Heh.
It's actually quite easy in the DLL to add customized "death" messages.
For example, when I started I was falling in the lava so often I changed the message to read
"DingBat decides to take a hot bath."
At one time I considered adding customized death messages for all regulars.
Yours could be: "Guruman trips on his clown shoes while taking a smoke break with a monkey on his back." :^}
