I really dislike kill happy games like that and the thought of a DM becoming kill happy really turns me off of ever playing with them, dood. I get that it's supposed to be hardcore gaem, but it just seems like it'd really stifle people's creativity after a while. Why even bother coming up with a cool backstory for this guy if the DM can just arbitrarily decide a rock falls on my head, I happen to roll a 1, and get killed before I can even do anything cool? If I do come up with a cool character and he gets killed by some random **** , there's no real acceptable way to do anything with him without just reusing the same guy over and over and that'd be lame, dood.
I usually don't do that kind of thing. Besides, it's just a joke. It's actually really hard to kill a whole party at once unless you be a huge dick about it, besides.
So many DMs see themselves as the player behind the enemies rather than the teller of the story. Better to find a DM that is interested in telling a great story.
