When I saw this, I thought it was about zombie teamed games... but to answer the question, I absolutely hate "zombies" or as I like to call them, CHEATERS.
While I understand that not all shots are noticed, it is a far different thing when a player out and out cheats. The biggest reason I left paintball, after 18 years of playing, was because of the constant cheating.
Since we, the ARRA, operate our own field, it is easy to take care of this problem. First, we speak to the individual and after that, we simply ban them from attending games and operations that we host. Further, we co-operate with several other teams in and around the area and we keep tabs on cheaters.
Basically, if you are a cheater in Arkansas, you will get known very quickly as a cheater... which means no one will allow you to attend games and events anywhere in the entire state, except maybe other cheaters.
You might call Arkansas a "zombie free zone".
The ARRA team does not associate with liars, cheats, and thieves, and we are doing our share to see that these people have no future in airsoft in our area.
Sorry, I am not going to waste a perfectly good airsoft round on a cheater. It is cheaper and more fun to kick the bum off the field and to help make sure that he/she never plays airsoft in this area again... so much for their high priced toys.
And yes, a zombie themed game sounds like a crap load of fun. I think that there is one going on in PA... though it is to far away for me to make.

Please don't call them Zombies, it gives the undead a bad reputation.
I believe most "cheaters" are unaware of being hit due to adrenaline or too much gear.
The ones that are told about complaints and do nothing and continue to fail to call hits,
warrants censure.
This is why I use sword and knife, they don't have to call it when I am standing behind them. for the rest of you just hold down the trigger till they scream! lol
