Gettysburg Ramping?

[thumper]

Semi only mode - if you ask me. Ive almost been hit 3 times in various staging areas - goggles off - as players with markers tuned to so fine that they accidentially fire bursts of paintballs w/o even touching the trigger. Down at Wildfire last year a bursting marker dislodged the barrel bag, then strafed the building 6 feet from my head ironically while I was chatting with the head ref and Ben Torricelli about the ramping and overshooting going on in the close quarters down there, and the negative impact it was having on the sport of scenario paintball.

Ben gave a lovely speach at the close of that game on how the future of scenario paintball is up to the players, suggesting we take care of the ROF concerns, "so he doesnt have to".

Ben's games are respected as being " top notch" and he stand by his rule
"Semi-automatic mode only, unless specified by the field owner and game director."

Sounds good if you ask me - But Del is running the show.

Good point but as we all know we are going to have someone there to give the sport a bad name.

if not in speed ball you dont need ramp, if you need ramp in rec ball then 1 you need more skill get a pump, 2 throw that $1200 marker out and get a icon if you want semi there is no damn need for ramp in recball.

NPPL, but he could just be wierd and not ramp in ramping tourneys.

edit:
And Thumper, I understand where you are coming from, but most PSP ramping (i believe, i may be wrong though) is activated on the third shot, so you would have to pull the trigger 3 times before it even kicks in. So accidental shots SHOULDN'T happen, although there are some stupid people out there.

That is called bounce, not ramping, two different things.
