Pinball heh...

Right.

Ping is supposedly a "measurement" of the amount of time it takes for it to receive and send signals. The higher the ping the longer it takes. So in a way,If 2 people have equal or close ping, it makes the computers send and receiver signals at nearly the same time, resulting in less lag(There will be some, but not as much).
