Halo server

Not sure if this is in the right place, but I am just curious of this bug.

I was in a server on ce with another guy and we decided to use melee just for a change, so what it was if we both killed each other at the same time with melee on the server text it would say,

 

You was killed by a bullet

You was killed by guardians

 

Now I was the player a bullet and the other guy was called  Llibert II, so just wondered if anyone`s got an explanation for the name change,

Tiddy-bits:

This is a bug with Halo PC that has always existed. I'm assuming it's because the melee attack damage is being inflicted after the attacking player has died, and because the attacking player's body is no longer considered the player's, then Halo doesn't know how the player taking damage has died. If Halo cannot explain why a player dies, then it does "%s was killed by the guardians" where %s is the player's name. This effect happens with AI as well, because AI is not attributed to a player, nor is it something like fall damage or vehicular damage.

I see, although we did appear to die simultaneously I guess possibly by msecs one did die before the other.

 

Thanks for the explanation 002
