Although as masta hints, it is theoretically possible under the right circumstances to spike using mk1 tech, in 99.9% of pug cases, juckto has the right advice.

Usually though, "skill" is used to covertly mean "match the game exactly to my level of competence." Anyone who is at all worse than me should fail utterly (and humorously!) and anyone better is clearly too caught up in the game and their opinions shouldn't count.

I have noticed a lot most crossnanning lately. Maybe it is more crossnanning instead of less nan killing. People have been complaining about not killing nans since I started flying.

It's true, nans are getting better.

I don't see this as a bad thing.

Are the players of allegiance finally learning?

This might force me to return to God since he has answered my prayers.

After long hours stuying the subject i have come to a conclusion why people won't STFN.
First you must understand that voobs play not to win, but to get kb and have high kills.
You assume that like you they can shoot and kill scouts easily. from their experience they shoot scouts only to have someone else get the kill.
So what they do is shoot the bbr the whole time, figuring no one could damage it more and they hope everyone else deals with nans etc so the bbr actually dies.
This way these voobs get 3 kills instead of 1 or none, and if the bomb run happens to survive, most times everyone including the comm is too busy on d to actually see who shot the bbr.
This is done for the same reason that people would rather run home and save their kb while on a miner rush, or those who rather pod home to save their kb.
That's why this doesn't happen in SGs, because people their realize it's a team game.
