%Bunny (One person.)

%One player volunteers to be the Bunny. To give the Bunny some kind

-1. The Bunny gets a semiautomatic paintgun plus a garbage
can lid
or other device to use as a shield.
-2. The Bunny carries as much paint as he's comfortable with
but
the Hunters are restricted to only twenty paintballs each for the
game.

1. If the Bunny has a semiauto/shield option, hits on the shield do
not
count as an elimination.

3. A signal will be given so that the bunny knows when the game
has
started.

paint he
is out of the game.
