8. Other stuff /8000
--------------
Stuff that didn't fit anywhere else as good as here.

--------------------------
8b. Description of Rules /8002
--------------------------

1. Shot Clock- You will get called for this foul if you don't shoot for
twenty-four seconds, the ball must be released from the players hands AND touch
the rim in order not to get a shot clock violation.

Penalty: Other team gets the ball

2. Out of Bounds- The Ball goes out of one of the outermost lines on the court.
(If you're the ballhandler, it's if your foot goes out of this boundary
marking.)

Penalty: Other Team gets the ball

3. Backcourt Violation- Once you enter your half of the court, you can't pass
or, run back to the other half. If you do, you will be called for this
violation.

Penalty: Other Team gets ball

4. 8 second half-court clock- Once you inbound the ball in the backcourt, you
have 8 seconds to get the ball into your half, otherwise you'll be called for
this violation.

Penalty: Other Team gets ball

5. 5 second inbound clock- you have 5 seconds to inbound the ball. If you don't
inbound the ball in this time, you will be called for this violation.

Penalty: Other Team gets ball

6. 3 Seconds in the key- If you stay in the "key" (The usually colored part)
for more than three seconds without shooting, the ref will blow his whistle.

Penalty: Other team gets ball

7. Defensive 3 second violation- On defense, you can't stay in the "key" more
than 3 seconds without actively guarding them, or else you'll be called for
this violation.

Penalty: Other Team gets automatic free throw (1) and ball afterward.

8. 5 seconds back to Basket- On offense, if you have your back to the basket
(usually in a post-up situation) for more than 5 seconds, you'll be called for
this.

Penalty: Other Team gets ball

9. Foul Out- If any single player accumulates a certain number of fouls
(Default or "on" is 6, can be set to any lower number).

Penalty: The player that is fouled out cannot play the rest of the game.

10. Charging/Blocking- Charging: Charging is if you knock over another player
during a dunk, lay-up, etc. You must be standing totally still for a charge.

Correction by Ravenous Superthug: a player may go for a dunk, lay-up, lean-in
shot, etc. as you said but there is a big difference between a charge and a
block. A charge is where your player has to be standing completely still in a
set position (holding L) OUTSIDE of the half circle that is in the key, a
players foot may not be on that line if you want a charge.

Blocking: A blocking foul is the same as above, except that the player who was
knocked over was moving.

Penalties: Penalties are decided by type. A CHARGING FOUL IS AGAINST THE
OFFENSE, while a BLOCKING FOUL IS AGAINST THE DEFENSE. A foul is called against
the player who committed the foul. In a charging situation, the ball is turned
over, in a blocking call, the opposing team gets two free throws (one if the
shot went in)

11. Pushing- Pushing is a different name for "Intentional foul". If on an
Intentional Foul will be called. If off, no call will be made and the ball will
come out of the ballhandelers
hands. (Cheap to
the infinite power)

Penalties: A. Foul will be called against a player. B. Other team gets ball. C.
2 Free Throws if over foul limit.

12. Reaching In Foul- When a player is attempting to steal the ball he can only
touch the ball. If the player touches any other part of the opponent, then,
you'll be called for reaching in.

Penalty: Player who committed the foul receives a foul against them. Other team
gets ball.

13. Shooting Foul- If a player who's attempting a block touches anything but
the ball, he is called for this foul.

Penalties: Foul against the person who committed it. Other Team automatically
gets two Free Throws. (Exception: One free throw if original shot goes in)

14. Goaltending- After a shot is released you can't touch it before it touches
the rim. If you do you will be called for this foul.

Correction by Ravenous Superthug:

A player can touch the ball before it hits the rim after the shot BUT he can
not touch it when the ball is on a downward motion towards the rim. You can
still block a high-arching shot that way or a high-arching lay-up Also, if a
person shoots the ball and the shot is NOWHERE near the hoop, then you can
snatch it out of the air. Example, if Shaq takes a 3 pointer to try to make a
buzzer beater or something else, then most likely it will not get close to the
rim, enabling you to snatch that ball out of the air.


Penalty: The shot counts.

15. Traveling- If you attempt a shot, you have to release it (or pass it)
before you land, otherwise you'll be called for traveling.

Penalty: Other Team gets ball.
