Deadmans Walk- Walking around as if out then turning around and shooting them. (ex. Walking with gun up and no barrel plug, walking with dead players, walking with ref) Voice your oppinion on this controversial subject.
I beleive that this is an unsporstman and couradly act that should be measured up to wiping and bunkering a person on his firstday of paintball.

I'd put it down as being cowardly and un sportsmanly and on par with wiping.
I'll bunker a player on the opposition dont care how much he's played - some one did it to me and i played again just to do it to him :D (havnt succeeded yet :D). I just enjoy revenge and pain.....

You guys get suckered by deadman walking?! muahahahahahahah. ahem, sorry bout that, If a guy stands up out of a bunker and just starts walking...look at the ref for a second, to see if he's calling him out, if not..SHOOT THE HELL OUT OF HIM! I've never had someone pull that crap on me successfully. Shoot first, ask questions later.

remember, dead man walk originated in the Rec arena, during big woods games ... and the true art of it is to walk behind the opposing teams players, then shoot them. I wouldn't condone over doing it, like walking with a Ref of players who are out of the game.
But, if someone can get up, walk by, then shoot someone, it's the person who got shot who's gonna look foolish, not the person who executed the move.

this happend to me before. i was a newbie and we were playing at a feild that was having a tourny going on and the tourny players would come over and play woods when they were done. the field that we played on had like a dirt trail on top so you could walk off the feild and like 4 guys just walked dow the side and snuck up behind our team and made most of us surender. They tried it again but everybody on the team lit them up real good:D

At our local walk on range our team was staging a massive offensive on the border of the range, we hadn't come into any fire but one kid had been hit and was walking out the door by us. I spotted him stopping behind the door and apparently getting ready to attack us, I notified some guys and we said loud and clear,"Alright, we've got a bogie hiding out here. Let's take him out!!!" A couple of pot shots were taken for effect and we heard the kid scrambling his feet out the fence.
If the kid had snuck upon us without cheating, I don't think we would have tried to scare him.

At my friends house we planned a large game with around 12 people(decent size for outlaw I'd think). Anyways in the 2nd woods game we were in the huge fort. 3 of us inside and two scouting the area. Anyways my friend who was in watch tower and another guy who was watching our six ran out of paint and/or Co2. I still had a full tank and 3/4 hopper. So the guy watching our six left and then my friend decided to get out of tower and leave. So It was just me and the 2 others which I had know idea where they were and I'd say 5 people left on the other team(which 1 of them were a lamer and refused to attack basically). So I walk out with my friend using him as a partial shield and to cover my tracks. I then run off get behind a tree and see someone run about 20yds to my 10:00 So i let off a few rounds. Then I hear movement to my 3:00 and look and here it's to guys walking along and they ask for ID and they think it's me. I didn't answer because I wasn't 100% sure if I knew whats what. They let down a few shots at me and I yell out it's me so I meet up with them. We then walk along... keep going. Finally we just leave & yell game over by default. Seeing as the other team were WAY back in the woods not doing much.

I think its a great idea, It teached you to be more aware and is a great tactic.
