Re: It's called dummying...

In Response To: Nothing unexpected here (JonnyOThan)

I'm not going to read through all the replies to see if anyone else has mentioned this...
But anyways, what happened to you isn't a result of Lag, it's just a result of 'Dummying'. It was used quite famously in Halo 2 to exploit MP.
I think this video shows some of the uses of Dummying. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxVWMrX4m_c
It happens most commonly in tight spots, like up in the rafters. If you would of kept crouching in the corner in the rafters, and ran forward, you would eventually 'warp' to the spot where your 'dummy' was.
Hope that makes even a little sense.
