Do we have a page on "delayed instadeath" i.e. things like food poisoning or strangulation that take time but will kill you unless you do something about it? [[User:Ekaterin|Ekaterin]] 15:51, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Instadeath doesn't reduce hit points to zero. It just kills you. If you look in the high scores list, a character who suffers an instadeath is still listed in the scores list as having whatever number of hit points they had before they died. They're not listed as having 0 hit points. I think the sentences referring to hit points being reduced to zero should be removed. [[User:Djao|Djao]] 19:51, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
