That would be hilarious.

Then, you could couple that with a perma-ban on the player!

Nah, that's just silly.

Actually I find that quite amusing!

Of corse, he'd gain credit for one kill of everyone in the map, as well as exactly one suicide...

Could be the ultimate "I really need to win now move".

I think we're taking the concept of a superweapon too far. (and its all my fault)

They're supposed to kill players, not the game.

Oooh! That was inspired! What a great idea! Shadowstar, you're a genius.
Hows this for a superweapon? The LMS virus!

It takes the form of a PDA with a computer virus which mucks up the tournament's derez and respawn computer - anyone you hit with it (upload the virus to) wont be able to respawn for the rest of the map/defined time period, or lose an extra life when they die if LMS is already on...
You could even have a cool replacement derez shader that turned red or burst into flame or something...
The altfire would infwct all translocators in the vicinity, causing everyone nearby to teleport to a random pathnode, possibly without their weapons...
