Can you use electronic markers in tourneys?

Is it just illegal to use full auto in tourneys?

You can use electronic markers in tournaments... but no full auto, semi only.

No the only firing mode allowed in tourneys is semi-auto.

im pretty sure that the rule roadkill was talking about now exists...apparently you HAVE to fire three shots at TRUE semi auto without ramping/bounce then you can ramp or bounce as much as you want you can even shoot full auto!!! However, if you stop firing, you have to shoot the three semi-shots again.

X-Ball's rules are slacked up a little bit from airball. I think you can use ramping boards... I think.

Roadkill, I think Tom got caught with his ramping Shocker at Cup, so he used his shops Karnivors.

As for the thread makers question; No, you can only use semi-auto in tourneys. I know a league accepts ramping and bounce boards though.

Using full-auto takes the fun and skill out of paintball. I would have more respect for someone who can reach 20BPS without a cheater board than someone who reaces 25BPS with a cheater board.

You can use electronic markers in tournaments, as long as they are on semi-auto mode though.

No. That's how the NXL ramper for dm4's works, but that's not xball rules.
