    I don't really think you understand what those numbers mean. 100 ping means 100 milliseconds. There are 1000 milliseconds in a second. That means a message takes one tenth of a second to make a round trip from your computer to the world server and back. That means with 100 ping, you have 1.9 seconds to react, not 1. That means you are either lying, or bad.

    The average human reaction time is ~.7-.8 ms so in fact they have about 1.2 seconds to respond.

    The average human reaction time is a fraction of a millisecond? Like, 7 thousandths of a second? I think you mean .7-.8 [sec], not [ms].

    Pedantic, I know :P
