Dirty Tricks
Bribe Ref (Global)
Each team can bribe the ref once per half. When a ref is bribed he may look the other way and not call penalties against the team that bribed him, while calling nonsense penalties against the opposing team. These penalties are called at the worst possible time, like after scores. It’s easy to tell when a ref is bribed because he calls silly, nonsensical penalties and has “BRIBED” floating above his head during the game. Since bribed refs have no loyalties, a team can bribe an already bribed ref.
Ref Attack (Global)
When it’s clear a ref is bribed he has to be eliminated, and that’s where the Ref Attack dirty trick comes into play. When a Ref Attack play is called, the team will jump offside prior to the snap and attack the ref. When a Ref dies, the bribe dies with him and a new referee will come out onto the field and take his place. Calling this dirty trick guarantees a penalty on the attacking team. The player on the opposing team can take control of the ref and try to escape by running him out of bounds.
