Off subject.

Ducky what is your counterstike tag m8 ?

Well the clan I played (CS:S) for has all but gone so I'm not using a tag - just the name 'ducKy' - what about yourself?

We could form an IDNetters clan if there are a few more players out there??

looks like everything is ok, i think it could be the server i play on being unable to cope with too many players. btw the ping shown here is not accurate lol
appologies to Idnet if blamed them, i`m old and can`t remember

It's probably to do with the Maidenhead server. I really don't trust Speedtest.net these days.

It can certainly be optimistic.
