...and I was the one being assassinated. Has this ever happened to you?
The video is in my file share if you don't believe me.
I was playing with some pretty bad people though, but it's still an assassination none the less.

EDIT: I punched the guy. (For those who might think it was a grenade.)

I assassinated the person assassinating me, before. I think it has to do with lag, as I was going for an assassination (right behind him) when the other player supposedly started assassinating me.

Two makes there more than speakers.

Somehow I ninja'd the person who assassinated me.
I was confuzzled for about a minute.

The 343 forums suck. They're full of retarded kids and mods who got butthurt in the B.net forums for being told that they're bad.

Good for you, would you like a medal?

Cuz you already got one for it.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I was punching an enemy who was standing right in front of me right before another enemy assassinated me, and the guy assassinating me died.
It is awesome.
