Deflecting the Zoop

For those of you trying to block an inevitable Zoop, I now have the official rules from the Zooper Masters. Sisters of mine, you can thank me later. :) For those of you have the unfortunate circumstance of not knowing what a Zoop is, all I can say is watch your chins.


Question:
Describe to me the rules concerning the blocking of a zoop, especially the timing of said block and when it is allowed.
-Nolan Hilliard

Answer:
I believe this is from section iv, article 2. "A zoop can only be blocked in one manner. The sole approved manner of blocking a zoop is wth a raised hand brought up straight underneath the chin, perpendicular to the waist, or parallel to the line between the eyes. A zoop may not be blocked in any other manner, including, but not limited to ducking, tucking the chin, running, biting, and/or avoidance.
Concerning the timing of a zoop, once the fingers of the zooping hand have passed the midpoint of the chin, directly below the nose or on the line between the two middle teeth and the belly button (in case a nose is crooked), a zoop can on longer be blocked, but must be patiently accepted in stillness and resignation. However, once the fingers of the zooping hand have returned past this point, a block may be positioned in order to protect against a double zoop (or a situation known in some regions as multiple zoopage). The timing of a block can never be too early, as potential zoopies are encouraged to keep a continuous block (the "on guard" position) when in the presence of known zoopers.
