Most people I know play stock matches, TWRoO. We start with, oh, 10 lives or so, and then duke it out. Last man standing wins.
That way, in stock matches, the not-as-good players die sooner...and they don't come back...eventually bringing the 4 player free-for-all down to a 2 person duel, and it's great fun that way...people cheer on for whatever player didn't kill them, etc...

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
