i usually save most pocket rockets and mines to use on the ball if i can to manipulate it, rather than kill others. the goo i almost always use just for killing :}
i admit, it does take patience and understanding to play the game as well, for even i often do stupid crap, usually by mistake, like bump someone on my team who has the ball and they lose control. often times, when a ball is on the other side of the map and seems busied by all players near it, i go back to my team's side to get soem powerups, and as i do that, i move camera view around to try and watch for there the ball goes. then suddenly, i find myself colliding into a teammate all alone way back there, and they are like "wtf are you doing!" because they think i was ramming them purposefully when i just had my camera turned around <,,< other times there is a bit of a fight for ball control, like many there by the ball on both sides, and i try to at least edge the ball in the direction wanted and can result in me messing up anotheer teammate's effort..and it can just be maddening x,,x what i dislike, though, is getting yelled at for messing up someone ball controll because someone else pushed me, i lost control of my vehicle, and hit the teammate with the ball.
hehe, oh well, i try my best as i can, and mistakes are just that. very little makes me mad at others...but when the ball seems to be always forced in illogical ways, and against my team, then i get annoyed.
oh, and losing is no issue, i don't care. but i really don't like losing without at least one score for our team :o

, yah...its pretty easy to get distracted and make a mistake, but its also pretty obvios when thats the case....its when i get bumped by the same person multiple times a map that i start to get annoyed. Hmm(looks at calander) 28th...7 more days til i get home(8 if you count the fact i have to go back in tim a whole day) you guys will probably see me on the 4th(if wifes parents are still around) if not then the 5th(wife has school) so be watching, and there is no shame in going to another server for CB if the majority doesnt want to play, I know me and zombie..sloppy, m3rc...a few others have gone to some of the other servers with a large map list and played there....that way you get as much carball as you like without invasion, and its pretty rare that anyone else joins in, and its pretty obvious when its an ELITE baller. Not to mention its still the thrill of playign against people you know. Not sure if you got skype Drae, or a Mic...cant recall you ever talking....but might be worth looking into if you dont, and might be worth sending me if you do 
one day if i ever learn what one needs to do to get it working, one day you and others may hear me speak :}
