How about 1 more patch, IW?  Let me specify the max ping I'm willing to play at.  If you can't match me at that ping, don't try higher, just start over at 50.

I for one would rather wait 10-15 minutes between games than get stuck in games with players halfway around the world.  I don't know what you've done, but the last few days have been the worst of the worst.  It used to bother me to see my killer right after I died.  Now I have to use the killcam to see my killer.  And forget about getting kills, I can't even get hits.  I'm down to 5-6 kills per game, and those are typically with nades tossed randomly and killstreak rewards I get by shooting down flying stuff with my stinger.
