Swordball!

Enjoying Halo 2 via Xbox Live. It seems that even the idiots can't ruin that game.

Played some Swordball with mearls (It WAS you, right, Mike?) the other day. Swordball is Oddball (carry a skull for x amount of seconds to win) with only swords.

Discovered a new strategy. If you're about to get smoked with the pointy in swordball, jump off a railing. You'll die, sure, but you'll gain a couple precious seconds while you fall, and your opponent will have to run back to the ball's respawn point to get any score for themselves.

This has been another... useless fact.

Swordball is *the* most fun thing in the game.

Yup, that was me. I'm Pink Daisy.

I saw you use that strategy - it's a good idea, since it takes the ball a few seconds to re-spawn, and you know where it's going to end up.
