Why so many ties?

[Binkley]

Recently, I've been getting more and more "ties" where an opposing player and I simultaneously kill each other. These are mostly (probably all) close quarters situations. The only thing I can think of that has changed on my end is that I switched from wireless to a wired net connection. Would the lower latency affect this? Just curious as to how often this happens to others and does it happen more with higher speed connections?
