Of course, the Poll assumes that the game is based on 'Timelimit'
Sudden Death = Next Kill wins.

Again, if you have other Ideas, please post.

sudden death is the best way..

sudden death is stupid

consider this, the score is 5-6, then say i have the score of 5, and in the last few seconds before the time runs out i get a kill, my opponent now respawns without any weapons or armor, i then have a great upper hand, i can just devote myself to chasing him down and kill him, its especially bad if they spawn close to me

in this situation i was on the VERGE of losing, but all because of timing i won

Actually, I think this turns out to be something of a false dilemma. You could as easily say you were on the VERGE of winning, but the time ran out [i.e. match went into sudden death] when you had just become tied; just before you were about to pull ahead.

It would be bad.

Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light.

Total protonic reversal!

(P.S. I don't have a problem with 5 minutes overtime... although I feel sudden death is kind of exciting)

well if you're winning 6-5 in the final seconds, don't die..

add 2 min, as someone said, the respawn location is an issue with Sudden Death.

Peace

Well if extra time and/or sudden death is a problem, make it like tennis/pingpong/diggerynuts and play to 10, after that win by 2. I guess there's no mod for that though ... nevermind.

Poll Closed.

Games ending in a tie will go into Sudden Death Overtime.

Poll

In case of a tie, what type of Overtime do you want?
