Spining Spit?
« on: April 24, 2007, 06:55:53 AM »
I was in a Niki last night. Got within 200 of a Spit when it started "cartwheeling" and spining very fast. It even stoped in place to do this. Anyone ever see this before?

It sounds like he got too slow and put it into a flat spin.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Nope, not a flat spin. Instantly went into a pinwheel effect with no change in altitude.

Maybe you found a GV hole in the sky.  I have gone into that kind of spin on the ground..

Joo got PWN3D!!!

naw, It was probably high lag followed by a disco. I experience that myself from time to time with my new comp. After I get shot or shot at, my screen just starts spinning and my comp. freezes.
