Telford says, “Asking for a paintcheck is asking for a referee to check if a particular player has been hit (e.g. has paint on him/her)… once the player was identified, the ref would go to him/her and declare him/her neutral.” (13). This is important because it keeps all the players honest, if there was not someone enforcing the rule that once you are shot, and the paintball breaks, then…
