They had all the flags, therefore they are allowed to attack your uncap.

But to place that clay he had to run well into uncap. Is that allowed?
Let me get back to you on this. I want to run this by the rest of the admins. Even I'm a little conflicted with this scenario because of the policies with our rules, which are the following:
We normally wouldn't punish for something like this unless if the enemy was placing claymores/mines on the edge/in the uncap while they didn't have all flags captured. This can in some cases trap players inside the uncap, such as on the map Pearl Market, when they choose to spawn there in something like the AMTRAC.
In this situation, I would like to assume that it was a fair kill and no rules were violated, but I could be mistaken. Again, let me get back to you on this.
- Enemy allowed to fire into uncap when all flags are captured
- "Stealing vehicles from the enemy uncap is allowed, however you're not allowed to defend yourself while in their uncap."
- This policy may come into play because of the fact that you were technically engaged from within your uncap. What might not allow for this policy to be enforced in this case was the fact that there are no vehicles present on Metro to be stolen.

So here's the update that I have received from some of the other admins:
Mining uncap with claymores/mines etc. is typically not permitted. We've agreed that it is without a doubt a risky tactic because of the fact that your team could capture the nearest flag and that claymore/mine would potentially result in an unwarranted uncap kill.
However, with your specific situation, it was agreed that because the enemy team had captured all the flags, it was deemed as an acceptable kill.
In short, my previous decision stands and no action will be taken at this time.
