Makes it look a bit silly really.
Totally agree, whats the point in playing if your going to cheat? And if you win by cheating then you wouldnt get the same feeling as if you had won honestly.

I agree with garycarrot on one pull one shot

but thats just my opinion :)

The funny thing is, in that new paintball game there is some sort of Wipe-o-meter :D
That shows how important it must be considered.

What's the PA's rules on it?
The PA gives different penalty points for different fouls... example if a play is caught wiping there would be -50 penalty points and application of the Sosta rule.

This is taken from the PA rule book:-

"As a general guideline, penalty pointing a player should be regarded as the equivelent of a yellow card and the Sosta rule as a red card resulting in a sending of of that player."

Fair enough, seems realtively sensible so far. Although WTF is this "Sosta rule? link me up to the rules if you like.

Sorry would have been useful of me to say wouldn't it.... :D

The Sosta rule is where an offending player is 'sent off' for the next game and no substitutions can be made aka the team plays a man down next game.
