Under this generalized scenario, you would consider my conduct in bad taste?  I'm just trying to figure this one out. Thanks! |
It would be considered "dead man talking" and that's cheating in most paintball. If someone is shooting and shoots you out yelling out is to alert the shooter to quit shooting because you've been marked.
Yelling "out" when you've been barrel tagged serves only as a cheat to alert your team to a concealed player AFTER you've been eliminated.
Also the usual rule is the player must have a barrel 10" or longer and verbaly identify "barrel tag" when they "barrel tag" someone to be a legit kill. If they don't verbalize "barrel tag" specificaly you can toe the line and shoot them, if they don't have a 10" barrel (or full marker) its not a kill.
But yes, being angry and shouting "Out" so that your team homes in on a concealed person after your dead, to get back for the sneak kill is considered bad sportmanship.
