Details:

When 2 players use the same nick, various levels of confusion can occur:
- one will have a hard time telling apart the 2, even if having different
colors
- when performing an admin command, the first one found will have the command
issue on him; if it happens that the game master is found first, he may kick
himself out...

I see 2 possible solutions:
- disallow identical nicks (it's for instance not possible to have 2 people
with the same nick over irc, so that make sense)
- do not perform a kick operation (at least) on oneself, when one is the game
master (this could happen out of fun for the game master, but there might be
some security issue anyway)
