What hit? Obviously that came off one of the bunkers. By your account the mark wasn't felt nor seen by any of the refs watching only the two players so clearly it wasn't a hit. Case closed.

See how easy that was . . .:rolleyes:

You've all forgotten the other option...

Call the ref for a paintcheck and try the jedi mind trick
~this is rub off the bunker. this is not a hit. ~

If you get pulled for it, you can complain on all the websites afterwards about how honest you are and how the reffing cost you the game :D :D :D

This will get the usual argument...3 camps.
1) I'd wipe, you all would, your a liar if you say otherwise.
2) I don't think I'd wipe..... but in that situation????
3) I never think about wiping...... and we'll argue with the (1) group for the next three weeks.

Some people just don't do it......see the hit......dammit....hand up. Rather than see the hit.........have a think......hand up. Which player are you?
I'm gonna have to go for the fourth option, if I've not felt the hit but there is sufficient paint that it could be a hit I'd have to call a marshall over and point it out to them, I'm guessing in that 1 on1 situation, in the finals at the World Cup there's gonna be at least 3 marshalls watching you like a hawk, if they've not already pulled you they're probably not going to.

mmmmm Run to get a new bunker and dive into there with the hand thats been hit.... Hopefully I will gain advantage on my opponent and ensure that my hand is WIPED clean.

I have seen so many teams do that in competition. Getting hit off the break and following up with a superman slide to wipe it all off.... but then again I'm not great at these antics and who knows I might get caught.... But who doesn't exploit that gray area... it's not worse than getting hit on a mug run and continuing.... and I have seen that done sooo many times. I have been told by players from VERY big teams that if you don't exploit the gray area you will find yourself at a disadvantage. Worth some meditation...

Definitely very poor marshalling if I can pull it off though.

that's option 3 then........you don't think to cheat :)
 
Well.............

"Marshalll, just to let you know ive just smegged my barrel and managed to get the sh*t from my squeegee all over my gloves (hoping the marshall isnt French, speaks English and im shooting similar coloured paint!!).........Cheers marshall for cleaning it off so there's no confusion!"

If he pulls me im gone, if he wipes me down or calls me clean play on!

hmmmm, losing a hit isn't really playing the grey area though is it.
Oh, I thought that was it. Losing a hit, continuing a run even though your covered in paint. What exactly is the grey area then? I though it was just another word for bending the rules = cheating.
