Maybe it's lag affecting him. I'm sure it's been discussed here and other places many times where your crosshairs are dead centre (enemy a couple of virtual feet away) you empty a clip and nothing, they turn around and smoke you.

The other night something even more peculiar happened to me, there was a snipe, can't remember his name now, who was always crounched. I had him cornered, he literally could not move and I fired my smg at him (he was in the tunnel bit on Algiers), emptied the ckip, had to reload (on a CKR server) and it was only then that he actually died.

It happened again on Stalingrad, he was right in the corner at the back behind the sand bags, I ran up the stairs onto that concourse and he hadn't seen me, emptied my smg into his crouching (and not moving) shape, nothing, while I was reloading he got me.

Another guy a couple of seconds later, posted "X - how did I miss you" after suffering the same fate.

I can account for most missed kills as being my wonky aim, or where there's a lot of movement on lag, but twice, the same guy and he wasn't moving, not dodging - definitely not enough for 32 bullets to miss on CKR is too much of a coincidence.

avoiding any refernce to past posts and the amount of bad blood on this post
