 When you change colour change your name too. Then you can give them false 
      info like saying that an engineer is a spy while you are a demoman. Cause 
      most peopple will just look at the colour on the scores list and not notice 
      that it say red next to the blue colour. Submitted 
      by Iax.  If you are getting chased in a place where deep shadows are accessible 
      (the roof on 2fort4 for example), run for the dark like a cockroach. As 
      soon as you get in the shadows, hit the dirt. A lot of the time the enemy 
      will be so intent on chasing you they wont see you feigning in the dark 
      and will run right past. Also, feigning in the dark around sniper nests 
      can give you a spot to hide without having to run all around and risk being 
      caught (try right against the slit in the wall in 2fort4 or well6.. if you 
      lie parallel to the wall, you're pretty much undetectable).  If you're feigning and some damn camper is standing right on you, id him 
      and say something like "hey Bob da Man, go to the respawn room". Usually 
      the un-perceptive person will just stumble happily into whatever wild goose 
      chase you give him to see what is there, never even considering the possibility 
      that he was standing on you.  Make sure no-one BLURTS OUT YOUR PROFESSION while you are disguised.I had 
      this happen to me once.Ruined my luck.  Yell that someone else is a spy and lob a regular grenade at them. Every 
      one expects you to lob a gas grenade. Confuses the hell out of em. he he. 
      "Wait, no, no, I'm on your team." "Ya right"   The best use I have seen of the feign is two or more spies meeting up 
      right outside the flag room, feigning until the time is right, and then 
      springing into action. Very effective and usually unexpected.  Everyone knows that hallucinogen cloud is not a fatal thing, (everyone 
      can run thru it), thats why you might have to "boost" your cloud with 1-3 
      hallucinogen grenades, and give 'em a fatal surprise.   You're running to the upper supply from the elevator and see a demo laying 
      a det in your ramp room. Take out your tranq gun, and start shooting tranq 
      darts at him. If you get 3 or more hit before he lays the det, you get to 
      see something funny! Those tranqs will slow him down like hell, and odds 
      are he's just laid a 5 second det. He tries to run, but he's moving like 
      a turtle and can't escape the blast of the det in time! 
       There is a soldier or sniper floating in the water wreacking havoc on your 
      snipers. Disguise then jump in with him, take out your tranq dart and shoot 
      at least 5 tranq darts in him (if you can) Then start nailing him. He'll 
      proably swim down to avoid the nails, but is swimming extremely slow! so 
      take down his health a fair bit and watch him drown. 
       The first thing a see a newbie spy doing is running around disquised with 
      thier knife out. Its a dead give away unless you are a medic or engineer. 
      Put that knife away till your ready to use it!  What would you do if you heard a nailgun near you? Probably go find out 
      what enemy was shooting, right? Take care of this problem by knifing whenever 
      possible. It saves ammo for you inside their base and is much quieter. All 
      you hear is a scream and no nailgun or shotgun noise. This could mean that 
      the guy died from disease, suicide, or gas... wait a minute... DOH!. Submitted 
      by =SD= Taniwha When you are in the enemy base, disguised, of course, you may want to change 
      your skin. I find that the easiest way to do this is to feign death. Then 
      change your skin. That way people see less of your skin changing, and more 
      of a dead person. Of course, don't feign in the "middle of the road" Submitted 
      by Casebier[ST] Whenever possible, gain up yer armor and grenade jump into the enemy sniper 
      nest, kill all enemy snipers, then run into thier upper respawn and feign, 
      change skin, and then wait for an enemy to respawn. Find out an enemy's 
      class by looking at enemy corpses, then change skin to that. This is the 
      way not to get caught. The key to the spy is changing skins, but you probably 
      already knew that...:)   |
