I'm a decent sniper and pistoleer, but what I REALLY excel at is dealing with vehicles. On Sidewinder, if the enemy don't have a RL hog or hvy weapon camping the flag and I find a spare ghost, I WILL get it. I'm very good in a banshee (both running many many people over, covering fire, other banshee duels and taking out tanks... all while evading skilled pistol/rocket/AR fire) and fairly good with tanks (anti-air, anti vehicle etc) but I'm ALSO good at taking down enemy vehicles and stealing them with shotguns, pistols, and sniper rifles. I do ok at most games no matter what type (however I usually have a high death score for some reason, so am not a good choice for team slayer). I like to sneak into enemy bases to cap flags alot.

I use heavy weapons vs vehicles, but HATE using them on individuals, especially the fuel rod - too complicated for me (arching aim?! Cannot...compute...) Oh well...

Me personally, my game play varies. Some days I do good, some days I do bad. I tend to do worse in team games. I usually range in the 1st - 4th position with the occasional 7th position...which blows because it makes it harder for me to move up a rank. I refuse to use a sniper rifle because I like to get right in on the action close up. This causes me to have quite a number of deaths.

Don't drink to excess– You might shoot at tax-collectors... and miss

Computer: Power Mac G5 CPU Type: PowerPC G5 (2.2) Number Of CPUs: 2 CPU Speed: 1.8 GHz L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB Memory: 1.25 GB Bus Speed: 900 MHz

ATi Radeon X800 XT Mac Edition
Display Type: LCD Resolution: 1680 x 1050 Depth: 32-bit Color

It depends who I'm playing against– McKeegan, X[IGN], and some others in a slayer match means nobody gets anthing better than 2nd place.

I'm a pretty sneaky flag snatcher, so it's not unusual for me to come in first or near the top in CTF.

I hate KotH, I usually find that by the time I get to the hill my shields are down and I've got 1 bar of health left. Besides that, I find it hard to see through the hill marking barrier, so when on or approaching the hill I can't see a damn thing through it.

I'll do ok on the targeted slayer games because, (I think), many people don't realize you only score when you kill the targeted player, but the players that are killing machines just slay their way to their targets, then slay their target.

In general, slayer bores me. I like an objective–CTF rules, team slayer is ok, Team oddball would be better if more people played it better, (in CTF people seem to have more of a strategy).

What I find funny is how easy it can be to take the flag. One game I was playing, I just ran in to the enemy base and took it!


Isn't that how it always happens? No one flag camps.......this isn't H2. The only hard part of getting a flag is gettng to the enemy base and getting back to yours.

Quadruple posting = Two amputated limbs of my choice served medium rare seasoned with the most expensive spices, with a side of eyeballs and ears.


I saw someone sextuple post once. There's only one limb you can take off for that offense.... the most important one.

I really hope someone doesn't ask me what that means.

To answer the question: Meh, usually between a 5th and a 7th. However, on 16 player games, I go to somewhere below 12. I just can't keep up with the pace.
