It looks like you're just flooding all IP traffic, since you didn't limit it to ICMP--you need to set the "protocol" properly.  Also, if you really want to just block ping, you can do that by matching on the ICMP type and code.

I don't understand what you're trying to do, since it seems at odds with the flow that you appeared to be trying to push.
