it is not a bad idea at all i must say :}

usually, i find someone in particular and give them pus, but the majority of the time, i just find a group of a few or an area and toss them out, spread so people can see which are which. this way, shy peoples who don't want to speak out have a chance to grab things for which they may otherwise not get the opportunity

agreed, very good idea, not only will it help on new maps, but it will also keep noobs from running between you and stealing them as you toss to someone who needs them. Also, on the same subject, I had an idea bout the power-ups when they drop. When you shoot a monster, instead of the pu's dropping on the ground, could they just appear in your inventory? This also would help keep ppl from stealing pu's, and give you the ones from a monster you killed too far away to get to in time. Or, and I know a lot of others have had this happen to them too, you kill a monster, and the pu falls onto the side of a wall. So in the middle of hell's fury going on around you, you have to pull out your translocator and try to tele up the wall to get the pu without gettin shot and losing your wep. Just an idea.

Theres still involvement, except you don't have to go the mile run to a place most of the time you cant find. It's still giving the PU and the person gets a message telling you what powerup has been given and by whom.

No way, this would be gay. It would take away some of the challenge and strategy.
