with a large deck that's about 10 meters off the ground.
10 metres? 10 feet maybe. 10 metres is almost 4 stories up.

Ummm I'm Canadian, I don't use the Imperial measurement system. I'm probably exaggerating........a bit........ok lets just say the deck is high enough to put a little kid swing under it

so yeah, about 10 feet, or 3 1/2 metres.
btw, I'm canadian as well.

EDIT: 3 1/2 metres is 1, maybe 1 1/2 stories up. (1 story is usually 2-3 metres)

10 meters would be possible if it was a porch perched on a very steep hill, and suported by pillings.

10 meters is taller than my house in most places (it's a 1-story). and there's 2-stories around here too, they're probably *barely* 10 meters. so unless you live in a 3-story house (that would be cool)....

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.

10 feet is very roughly 30 feet. That means against the forces of gravity, your soaker probably wouldn't be able to shoot 10 meters straight up. I don't think that most 2 storie housed are 1- meters. Some definately could be though.
