So.... thoughts, ideas and suggestions?

Layer of Full Ammo Packs
When the point activates, make it spawn at the bottom, so everybody lands on it and dies, or has to fight.
What Else?

Replace the toolsblack with skybox and put the sky camera right in the centerof the tube for the truly infinite effect.

And fix the goddamn teleport. info_landmark is your friend.

as penguin said, use an info_landmark. Also, it would be best if it wasn't arena. It takes forever to kill people, because people travel too fast to reliably hit them with any weapon, and so someone dying can have to wait for a long, long time to respawn. Also, have some health kits and ammo packs. They would actually make the game go faster, because i found it was very easy to hit people directly above/below you, and people could maneuver themselves to be above people going for healthkits

Arena_drop2a is out! It features an ammo layer, the cap spawning at the bottom, and games are guaranteed to last no more than 90 seconds. ;)

I couldn't get the landmark thing to work, nor the skybox effect, or the change in orientation. Any help on that would be great.

After playtesting this, my biggest gripe is the autokill. The pace of the map makes auto-stalemating happen way too quickly. If there needs to be a limit, extend it.

Another idea is adding upwards pushing brushes throughout the entire map so that the maximum fall speed is reduced.
