Scenario Game Ethics

[Super 3]

This is kind of an interesting question that has preplexed me for a while because i can't come up with a clear cut answer to it myself. Considering that a Scenario game is a lot different from a regular walk on game, things that you do at one aren't feasible at another for size and logistical reasons and such anyway here's my example of what i did that caused some debate.

Three other teamates and myself where inserted by a ref at the top of a field because the other team was running around rampant etc. etc. Walking down through a set of bunkers i see about fifteen of the other team just standing around in a group with an objective worth points in their midst. I direct the others guys and we set up in the bunkers around them, i shout "Hey orange team" and we opened fire. Needless to say about three of them made it out and we got the objective. Later that day i hear another player complaining to the field owner about how they where standing around trying to fix someones gun that had been dropped in the dirt when they got unfairly shot up by the other team.

Was i wrong to shoot them up or should i have asked them to surrender?

4 on 15? I woulda shot them up too. It's not your fault they were caught unprepared.

Honestly, if their are 15 of them standing around trying to fix a gun, number one, the gun should have been taken to the proshop, or number 2, about 12 of those people should have been watching for other people ambushing them as you did. So I would say you wern't wrong, probably just a person upset he got out for being stupid. I know a lot of people in online games like counter-strike complain like that a lot when they are stupid. So don't sweat it, I would have done the same thing.

It took 15 people to fix 1 marker! :eek: Geez... musta been a 'cocker! ;) Kidding... honestly.

Seriously, I woulda hosed them too. It doesn't take 15 people to fix a marker... they could have spared a couple to be lookouts.

If you are on the field you are fair game. That includes when you are taking a piss... DAMN that would hurt!:eek:

My friend shot me once in the back when I was taking a piss when we were not even playing a game. He missed the first shot but the next one hit me in the funny bone in the back of the elbow. That sucked, but then I turned to him and started counting, 1,2,3.......... He ran and as I picked up my electro I hosed him in the back about 13 times (some missed though). So, I think we're even now.
