I am not sure why, but there is some delay on a murder count report after you are murdered.
Often people will die and accidentally right click it (thus not reporting), which really sucks.
I really have no suggestion to fix it but perhaps someone else does. I believe the delay is on purpose, dont remember why it exists.

The delay is actually there to prevent you from r-clicking it right when it appears, because otherwise it would instantly appear the moment you hit 0hp, and if you were running in a direction with the cursor over where the menu appears, well, you are closing it out.

Ye that makes sense, but people still managed to right click it and very often.
How did it work at OSI?

I remember it popping up about the same time the screen finally faded from pitch black to black and white.

The delay is also because the death status changes clears all gimps. If it happened before the fade it would get canceled.
The delay is to ensure that the transition is complete before the menu pops up.
