Keep your sense of humor and fair play. Live players who receive help from eliminated players will be called out by the judges. Keep your marker and hands above your head as you leave the playing area because there are slime dogs out there looking to paint a few stragglers. The opponent must surrender and avoid a possibly painful close shot or multiple shots. It is mandatory that you call surrender and not take a close shot.
Close shots can hurt.
Persons shooting close will be taken out for two games. When you have the flag you must wear it across your body. A judge is most likely to assume that any paint hits on the flag carrier came after he successfully returned the flag if the judge hears shooting at the flag carrier after the flag carrier has completed his run. Be sure to go quickly back with their flag, when eliminated, so that your team can re-capture their flag and try again. Only paint purchased at Woodstalk may be used in markers rented at Woodstalk.
