Server Selection

[stant0s]

I've just done some tests on server selection, because when I select the closest/lowest ping (London) the majority of my suspect deaths end up being people who live far away - mainly Russia. I don't suspect them for cheating, but I add them and ask where they live. 

So, I thought I'd do the same, but in reverse - I only select Russian servers with 100+ ping. Guess what, I'm nailing people. Literally, the shots I know should hit when I'm on the London servers but don't, absolutely do on the Russian servers when my ping is 110~.  I feel dirty doing this, but now feel forced to due to the sheer amount of BS deaths I suffer when on London servers. 

I'm actually thinking that hte best course of action would be to lower the ping limit further to 80ms. Or just remove server selection and it has to prioritise lower ping servers.  Contrary to other opinions!

Anyone tried the same? It's quite pronounced for me. Or is it a placebo?
