What's a deathmarch? Somehow the (cliché) image of lemmings storming towards the cliff's edge, comes into my mind's eye.

If you have to ask, perhaps you haven't been through one (yet). Death March does a pretty good job of describing the phenomena.

Essentially a death march is what happens when a team facing tight (and sadly usually artificial) deadlines attempts to solve the lack of calendar days by putting in more time per day. Things go downhill from there...
