There is also a bind that changes your netspeed while your playing, with the press of a key. So essentially you could take the enemy flag, in ctf, and hit the bind to make your netspeed 500 (laggy as fuck), 500 will make you lag across the map all the way back to your base, then you could change it back to non laggy (10-20k) and cap the flag. This shit has been done many times in overtime CTF matches and it ruins the game.
By the way, im runnin 800x600, theres no other way to have it

Hey, Goliath, yeah, I run in 800x600 - the higher res don't add anything except lower frame rates, so this is how I like it, too
I really do think that key binding the piston is cheating - it's a tool set up for the player after the game is released - i.e. it's not standard - so it's bs in my book. But you are probably right - everyone's probably using it, and you'll need to use it if you're in competitions. Oh, well.
I never heard of the netspeed thing - what does it mean, and why does it create the lag effect? Does it force the computer to accept/send info at a slower rate to make it seem like you just jumped on a 56k? Nasty trick. Boo.
