Maybe you should use a script for that like

Oh, I dunno. On my regular server, most regulars use mics, and if a heavy notices a medic's hurtin' (and sometimes the medic will ask for the sandvich), he'll usually ask him to stand still and then toss it right at him.
Sandvich on ground = a non-medic often picks it up by accident.

The only times I have seem a Medic calm down to take a Sandvich or ask for a Sandvich are those who use voice commication wisely.
In fact, most Medics who use voice commication wisely pretty much wipe the team when they buddy up with a smart player.

A medic is like a deer on a freeway. We're so busy trying to heal people and dodge that we honestly don't see you toss a sandvich, and consider it suspect that someone threw something at us that isn't armed.

Picker of Nits
about 14 years ago
In defense of medics, we usually don't expect heavies to bother trying to heal us, no more than we would expect them even to notice if we were taking damage. We're too concerned with being on fire and trying to preserve our remaining 30 hitpoints, instead of waiting for a miracle.

@Picker of Nits: I think team fire was only in the sequels. In the original game only one player could be on fire at a time.
Dead Herald
about 14 years ago
@Denilson Sá: Yeah, if you made 3 buckets in a row with none for your opponent, you lit on fire and it improved your shot accuracy. It also prevented you from being called for goaltending.
Also NBA Jam had Charles Barkley. Barkley was the shit!
Picker of Nits
about 14 years ago
@Denilson Sá: I believe it was player. There was, however, something called "team fire" which affected your whole team and lasted like 20 seconds instead of lasting until the other team finally scored a shot. Don't remember how you could get team fire though.

Silly Mini-Medic, you must ALWAYS bring a portable friendly Pyro with you in case that happens!
For people who never played NBA Jam, if a player (or a team, I don't remember) scores several shots without other player (or team) scoring, the narrator says "He's on fire!", and also the ball becomes a fire ball (including putting fire at the basket). Oh, playing NBA Jam was a lot of fun!
