can hope for.

The PSP allow 5 shots for each live player on the field (ouch)
I am very happy to let a ref decide when it is overshooting not the number of paintballs that broke.

I can just see it - people that have been complaining about being capped at a "mere" 15bps then whining that they are a victim of overshooting when they are hammered by a newby with his marker ramping away at the same 15bps :p
 
I am in favour of a higher cap than 15. But I have never really thought ive been over shot.

Sometimes I have thought that I have been playing too slow and got shot a few times.

Sometimes I have thought that next time Im gonna leave the field a bit quicker.

But never that the opposing team has over shot me.
If i get shot its my fault....
I dont wanna file a complaint with the human rights organisation...

WAS boards on DB1 have, in my opinion, been responsible for the largest amount of cheating with guns in paintball.

And yes all of them can be put on DB1 even if they did try to hide it and pretend you couldn't.
