With the 8 man football field being 80 yards I am assuming none of the schools have actually moved their goal posts and use the 50 for the 40 at midfield.....if they go to kick a FG do they scoot the ball 10 yards towards the goal post to get the right measurement or do they kick it an extra 10 yards? Also thinking PAT's would be kicked from inside the end zone of an 8 man field.

I would also assume there is no such thing as a "fake FG" as the additional 10 yards would put them in first down territory or possible the end zone.

I have not watched much 8 man football.  But if it is like 6 man they don't attempt may field goals or even extra points.  I think it is hard to block long enough to get a good kick off.
What I like about 6 man is the QB must either pass or hand the ball off.  The QB can not advance the ball.  I think the QB can in 8 man. This rule in 6 man forces more players to be part of the game.  I would think you see a lot of QB runs in 8 man.
