afaik i posted this idea somewhere else but anyway: what i'm thinking of is to make all players "immortal" for 30 or 15 seconds after spawning (spawning at random locations one minute after death) this way the game could go on and on forever or at least people wouldn't have to wait too long until they could play again :D

Haha, just prolonging their inevitable deaths? You're too cruel, n54.

Yeah being crazy helps too, ppl always call me crazy on the grid. I just find it so much fun going into a box that the person in the box finds it hard or impossible to get out of, kill him/her in there and then go out again (often by a hole they have blow in the wall) :evil:

Thats soooo much fun, i recommend it to anyone - well not everyone ;)
