That's basically it, though there are several variations. Pro players are taught to slide if hit while running to cover a shot with dirt. Players frequently "play on", continuing to fire when hit, then calling themselves out. The basic thing is there are always more players than refs, so things will slip by.
Also, it used to be that paintball guns in tournaments were limited to one shot per trigger pull, but some ingeneous teams wrote their own software that allowed you to "ramp-up" (allowed more shots than trigger pulls) or go full auto after a specific sequence of trigger pulls had been entered.
