The low ping rules again. Lets play sometime-- Friday, Saturday, Sunday? Good way to work off the Thanksgiving turkey.

Have you ever gotten the "monster kill" ?

I have done it a couple times.

Xayd... did you decide to ditch the Geforce 2 or what?

Yeah, kinda.

I put it back on E-Bay, some guy bid about 175 bucks on it, so I'm waiting on payment, meantime still using my Voodoo3. I noticed Voodoo5's on sale at Best Buy for 200 bucks so it looks like I'll get a sweet deal on one, probably about what I paid for the Geforce256, so it'll end up a wash cash-wise.

I've also noticed a big improvement since going to win2000 pro. I get less frames per second by about 10, but virtually none dropped (in UT, SoF, and Rune anyways). The dip in framerate when a big fight gets started is less as well.

The only way I could get a Godlike or a Monster Kill is by sniping people on the Facing Worlds arena. That is pretty cheap, in most people's opinions. The most I've gotten using other weapons is Dominating. :-(

That one was on Tempest, which is always a good shock rifle map. Lots of sharp turns and easy to get away if someone pops in behind you. Was on the server with the same folks for about three hours, and that was the last game they played. I guess it boiled down to I was mad at one of em for trying to play sniper on Deck16 in the previous match (hint hint Cymbeline...), and the rest of em were slowing down a bit after playing for so long.

Xayd, I have that tempest map and it is a nice map.

Is there any new map packs out ? I do not like to download individual maps.

Nope, none to speak of really that I've seen. Only maps I've run across here of late have been custom maps from an individual server.
