    what was the coolest way you've died?

    I know I've mentioned this one before on another topic, but it's pretty fitting here too.

    Callsigns, Kills, and miscellaneous

    Let's see here... 1) Too many to count. WAY too many. 2) Subzero` (don't ask about the ` at the end, long story) or Decius 3) Quite a while back... though I never actually registered for the forums and such here until a couple days ago.
