Let's sum up some of the best excuses said by ThinkTankers. They seem to be pretty good on it, don't you agree? I'll start by saying probably the most used excuse lag. Please post more of them.

- I have lag. (sometimes said with capitalized letters)
- I don't trust my teams mates.
- My team mates sucks.
- Uneven teams.
- It's 6 vs 4.
- Bullets dosen't come out of my turret
- I can't see my bullets
- People are teleporting
- I thought I was green (when he was really blue)
- My connection is slower than others.
- I have higher ping than others.

-We lost because we had Sniper on our team.

Sniper

" I have lag. (sometimes said with capitalized letters)"

I love it!

How bout "its easy to be the only red, cause then you just sit around and camp"

But I really do have an ass pimple. :(

My favorite...

"I'm drunk!"

I use this often.

^LOL
How about :
My mom called me !
(that happens to offen)
@BC
LOL!!!

I have tally on my team...

"Ermm,excuses,uh,I don't use excuses!"

"I thought he was on the purple team!"

"I had a brief power outage"

"ACK! Get this cat off my keyboard!"

I use those.

Except the last one,that really happens sometimes. XD

Hahahahahaha legendary I like the cat one and the purple team excuses XD XD XD XD XD XD

I am drunk...is not an excuse.

With me, it is usually a statement of fact. And a warning that I am about to engage in endless chatter and camping.

*whinny voice*

_{(after a camping score) "I wasnt camping I just spawned thier."
" I was too busy thinking adout scrum"
"I was following you"}

^ good point..

YOU TRY PLAYING WITH 8 KIDS ON YOUR LAP
and
I'M PLAYING WITH JEKIL AND HEKIL ON MY TEAM

- RADAR LAG, said by a famous TTer after I zipped past him. I was lmao for a while on this one. XD

I just got my period!!!
(Said by yours truly in the middle of a heated team scrum game a few months ago).... All true though, not an excuse.

:-)

People are shooting too much.

You know so many of these ring a bell.. I think I have used them all. Course in MY case its always been true... Now the other day the lag aided me!! Poor light got killed before he/she unlagged. Hehehe.. I do have another one. " that is sooo wrong" used by me when little gnat tanks push my MUCH heavier tank off cliffs and ridges.. Lol. PLEASE fix this..

"Help. I'm stuck."
can be said when stuck in one of those rock outcroppings with a space in the middle, or when you just get stuck on a tree.

EDIT:
@doc
you've used the period one?

I think I also heard a "my cat is on my keyboard" tonight, but I failed to get a screenie

^ Actually I know a guy whos cat always come to lie on his keyboard when hes playing on computer. :)

^ Does he suck at TT? %)

^ He dosen't even play TT. XD

^ I bet he'd suck if he did :o

More excuses...

My cat goes in front of my screen while im playing sometimes but I just shove the cat off the table and dont coplain. :)

Man,if shoving your cat off your keyboard was that easy,I'd be much better than I am now.

But the cat is too dang stubborn!

I'm thinking of getting a water pistol,ward off the cat.

-This game is full of Freebies!
-I'm too skillful for you guys, I'm off to find a skillful server, Bye.
-Wow good score for a noob
-I only just got up
-I havn't had my morning cigarette (Truthful most of the time for me)
-The phone won't stop ringing !
