Here is a topic to give Darwin Awards to PuGs, friends, loved ones, or even yourself for managing to die in a spectacularly stupid or ridiculous manner. Don't be shy, give us a description or even a story! Cheers!

Too many to list,but the last had to do with a half dozen possessed a-boms and my missile launcher.That sounds all fine I know,but I was less than a meter from them all,as were teammates.

This doesnt have to do with MEMP. But ya know how they say never go grocery shopping on an empty stomach? Well not only did I not have anything to eat but I also smoked some stuff. I spent over $150 on food.
What were we talking about?

Whats a Darwin Award??? (Sorry if im being stupid) Darwin awards were awarded to people that they deemed to be too stupid to live. They used to make up stories. Like one Indian guy who left the front seat of his rented van as it was speeding down the highway because somebody told him that the cruise controls drives for you. It never actually happened.

I started a 2nd account way before it was fashionable on PC to try Gold as a new player (seeing as I played Bronze for months before moving up except for some of the early weekend challenges) I had One revive and and one OPS pack and.........

Every Geth game I should get a Darwin award multiple times. I know that Leeroying a couple of Pyro's, a Hunter, a Prime, 2 Rocket Troopers and a Bomber will result in spectacular staggerfest and death, but I do it anyway.

Too many to name. So many wave one deaths.
I did drop off the platform on Condor (holy shitballs!! it took me about 30 secs to remember the name of the firebase) during a hack, only to get battered to death by 3 cannibals.

Oh god, so many...
I think my absolutely worst one was accidentally choosing the wrong Vorcha (chose Engineer, was supposed to choose Sentinel) for a gold run - I had completely wrong and useless gear because I hadn't played the VE at all before (except some general try-out runs on bronze/silver where I realised that class was just not for me).
I was so bad and generally useless that I quit to MP menu immediately after the game finished to facepalm and think about my life and my choices.

Taking out rockets instead of using an Ops Pack and sticking to cover when I just want to run away both caused me more deaths than anything else.

Whats a Darwin Award??? (Sorry if im being stupid) It was a joke circulating Usenet (and later Internet) decades ago. Supposedly these "Darwin Awards" were granted to people who improved the human gene pool by removing themselves from it through their own stupidity (or sometimes just making themselves incapable of reproduction). Of course there was no actual award or organization granting them, but users shared these lists of cases (mostly urban legends) where people got themselves killed in creative ways.

Just last week I played with a pug. He was playing as the hammer-time-krogan. His failed attempts to kill Praetorians and Scions with his hammer everytime he saw them were some serious darwin-award-material.

I'll award one to myself for a piece of derpery yesterday while playing Slayer to complete Earth Mastery. Under pressure from a Banshee and in need of shields, I got it into my head to Biotic Charge the Cannibal that was standing right next to her. The outcome was embarrassingly predictable

The outcome was embarrassingly predictable I did something quite similar once: Biotic Charged a Centurion to Falcon-Punch his face and ended up on the sword of a Phantom standing right next to that guy. The human gene pool really did improve that day, as the mission failed with that action I do get Darwin Awards literally all the time, often being too reckless or too slow in reacting...

I'd like to nominate myself for the ultimate darwin award as I have just managed to pull out the missile launcher instead of using an ops pack for seven times in a row during one game ... needless to say, it resulted in multiple deaths
