Yes, I have noticed that the ROF for me has increased also, with my .68 Special
I used to conserve on paint and only blow about 300 rounds per 6 game day.  
Well I went out this weekend and gun jammed first round out they barrel.  So 
I only got one kill (newbie)  I was bitching and moaning all the way back to
the staging area.  Second game came up was 1 flag capture the flag.  this field
is really nicely setup for this type game for the fact of the terrian.
See Below.

I play in Florida, and the bowl is a sinkhole and it is quite steep, but you
can still climb in ad out of it with a little huffing and puffing.

Well I got flanked in this game and choose to forget the flankers since they 
were noisy and I had cover from my side of the bowl going down. I run down
into the "target rich enviorment" of the bowl and grap the flag get shots
from god knows where and duck behind a tree, well I look up and I see the
other teams base straight infrount of me (surpise surpise surprise)  I lay
"MASSIVE" amounts of fire into the base tree as I inch up the steep bowl.
Then I hear my gun go full auto.... this means in a .68 Speical that you
are out of gas, I sit there hiding behind a tree, saying to myself I should
have refilled the tank, should have bought the 20oz tank everything I can
dream of.  Well I stick my little beady head around the tree to look up
and what do I hear splat! on the tree, and blue splater all over my face 
mask, I try again. splat! on the tree, blue all over my hand.  I am starting
to get pissed.  I try once again and BING... get caught on the shoulder.
Grumbling I walk off the field, but I want to check out the base and see
what things look like after about 100 rounds.  I get there and the guy 
that kill me, was already DEAD! he had TWO splats on him one in the chest
and one smack on the helment.  I look at him and say "Hey! Dead Men Don't
Shoot"  Quick reply I didn't feel anything.  I wasn't happen I left to
go fill my tank.  We lost the game due to his cheating.   Well needless
to say I KO's the sucker every game for the rest of the day.  One shot
right in the groin. (Ouch)

Well this is the end of the story, don't mind my drivil but I would love
to here other poeples good and bad games.  That same day I had a great
game where I wiped the last 3 people on other team in 45 sec's thanks 
to a very well planed flanking tatic.  I Was the last man on my team and 
came out Lone Wolf.  Real Rush!

SPLAT ON!
