Apparently the old adage about holding the high ground is true. Dartgod sticks cabletech94 from above and moves on to Round 3.

People vote too fast. They need to hear the arguments first. Unless of course it hurts me.

Agree. High ground wins, unless your opponent has a ranged weapon and you don't.

I leave my lofty perch and place and active the smoke bomb, then hide strategically. Cabletech hears the whistle and heads towards it thinking that he is going to disable me with the ammonia filled squirt gun. Before he can discover that I have set a trap for him, I leap from my hiding place and stab him in the neck with my sharp stick...repeatedly until dead.

Hah! I have no neck, so the jokes on you, good day, SIR!!!
