I don't let them have a chance to say let start over. I have found that doing that often smooths things over and we get back into the game. As a player once this happened and I and one other person lived we could not rescue the bodies of our fallen companions. I wanted to continue so did the other person who lived. But the three who died threw a whiny fit over it. So we started a new game.There was a lot of resentment all around the players of the dead PCs were bitter over dying and myself and the other player were really put out over having to start a new game when we were still enjoying the other.Eventually we talked about it and the other three admitted that if they had it to do over again they would have rolled up new characters.  Which is why I don't like to make the decision right then and there when people are upset.</blockquote>
