@ OP

If you are getting the advantage chances are you are the one that is lagging.

everybody was lagging but i think I was lagging less then the other because when I lag playing as the demoman I can't manage to get a single kill with the sticky bombs but this time it was different

On TF2 for me, the lagging person moves like a stuttering ghost, making it hard for anyone to hit them.

Do you ever wonder if lag is a factor?

 

You bet it is!

I'm a below average FPS player. Sure I like them well enough, but with a death count typicaly twice my kill count I'm far from the best. Unless I'm sitting in a turret.

Back around '99 I was one of the realy early broadband adopters, almost eveyone else had modems. I didn't even have a fancy computer or high end graphics card.  I kicked ass because of my low latency connection. 

I miss the days of having an unfair advantage :(



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
