Cheating indeed. If I cheated I'd win a lot more games than I do on public servers.

Ok, for those who want to know this is what happened.

If any of you have read the shotguns, snipers, etc etc thread (4 pages long now, can't miss it) that Hannover started you'd know that Siggi and myself had a disagreement on something.

Well, we agreed to play a game when we could. Rigz saw him on his own server 'Siggi's ADSL server' or similar, and I went on to give him a game.

Was fairly good-willed to start. Once we got going, Siggi got me a couple of times, I got him a couple of times.

He out-thought me maybe 3-4 times in all. I won't go into how many times I out-shot him. He knows how many.

At the time I started there was 3-4 other players all ranging from 100-350 ping (ADSL servers aren't exactly what you'd call stable) and Siggi had 0 ping.

Suffice to say the other players got regularly raped. It started with me and perhaps 3 others on Allies and Siggi with one other on Axis.

Siggi racked up a few kills (if I died the rest died shortly after, if I didn't die, we won). Then Rigz joined the server and joined Ally.

So it was what you would call unbalanced in numbers, but then other than Rigz and I Siggi didn't have much trouble clearing the 2-300 pingers up.

In fact, to start, Rigz and I let them go first to find out where Siggi was hiding

Eventually those players got bored of being ritually slaughtered and it was pretty much just Siggi, Rigz and myself. The only other player was poor olli, who pinged at 200+. I felt sorry for him, he died a lot.

Now, I'd be the first to admit that was unfair teams. It was, as Siggi didn't win many (if any) rounds after that point. Either I'd get close and kill him with my SMG, or Rigz would snipe him from range after I'd died to Siggi or not.

Of all the times Siggi died I'd have to say I killed him the most. In my opinion he wasn't a bad shot at all, very sneaky player.

On about two occasions Siggi had killed me and I was watching Rigz in Spectator, and he sniped Siggi when he was very static and not moving at all.

The two times that Siggi was actually moving and Rigz shot him I was still alive, so didn't actually see it.

We didn't boast or taunt Siggi once.

I know Rigz doesn't cheat, and I have seen some of his shooting with the sniper rifle. Like I said, he has practiced it thoroughly (he rarely uses any other weapon) and is a very good shot.

So then Siggi starts to accuse Rigz of cheating and it all mud-slided from there. Rigz gets accused of cheating in Half-life by newbies, and some not-so-newbies, all the time. He ignores them.

The fact of the matter is, both I and Rigz know we don't cheat. That's all that matters to us.

We don't really care what Siggi, or anyone else says or thinks. We don't cheat, and I will not reply to any other post on this thread about the matter.
