I can't help but think there is some exceptionally clever joke some how woven in between the title of the topic, the picture, and his caption beneath the picture.

But I don't see it / get it; does anybody else?

EDIT: Oh, the pings (cleverly edited to make it look like I figured this out before Kyle said it)

For a moment there I thought it was something related to Wild Fortress :rat:

Although to be honest, there can be something uniquely interesting about playing with a super high ping.

Yup, just experienced that in Racing. Had a 1000 Ping and was still able to play. Also, if you are an Aussie in Sumo, you got some nice 'extra' Rubber. It's also a nice Challenge then because you can't predict the Actions of the Enemies well.

Hey Carnage.

It sucks to see horrible internet connection keep a great player like you from playing. All I can say is switch service and make sure you aren't getting piggybacked :P.

Hey everyone. Playing with a high ping is only fun for a little while because it's strangely fun, but then you look at the scoreboard and realize you wasted about 20 minutes doing nothing. :)

And yeah I was gonna box the pings so people would know what I meant, but I only realized I didn't do it after I already uploaded the picture, and it would've been a hassle to edit it and re-upload it, so...yeah. Was hoping you clever guys would know what I meant, yahknow.
