Rogue's Roulette

Partner Taunt
I believe this taunt should be treated as a partner taunt (such as the High Five, RPS, Square Dance, etc.), where the spy will stand there, offering a game of Russian Roulette to those passing by.
If somebody decides to join in, the spy will take the first "shot" (either a missing round or the actual bullet). If the spy doesn't have the bullet, he will hand the revolver to the other player, who takes it and does the same. Once a player dies...
-If the spy (who offered the taunt) dies, it will just be a normal death.
-If the other player dies, the spy (who offered the taunt) will crouch down and pick up the revolver, which will drop near the dead player.
Then, whoever wins can walk away, while the dead player will either have normal respawn time or maybe have a modified, instant/shortened respawn time.

On another note, if this were to be incorperated into the game, they could add new voice clips for each character. For example, the spy (while idling) could say things such as, "A game of Roulette, anybody?" "Don't be a coward," "Who has a death wish?" and so on. Then the two players could take their turns, each making a relieved sound (e.g. a sigh of relief) if they weren't shot. If the spy (who offered the taunt) died, then the other player could walk away silently, maybe freak out, say something like "what a shame," etc. If the other player died...
-And was on the spy's team, the spy could mutter something while picking up the revolver such as, "Rest in peace, amico," "You were a brave man," "Farewell," etc.
-And was on the enemy team, the spy could mutter something such as, "See you in hell," "Good ridance," or maybe even his already existing line, "Well, the moment has passed. Back to work!"

So, everybody, feedback?

Maybe have a choice? I'd like to be able to pass time and just kill myself with this taunt a bit.

Spy on other's death: "Well...this was a dissapointment!"
Sniper on spy's death: "That's not something you see everyday..."

Sniper also should do the R.I.P taunt from the kukri if spy died.

Personally I think that's an even better idea. A little window could pop up when you pick the taunt, like the taunt select window that pops up when you press G, and it could have option 1, partner, or 2, solo.

I was actually playing around with voice clip possibilities in my head ever since I wrote this. Along with default voice clips, like you mentioned (maybe deaths could always have a chance of using a domination voice clip when performed with an enemy as well), I thought of a whole bunch of voice clips Valve could add to the game. Also, voice clips could be used when the taunt was initiated.
Some voice lines I thought of:
-Beginning of Taunt
--Scout: "Mom always said I shouldn't do dis, but what da hell."
--Demoman: "If I lose, bury me in Loch Ness with the other monsters."
--Heavy: "I am not afraid of little gun. Little gun is afraid of me!"
--Engineer: "1 in 6 ain't bad chances if you ask me."
--Medic: "Ugh... I hope somebody brought a body bag." "I suppose we won't need an autopsy after this, will we?"
--Other Spy: "May the best man win."

-Death of Spy (who offered the taunt)
--Scout: "WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA! (like from Meet the Spy)" "I- alright, 'kay, this never 'appened."
--Soldier: "I cannot die! The spirit of America is with me!" "This just goes to show you that AMERICA ALWAYS WINS!"
--Demoman: "Tha' wasn't supposed to happ'n! (already existing line)"
--Heavy: "You are dead. Not big surprise. (alreaxy exists)"
--Engineer: "1 in 6, and you got the 1. What a shame."
--Sniper: "Maybe next time, we'll try this with a rifle, instead. And with you on the other side."
