[split] Bench Blacklist

[Bloodsport]

For those who are having trouble interpreting the demo, please lookup the thread on Thorite, most of the same points apply. The most important aspect to look for is what roflcopter mentioned about him not considering other options. In fact, he regularly fails to guard other entrances. This is a tactic that would normally be suicide on tosok ac_desert, but yet we see that he always picks the right one. The clearest indication of a wall hack is when someone NEVER ends up picking the wrong doorway to cover. Some people (like Undead) might believe they never make a wrong choice, but even the very best players occasionally take a wrong turn and get caught from the side. Try watching a demo of a skilled but honest player on this map and mode and you will see the difference.

I see some comments on there being enough noise to predict movement. TOSOK on this map is great for catching wall hackers because there are no pickup sounds to help follow movement. If you watch a player following someone based on sound then you will see them adjust their direction when a new sound is heard. That is not the case in this demo.

Although it is not possible to rule out the use of teamspeak etc here, the apparent precision of Bench's knowledge seems to go beyond that. It would be very useful if one of the other players could come forward and confirm that they were using voice communication so that we can check this.
