This is a video game principle in which every time you get killed you
get rewarded with more fire power so that you can kill the mother
fuckers who killed you. So you would start out with one bullet per
second and you get killed, the only thing that would change is that
you would get 2 bullets
per second and continue from the same
place in the game. If you are doing really bad you get to kill
everybody. If you are good then you only get a few bullets and you
get to play a short elegant perfect game. If you are a loser you get
to kill everybody. It is like the best of a possible worlds.

This concept could make some games a lot more enjoyable
when two people of unequal ability play against each
other. The good players would of course still win based on
having been killed fewer times, but the game-play might be
better. |

The idea title could use some work. Most games already
work by giving rewards. Its just that they generally give
rewards to the players that ones explore more territory
before dying. Maybe Automatic Handicap Gaming. |

So, the winning player is the one with the lowest handicap?
Number of kills is not displayed because it becomes
irrelevant? ... some rare games have this baked-in.
Agar.io comes to mind. The more enemies you eat, the
slower and more clumsy you become. Still [+] for making
this game mechanic explicit. |

Dbag gamers would get killed a bunch on purpose so they could power up and then destroy everyone with their megaweapons and thousands of hours of gaming skills. |

The way to do this right is make it very occasional. Very occasionally some persistent pathetic loser will unexpectedly get godlike powerup and rain havoc / smacktalk on all the conventionally equipped gamers. Then it is back to pathetic loserdom for the endowed one. |
