Possible Dupe Method

I was in Norad and i was hoarded by zombies and died, and i got the "disconnected from server" message right as soon as the YOU ARE DEAD messages appeared. Nothing saved. I spawned in as I did before. I went to a different server however, so i never checked if my stuff if was on the ground. If anyone gets this working, you're welcome.

Do you know if you died first, or got disconnected first?

Happened to me lots of times, you spawn in and you die.
