D, did they let you roll with nasties last year?
Plake has usually been nasty friendly to us, not like electros aren't faster anyway.

I ask this because I get in trouble with bunkering rules, especially when fields consider 'under 20 feet'....

If this rule implies a 'tapout' is a successful (without being marked) 'slide and slam' into the opposite side of an occupied bunker, that might be fun and sucessful, but 'tapping' other players in a fast paced game seems unconventional in a game physical contact is normally prohibited.
If I understand Picasso's version of it you described it correctly by sliding into the opposite side of the bunker and calling the other player out. Works well when you have refs around to follow up. I missed playing at last years so I'm looking forward to this one.
I'm sure Joey C will be by to clear up any and all questions.

I don't recall, but I think I shot Blazers all day.

That is generally where I turn when I am expecting a higher level of competition.

Incynr8, as Treadstone said, you had it right with "slide and slam". Tap the bunker and the opposing players using it are out. That's not to say you can't be shot on the way in, though, which I guess is a loophole to the 20' rule.

We decided Nasties were fine last year, but I didn't see anyone break one out.

No problem. I know you had a few other questions last year and I can't remember if Joe and I put them all in the rules or not. I'll read through the old thread to make sure everything is in the rules.

I understand the rules as posted, no flag recovery from the dead, return flag to center on elim rules, no physical contact, shoot em before 20', or 'slam the bunker' , no bunkering, no modes other than semi, 280fps, ref calls final. Good enough for me.

I'll play in this if you guys want me to, if you have the same 10 from last year in I'll stand as an alternate if needed and fill pods.

I think the tapout rule is if you tap a bunker that someone is in they are out, how that works on a run thru I have no idea. What if the player honestly has no idea that there's someone in a bunker when they run by it? He can't turn and shoot he just has to let the guy in the bunker shoot him?

I get the concept but I've never seen it applied in a tournament situation..

Knightstalkers is looking into playing a 10man team that would mean the beltway gang would be shooting at a CC team.
