SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

: It seems good. You just need to find the good hill
: time/frag ratio, but that pretty practical. I think it
: need to be beta-tested ;-)
Ok, I've played lots of KotH games back in the day, especially on Desperate Measures (if you don't know.. then you need to be smacked--I've always been a FM whore). When I played it was usually with 3 or more people, and there was almost always someone who would try to "spoil" your game. It wasn't necessarily because they would play that way ALL OF THE TIME, it's just because they happened to be losing that round and knew, given the time that was left, that they had no chance in hell of winning. So.. why not make it more difficult for those who are? Makes sense to me, if you're even going to bother playing the rest of the game rather than giving up. Now.. people who play KotH like that constantly deserve to get their ass physically beaten. However, if you can prove that your accuracy is much greater than their ability to dodge shots then you should atleast flaunt it. If it pisses other players off, then so be it. It's part of the game.
