That way you'll win a lot, experience a lot less lag then your adversary, and become a worse player since you won't be able to deal with lag when you're using a dial up and fighting on a join game.[/quote]

I use that on a 56K. O_o! I could never join a game nor accept a challenge, only host, is that because I have the background off and the music down to listin to my own music? If that is, then I'll turn it off for this lame attempt at having less FrPS.
