back in the day, I tried to play on Barry World Quake 3 servers as I knew a lot of brits playing Q3A, but I could never ping under 500 even with me on cable, trying to play with 500 ping against players with 20-50 ping was suicide (especially trying to use the rail gun) I used to play on the East Coast of Americas servers as I was in the CTF clan 9L, it wasn't too bad, could average 250-300 ping.
of course the aussie servers were better, my ping on them was 15-20, and as I played competition OSP Q3A CTF for over 6 years I was fairly handy ;)
but thats all behind me now, my reflexes are to slow for comps now,
much to the delight of my wife, many a night I would be playing/practicing with my aussie clan from 8pm till 2-3 am.
normally played/practiced five nights a week with Sunday night being the
comp/league night.
edit:option 3 for the win
