The most common culprit disqualifying a WAD from this list is from lock-in traps that break the map. For example, if one or more players enter a trap room, trigger the lock-in trap, whether it be bars or a door closing and locking the players in, and then those players die while inside, leaving the rest of the team locked outside, unable to reenter the room to retrieve a key, or that critical section of the map is now blocked off preventing the remaining players from exiting the level. | The most common culprit disqualifying a WAD from this list is from lock-in traps that break the map.

Many other WADs not included on this list specifically state in their descriptions that they are single-player only and may only have one player start on each map, which would cause the players to telefrag each other on map start during a coop game. The WAD author has given no thought to cooperative-play and, more than likely, the whole WAD is full of lock-in traps. | Many other WADs not included on this list specifically state in their descriptions that they are single-player only and may only have one player start on each map, which would cause the players to telefrag each other on map start during a coop game.
