The rocket wasnt rubber, He was healthier than you, and you died first, making 
the quad rocket no longer quad;)  A simple quirk that has affected me many 
times.  

To answer all the morons who believe NOBODY is cheating, Just recently, I found 
out my favourite server was using Impulse 69 to give full weapons.  Now, this 
may seem like no big deal, but the guys who were using it were all local.(Its a 
web cafe server) So not only were they using a cheat, they had pings under 30, 
sometimes as low as 12;(  Now thats pathetic.  Who knows what other impulses 
there were.  So now I have made a script file to exec every impulse command up 
to 255.  After confronting the admin, he removed the cheats, so I will not name 
the server here.  

Botom line, there are quirks and such that may give the appearance of cheating, 
make yourself a script file like myself, or even try  changing ur name to the 
person who's suspect of cheating  See if u get the cheat urself.

Just my two cents worth.
