I love a challenge, but when you get someone who is average and plays it for fun, tried to play a nice game online, and comes up against someone who has absolutely no life except on UT-ONLINE then the fun goes away VERY QUICKLY.
I know that when I play someone, if they kill the hell out of me ( 99% of the time ) then I move off pretty sharpish...
However, when I play someone who is obviously a few levels below me, I enjoy the game and I make sure that they get a few in... I enjoy these games more cos of multiple reasons...
1 - I know I can beat them if I wanted to
2 - I am keeping the game going by being better by "JUST ENOUGH" to get them hooked and wanting to beat me.
If I am so obviously better than them, what would I gain by just trouncing them into oblivion every 10 seconds? - how long would they stay?
I have my own LAN and I set my own rules for anyone who comes to play...
Of course, we also have the FragFests too... After all, thats what its all about.
