Now nothing in here is new... these rules were published in July 2005, and it was annouced that we were using them in Jan 06 (maybe earlier)
Team Captians, please ensure you have a copy of these and all of your team have read and understood them.
We do have a mixture of experianced and inexperianced refs, please show them the respect that they deserve. They are giving up their holiday weekend and spending all day in the rain to ensure your event runs smoothly. If you have any problems with any of the refs, please tell me straight away and we will ensure it is deal with swiftly.
All refs will be wearing black and white striped ref jerseys, I will be wearing a black and yellow striped one
Important things to note(and will be repeated at captians meeting) for those too lazy to read the rules properly - these are all taken from the Millenium rules linked above:

Because Evil Monkey says so!
- Games are 7 min long
- you must have a barrel bag, barrel plugs are not permitted
- games will start with 10 seconds being called, all refs will raise one arm, at game on a siren will sound and refs will drop their arm. This will give all players a clear aural and visual signal of the game starting.
- We are going to be very lenient on the modded earpieces/soft earing of gogs rule unless the gogs look to be unsafe (at head refs discretion), keep our gogs rolled down while on the field (i.e. JT proflex).
- At end of game person hanging the flag will be chronoed before flag hang, if hot, they will be eliminated.
- at end of game all live players must go to nearest ref to be checked, if you walk away (like some teams have in the past) they will be treated as elimited
- do not plug your marker at end of game untill instructed to by the head ref, if you do it before hand you will be eliminated
- only the capitan is to dispute any calls after the game, this is to be directed at the head ref, anyone who argues with any of the referees will be eliminated.
- at the end of the game you may turn off your loader, you may not turn your marker off untill instructed by a ref, if you do so you may be eliminated...
- do not pick up paint off the ground ;-)
- you signal your elimination by putting one hand on your head THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO DO SO, calling "out" does not signal your elimination and you are still fair game, neither does raising your hand. I garuntee that if players don't take not of this that someone will attempt a dead mans walk on them :-P (Marty, I'm looking your way :-P)
- Markers are to be put down OUTSIDE of the deadbox, left on (loader may be turned off) if you are eliminated
- barrel socks are left off untill after the game, don't plug your markers untill then
- if you call "hit" or similar you will be treated as playing on, make sure you call your elim by putting your hand ON your head.
- game starts with marker barrel touching the flag station, it doesn't matter if you bring it over the top of your head (I know the aussies gave u shit for it, its not int he rules, so we don't care)
- please try not to have clear loaders, and please don't cover them in stickers. This will be at the refs discretion (and is covered in the rules).
But these won't be problems, because I have faith that all players will have read and understood the rules, and all players will play fairly. In fact - the refs shouldn't be that busy at all - because we have faith in you all.
Please ask any questions you have hear, and I will make sure they are answered both here and covered at the captains meeting.
