So, fun story since I think a lot of people who now frequent these forums don't know it, this was actually an online match (Cal-I finals) that coL played from the Lethal Gamers LAN center. Check-Six forced them to play on a Socal server because we didn't want to play them with 10 ping to a Dallas server. Greg "coL.chaos[dt]" Conlon would later claim that they were lag spiking pretty badly, I can't confirm or deny those allegations because I wasn't there and their ping didn't fluctuate on the scoreboard during the match. However, I think the final frag tally went 2:1 for us in the Cal-I finals, and they obviously played a lot better in the CPL finals, so I wouldn't doubt that there was lag involved.
