What is the dumbest thing you have ever done in game?

[Malifaxis]

While playing a Kuraci agent, I loaded up a bunch of folks and went to the deserted mul outpost to try to make an alliance with them.

When they asked what I had to offer them, my character ripped apart a bag, spilling spice all over the place.

After that, the muls were less keen on trading and more keen on murdering us all and taking the wagon as well as the spice.


I'll never forget Cowboy's golden line during that scene:  "mul on board"

I remember that mission.  I remember the feeling of my sack shrinking when the argosy started to rock back and forth.

this is when i had no idea what kryl were and had just come back from a break, before which kryl didn't exist, and i was under the impression that every mob within three rooms of tuluk was a pansy.

I think I might'a trusted someone once... Once upon a time.

> think (oocly) Journeyman hide is probably good enough for me to go take a leak real quick.

[Jeshin]

Is that my dryer? *goes to open and close the door*

Oh ARM went down again

Damnit >.>

I remember someone driving a Kuraci argosy off the shield wall.  I think its still down there somewhere.  I can't remember who did that, but it was basically the most awesome thing I've ever seen.

I have been in a Muarki wagon when it has fallen in a certain infamous hole. I got to help them evacuate it, break it down, fill it with explosive powder, and explode it. It was a good day.

While out on the grasslands, first few weeks of playing...

You drink water from a wooden barrel.

Some woman says, "You brought out a -barrel- of water?"

Me, "Yeah, want some?"

[Kankman]

I played a Borsail noble that got hooked on spice. I ordered my trusty Corporal to bring me to Luirs because I needed to get high. I went in disguise, which was really just taking off my ring and riding with my hood up. We crossed paths with two other travellers, who I think ended up travelling with us. I was terrified Mr. Borsail would get recognized. Made it to Luirs. Did a lot of spice. Overdosed.

Also, I stored Agameth.

[Taven]

Also, I stored Agameth.

I think that's a shame, because I'm pretty sure a lot of people were trying to kill him. Unrelated to people wanting him dead, I should really put up the logs involving him. There's at least one that I enjoyed a lot.

On topic: I have done stupid things, but am too embarrassed to admit to them.

[Feco]

Pausing to look at the friendly mul who rolled up on me in that alley.

i was in a room, had a feeling something interesting was three rooms in a certain direction despite the fact that the room said nothing, mosied on over.... mantis head.

I think that's a milestone any good Armer achieves eventually.

I don't get that... he was killed over a barrel of water?

[NOFUN]

I remember on my first PC when I got the "you sense a foreign presence contact your mind" message for the first time and then I started hearing the PC's voices in my head for the first time. I didn't actually read the getting started documentation or have any idea what the way was, so I instantly assumed my character was being mind-bended and I then told everyone so.

the dumb part is that he was carrying around a barrel of water instead of, you know... a waterskin.

*facepalm*

[Synthesis]

What's dumb about carrying a barrel of water around? (Assuming you have the strength to lift it.)

I almost always end up carrying 4-5 full waterskins, anyway, because 1 skin nowadays will last you like...30 RL minutes in the desert if you aren't a d-elf.

Hell, I had a half-giant who carried around a barrel -and- a cistern -and- a bag full of waterskins.

I hope all that water had electrolytes, dude.  That's what half-giants crave.

A while back I played a character named Vance.  I remember I started her early on the day of the HRPT finale, before all the chaos ensued. (which was awsome because nobody had any idea what was going on or when it was going to end)  She had a great start and lived through all that, and some other stuff, and some worse junk.  Then there was this one day when the bells wrang out over the city and I got all excited about some great arena event!  Only to find the worlds biggest baddest mekillot, clawing its way out of the arena, literaly throwing people from the stands with each wave of its massive claws.  This is where the dumbness kicks in right here...

All of a sudden I'm on the arena floor, in the same room with this monstrous mek and several other PC's.  (I blink a few times and re-read the room desc)  People are screaming and running and I keep typing "st" trying to stand up (apparently I'm already standing)  Some mul Gladiators run in (and I remember thinking, ooc THANK GOD WE'RE SAVED) and one smashes me horrendously in the Noodle and knocks me out cold.  (because I'm standing there UNARMED, with my studded anakore helmet IN MY HAND!!!)
As if maybe that wasn't THE ONLY TIME EVER! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE BALL!  


(sigh) great times
