I'd say that mine was when I was playing CTF in blood gultch and had just been in a fire fight with a red (I was on Blue), so this Red had just gone and got the Flag and ran out the base from the rear entrance, seen me jump from off the base down to him just as my teammate came flying round the corner, Red threw a plasma right on my after I somehow failed to hit him, I ran towards him as he ran away from the guy in the 'Hog, and just as I blew up The guy in the hog got right behind me, the explosion killed me and the Red, and the guy in the hog lost his sheild.
Newho, here comes the funny part. I've respawned ontop the the base (Instant respawn) and the guy in the hog hopped back in after getting out to return the flag, I turned round picked up the Pistol and spotted my teammate as he climbed back in. I don't know if any of you do this, but if ever I see a hog with a empty gunner seat that I want in, I let out a short bust with the AR to get the drivers attention. So I jumped down and shot at the hog so the guy would wait for me, but I had the pistol out and got a head shot. I was just standing there looking at his body like "Woah... that wasn't supposed to happen.". Then I got killed by some guy with a big long Clan name for TKin' it was pretty funny now that I think of it.

Anyway. The point of my post was so you people could post about your most unfortunate accidents, I enjoy reading these tales so make them nice and long for me.

bah

I was shelling blue base from afar with rockets, and one of my teammates happened to decide going up there was a good idea.

Need I say more?

Setting:3 player oddball on Rat Race

I had the odd ball and was close to victory, but was being chased by my roommate with an assault rifle. I went through a teleporter, only to run into my other roommate on the other side. I figured I'd better temporarily toss the ball aside and fight, so I dropped the odd ball and opened fire on the roommate who I had just run into. My first roommate then followed me through the teleporter, grabed the oddball, and ran back through the teleporter. So while roommate number 2 and I mutually annihilated each other, roommate number 1 got to the 2 minute mark first and stole the sweet taste of victory from me.

While on BG, my army of 2 was attacking B base. After blowing away the defenders w/ a shotgun, I ran in, got the flag, and was out. As soon as I stepped out of the base, my partner rammed me with our escape hog. By the time my partner grabed the flag, he was facing a rain of plasma and lead. This may not seem to bad, but in any multi battle, I want to at least show the opponets a fight, and with minor mistakes like this, your team starts to look kinda sad.

The Time: 4:30a.m. We had ben playing 4 on 4 Spawn Growth CTF. I was a Noob at this point and was bound and determinde to make a score afore the night was over. But my strategy needed a little work. It was simply this. Run in and shoot like heck. I didn't know the map very well (BG) and so i decided to try and learn it and get a sneek attack by going through the mountain. I went in and had a fight with a guy inside totally screwed up my sense of direction and went back towards my base thinking i was on the attack still. We had recently switched colors for some unapperent reason and so I still thought i was red and the enemies blue. I whipped out my rocket and ran to the base. Straight inside to where my two other friends, also Noobs, were sitting and waiting for someone, like myself to come in. I shot them both at the same time suicided and my other teammate died at the real other base. A hefty spawn growth was put on our shoulders and the team scored twice in the time it took to respawn. Ahh the good old days.
