    I spoke with Nomy a while back about this
    I'm sure he doesn't mind me posting that.

    It seems that normal gun toss is simply: pick a spot, forward with W, jump, throw, furthest gun wins.. anything else is custom, including strafing and the invisible wall on spy.

    I still think normal should include strafing because it's just part of a jump in my eyes (leave it to the bhop/climb nerd) but what nomy says is what nomy says.

    I see where you're coming from, but wait until a warden commands the pool jump on minecraft. At most 1 in 8 players make the jump i.e. can strafe, that gives you an 87.5% chance of winning in any given gun toss if you can strafe well. And actually.. if you pick players you know can't strafe, it's essentially 100%.

    Yeah games are supposed to wittle down the Ts until 2 are left. LR is supposed to be a fair 1 versus 1 (right?).

    Well it is fair if you're both allowed to strafe. And also the games the Ts have to play are supposed to be fair as well.

    If you can strafe and they can't, your chances of winning are 100%. I don't think that's fair do you? Now if they can refuse because they can't strafe, that's fair.

    You got me on the second point.

    Well anyone can strafe, just because they don't know how doesn't necessarily make it unfair. If I don't know how to drop my gun then your chances of winning gun toss are 100%, doesn't seem very fair? But it's just because I don't know how to do something, not because the game is actually skewed in anyone's favor.

    I think and thought normal guntoss is jumping off your spray and dropping the gun theres no rule on not strafing and iv never been told by admins players about this so I find it not really custom in my eyes and you don't have to strafe to win most the time you can win just using w...

    Bunnyhop and Strafe are rules the Terrorist sets.

    For example "From my spray" is a rule to throw the gun from their spray. CTs cannot decline that. Same goes for the rule of, no jumping, bunnyhopping or strafing. CT's cannot decline "no jumping" on the basis of it being a custom... We've never included strafing/bunny hopping as a custom LR.

    @Nomy

    Can you read over my post and let me know what you think, there are a few pay admins struggling with whether to listen to mummy or daddy. (I'm the dad of course).
