4. When marked, you must immediatly move to a designated penalty location for 2 minutes unless otherwise specified.Radio must be turned off (unless you are a team leader) and any talking to "LIVE" players is prohibited. "Dead Men Don't Talk." In addition, any weapon, ammo, etc., must be held on to for the duration of your penalty. You may NOT give your equipment to "live" players. Once the time limit is up, you must return to your base of operations before entering the field.

21. If you think you hit your opponent, yell "Paintcheck!" to alert the judges, and they will check the individual in question.

22. Do not walk behind, stand behind, hide behind, or in any way use a "dead" player as a shield or cover. This is considered "Freight Training."

23. If you are hit while carrying the flag, and the flag has a pole or post, you must stake it into the ground immediately, making sure the post remains upright. If the flag has no post, you must stop where you are at and hold the flag at arms' length, thus making you the "flag pole." Once another player removes the flag from you, you must go to the penalty box. If you are serving as the flag pole and you interfere in any way with the retreval of the flag by the opposing team, you will be suspended.

24. In the start of a speedball match, one minute prior to the game, you must be standing with your back to the field and your barrel on the start rail. You will recieve a 30 second warning, and at that time you may remove your barrel plug or condom.
