I thought I'd start a thread where people could post things they found amusing in the game... a funny conversation, a bit of code that came out funny, humorous typos, that sort of thing. I was inspired by this...
> sit at 1
>You sit down on several log benches.
...riiiight. And when I sit around the house, I sit around the house...
I don't remember the NPCs sdesc, but there's a "morbidly obese" human NPC in one of the taverns. One time for kicks I assessed him with my (petite) human PC, and got "He is about the same weight as you." :shock:
Well... There was this one time... Wait no... Ooh... But this one time at ... No that didn't happen either... Hmmm...
My favorite things are where other players have just screwed up... Or I screw up. Rather with mixing commands, ldesc screw ups... Doubling up comands with emote blah blah blah kick fatlardass;flee and it shows up that way or something. Hmm... Yeah... Never mind.
Creeper
My favorite amusing moments are emote direction screwups.
Trying to sniff the contents of a bottle and sniffing the contents of a character instead.. going to stick your hands in your cloak's pockets and sticking your hands in the figure in a hooded cloak instead.. :P
I remember one time I was out with a group and the leader emoting shifting in her saddle. At least that's what I think she meant, she left the "f" out of "shift". :twisted:
AC
Trying to emote circling a tembo your fighting and end up having it come out like this:
The crazy-eyed, fat-assed dwarf circles his tembo skull helmet attacking it.
Heh, something like that.
Oops, that was me. :oops:
It was the first time I saw someone 'wield' a baby item.
(So and so) brandishes a (something-eyed something) baby in both hands.
It was a hilarious moment... though all the OOC agreeance at its hilarity was a bit extreme. It was like OOC: ROFL, then another person OOC: that was funny, etc etc.
but yeah, it was fun :)
I recall a scenario that saw a character constantly attacking mine by mistake while a group of us were out hunting. The character and mine ended up running out of endurance in the same room just as she attacked me again by mistake.
However, nobody knew the two characters were both out of endurance, and neither of us knew it about the other, so everybody started yelling. Our leader started yelling at the both of us, my character started yelling at the other, and the other started yelling at mine. All the while, we were fighting with combat weapons and my character was slaughtering the other, both of us completely unable to stop or flee. Finally, I figured out the other character was out of endurance as well, and so did the leader, at which point he had to jump in for the other character just barely before it was killed, and then flee to put an end to the fighting.
That was one of the funnier moments. That, and whenever a large slug would come out of the cesspool in one of the Byn Latrines and almost kill somebody in there doing their business, not to mention scare the crap out of them, irony of ironies. Alfred Hitchcock once explained that he figured out how to kill anybody anywhere, except while on the toilet - it seems both Pulp Fiction, and Arm, have figured out what he could not.
QuoteFinally, I figured out the other character was out of endurance as well, and so did the leader, at which point he had to jump in for the other character just barely before it was killed, and then flee to put an end to the fighting.
Yes, that was very funny, but imagine being the leader who knew that the two fighting had some ic reason to be doing so then coming in and having both people ask him for help.
I really did think about seeing who was going to come out on top.
I saw someone emote "so-and-so sits at the bar idling". I know some people like emoting everything, but it was the first time I've seen someone emote idling :lol:
The poor woman begins to carefully work with the startled man.
The poor woman OOCs: oops!
The startled man OOCs: OOooo!
The poor woman OOCs: Thank god no one else saw that emote. Imagine the jokes.
The startled man OOCs: *snicker*
Yeah, someone else saw it!
*urhg*

Funniest thing?
The woman stops using the baby.
Now that was rather...odd.
Taken from the woman's point of view. I led the man into a dark room...
Letting out a melodramatic, girlish screech as she reaches the bottom of the stairs, you exclaim to the man, in sirihish:
"Spider!"
The man peers down at the floor.
One of the woman's hands flails toward a shadowy figure in the southeastern corner of the dark room.
The woman waits until the man is distracted and dips a hand to her pocket, secreting a small item to lob at his back.
You hold the spider.
You take aim at your target...
You throw a stone spider at the man.
The man leans into the dark room, lighting the area with his torch but jumps as his back is struck.
Squealing and hopping away from him to the corner of the room, you exclaim to the man, in sirihish:
"It's on you!"
The man leans forward, squinting at a stone spider and lowering his burning large wooden torch to illuminate it.
The man picks up a stone spider.
The man chuckles, grinning to you as he holds up his stone spider.
Hesitantly creeping forward and glancing from the figurine to him with innocence, you say to the man, in sirihish:
"Well, that doesn't look too terrifying..."
As he tosses his stone spider back towards you, the man says to you, in sirihish:
"Very clever."
The ability to throw non-weapon items is so underused.
Okay, I've posted this one before, but it's the best typo I've ever seen something do.
This guy was emoting that he was ducking out of the building. Now imagine the substitution of f for d....
Heh heh. I still laugh about it.
The asskicking half-giant strips the unconsious wretch of his clothing.
The naked, unconsious wretch lies there, doing not so much.
The angry, constipated templar has arrived from the north, frowning.
The angry, constipated templar snarls and says, in sirihish:
"What is going on here? And why is that man naked?"
You think to yourself: Holy shit....
Fidgeting, you bow to the templar and say, in sirihish:
"I caught him with his hand in my pants..."
The asskicking half-giant looks startled, shaking his head and edging back from the angry, constipated templar.
(Some things were changed to protect IC sensitive info, but that was pretty much how it went. *shiver*)

The human soldier subdues you, despite your attempts to struggle away.
The human soldier shouts, in sirihish:
"Militia! A criminal, here!"
The human soldier walks west, dragging you behind him.
It was far from amusing at the time, but afterwards it made a great memory. I sat in the jail for the alotted time, fearing for my character's life both ic and ooc.
Oh, did I forget to tell about the Templar? Good..that would be IC. ;)

So we were standing on some high place. There we were. Chatting away. And they were all following me. So, when I forgot we were standing on a high place, and walked off of it and fell, they all fell too. There were bodies everywhere. And I was laughing too hard to type.
I once spent few minutes trying to steal a tattoo off a man's head. He was knocked out, so I thought I'd help myself to what I thought was a fancy hat.
After trying all the keywords on what I thought was an object, I finally just looked at it and couldn't stop laughing at myself. Truely a classic moment I won't soon forget.

See, now that's just scary. I mean, what would you do next? Say "ooc Sorry, ignore that"?

If that happens (it hasn't yet to me) I plan on just RPing it out as if I accidently mumbled it. It happens IRL so if I accidently do it in the game so be it :wink:
So during a sparring match, someone who didn't speak sirihish very well ended up complaining about the "bomplicated language." I nearly fell over laughing IRL. It just struck me as hilarious, for no good reason, really.
All I can say is...
Bad things happen when you "talk" instead of "psi".

The figure in a dark, hooded cloak gets a sandy yellow, chitinous breastplate from a fine, leather-pouched belt.
Maybe it was 'doll' armor... riiiiiiiiight. :twisted:
C'mon people, stop trying to eat your children and stuff your breastplates and longbows into your belts!
Well...one thing that happened to me recently. I sucessfully shadowed someone around, was kindof curious where they were going. The charcter I followed wasn't some prominent noble with guards or even a merchant.
But one thing that happened, I got slightly bored of this, and instead of leaving decided to throw out a couple emotes. I had a whistle echo off the walls...then the character moved...moved....fled. I felt it was semi bad rp, since oocly you know 'someone' is hidden, ye icly, someone is a single person in a huge room of vnpcs. Although I didn't care because I was actually laughing kinda hard.
ummm....damnit. First time I post as a guest and now I can't delete this......heh....could someone delete that above post? Though I was in...a different thread. *sigh* Although...in a way I guess it was an amusing moment...hmmm....I'll just double post for now then.
Heh the most amusing moment was I was sitting in the gaj when in walks The giant, walking penis. Not sure how he got accepted but he managed to walk around and talk to people for alittle before a templar walked in and slayed him which was funny to see The half-gaint soldier chops The huge, walking penis on the head doing frightening damage followed by the corpse of the the huge, walking penis.

I remember hearing of someone having an Adolf Hitler wanna-be character, he had a Panzer Kank... the name Kinkaid comes to mind...
I remember Hitler. It took all of one wish and a couple of seconds for an imm to put Hitler back into the grave.
Hitler? I'd like to hear some detail on that, if it wasn't too IC... Was there a german-accented dwarf walking around with a fake mustache named 'Adolf'? Whats the story behind that? How did -that- character idea ever get accepted?
Well, I think he just went around acting like hitler and stuff... before an imm zapped him. Im sure someone else who knows the details can say something about it... more disturbing than amusing, but whatever.

Haven't been around long enough to see anything funny, but i would think an hitler PC in armageddon would fit very very well, of course if it was changed to mold into the world. Why was that one killed? Just curious, hope its not too IC.
He didn't mold at all. His -Panzer Kank-? Saluting the air while saying Seige Hail and stuff alot like that.
Two things:
Such and such a guy pulls the head of such and such a victim from his backpack.
Such and such a guy says "I eat them"
Such and such a guy bites off the severed head's ear.
Mansa probably remembers that one a bit better than I do.
Then there's "the buldging-crotched elf". I needn't really say more, other than that. Cheers to the imm that approved that one, I'm glad he had his streak of glory. Kudos as well as the guy who thought it up and acted totally casual as a Templar pointed with rage. To this day I wonder if the Templar's player realized that it looked like his character was jealous by the size of the elf's crotch.

Someone OOCs: Hold on one sex
Okay
The funniest thing EVER just happened.
But I can't tell you about it.
I'm pretty sure I'd get nuked if I did.
It happened 20 mins ago, and I STILL can not stop laughing.
Someone says, out of character:
"SHIT"
That's all I'm sayin.
Oh man, who had the quote of they guy in his sig saying "OOC: Hey, I gotta go, the cops are here and they don't look too happy."?
Some guy cows his head deeply to some templar.
Not twenty minutes ago.
I pierce some guys nose.
The newly-pierced person says, in sirihish:
"that's all? bah..."
The newly-pierced person staggers and passes out.
This just happened.
The <man> shits slightly in his barstool.
This one is from an old thread, and is not mine. However, it made me laugh very hard, and deserves a repeat...
<Me> pushes open his robe to show <another mercenary> <the obsidian-haired girl> he keeps beneath.
*Snicker* Now how do you explain -that-? 'She comes with the robe?'
Hmm...well, I haven't played for a long while (curse this strange thing we call real life!), but I vaguely recall something that made me laugh. I'll try to paraphrase as best I can remember it:
============
The thin, vaguely-recalled woman smiles at you and sways slightly.
You ask the thin, vaguely-recalled woman, "Have you been drinking?"
The thin, vaguely-recalled woman says, "Ongy a lihhle..."
Frowning slowly, you ask the thin, vaguely-recalled woman, "How much is a little?"
The thin, vaguely-recalled woman drops a shot-glass.

The thin, vaguely-recalled woman says, "Thst mudh."
The thin, vaguely-recalled woman stands up, wobbling.
The thin, vaguely-recalled woman trips and falls flat on her face.
You sigh.
============
Made me laugh for a while. And now here I sit, waiting for my first new character application in about a year to be (hopefully) approved. This Crackageddon is remarkably long-lived... ;)
While talking to an Imm-inhabited templar, and trying to hand them something..
The <sdesc deleted> templar, being a mount, does not accept your offer. Try the pack command.
:shock:
I was so tempted to type
>mount templar
(Sorry, Immortal-who-will-remain-nameless, but I just HAD to post it. ;p)
Quote>mount templar
I would have. I would have shouted, "YEE HAW! THIS'S ONE FIESTY BRONCO!" as I rode him into the Gaj.
You can always make a new character, but jumping on a templar's back and riding him around is a once in a lifetime kind of thing.
My character was hiding, shadowing this templar along with a noble on one of the most interesting and important conversations I've ever heard. When I tried to hit the letter 't' on my keyboard in order to think, instead I hit the 'y' and yawn :shock: -- So there I am, standing with the templar and the noble in the locked estate, yawning. They thought I was SO bored :D *beep* Welcome to Armageddon :-)
It happend to me SO many times, that at the end I had to alias the letters 'y', and 'r' on my keyboard to the think command.
This was the funniest thing I've ever seen.
The <blanky blank blank> says in sirihish:
"Your strength is good, your agility is above average, your wisdom is very good, and your endurance is exceptional."
The <blanky blank blank> says OOC:
"Damnit! Pasted the wrong thing!"
After seeing the Russel Crowe episode of South Park, I want to make a character just like him that goes around yelling in an accent and picking fights.
"OI! DON'T YE INTERUPT ME YE VOIGINA!"
I'd also join the Byn and work my way up to sergeant, just so I could lead trips up to Tuluk and back while singing, "Makin' movies, makin' songs and foightin' round the woild!"
And whenever someone would try to pick a fight, I'd explain, "WHY DON'T YE CHOKE ON SOME KANK VOMIT, YE SOD!" and start swinging.
I'd probably get banned within five minutes, but it'd be worth it. :twisted:
Me: A burly fighter type, well seasoned.
The other guy: A wimpy merchant type over his head.
I arrive on the scene to see him engaged in combat against the very wimpiest of beasts.
The other guy screams, "Help!"
I review the situation, noting that the other guy is exhausted and beaten up a little. Meanwhile he's screaming like a schoolgirl.
I know I can pound the beast down in short order but I am so amused I just sit and watch for a while, him screaming and pleading with me. Eventually I jump in and put the beast down. The other guy looks at me and says, "so, how do you want to split this up (referring to the hide of the beast)?" Imagine the nerve.
The <blank characacter> says, OOC:
"Hey, sorry about that folks. I had a major ranch dressing emergency."
the funniest thing that has ever happened to me has happened twice in two days..

Yeah, good thing greaves cover your ass, otherwise you'd really be in trouble.
A few months back I was talking to a character when the player had to go AFK for a while. When he came back he explained:
OOC: A member of my family called for help. A skunk had blocked the entrance to the garage.
I hope you don't mind me telling this, it was one memorable moment.
A long, long time ago before the karma system(of course) I was playing a half-giant. :-D
Feeling immortal with my all powerful half-giant strength I strode mightily along the north road, bashing scrab into oblivion until, quite rudely, a gith came in and started beating me up. Not a tough gith, mind you, just a fast one. I proceeded to scream like a small girl and run westwards, along the shield wall, while the gith proceeded to follow me silently, much like Jason in a scary movie. Nearing the end of my endurance I was blessed with a magnificent idea, so I turned around, subdued the gith despite his worthless attempts to get away and lept off the shield wall. One of us lived. Ok, it wasn't me, I was already half dead from fighting, but I bet that stinkin' gith remembered the half-giant that (sort of) got away for a long time.
I'm poisoned, no idea where to get a tablet.

The burly- Imma-feck-you-up-if-you-do-that-again- fecker dwarf tells you Alright! follow me! How feckin' hard is it to stay on the feckin' roof?
I can't remember how the story went or I'd write it here, but basically my PC is drunk, along with her fellow Byn runner and superior, and she tells this story about beating a man over the head with his fake leg. It was the first time I'd ever heard (read lol) this particular superior laugh. :D
I was walking around and randomly my stun went from 42 to 0 and I fainted. Guess it was -REALLY- hot? That was funny for me,

Ahem. Guess what I was trying to do. :twisted:
Well. This isn't so much funny really...well I dunno, I'll let everyone else be the judge of it. Regarding a particular battle thing.
Hopefully this is not too IC--it happened last week and I think the whole of 'nak saw the actual event occur. But for the sake of amusement, I'll post this.

That one made me laugh out loud.
The half-giant tells you in Sirihish, chuckling:
"You don't know to make babies? I can teach you to make babies."

Ah, playing h-giants would be much more fun, if life wasn't too easy with them.

With weather like that I'd expect umbrella's to be more common... :oops:
When Nessalin cursed at and insulted me in response to a polite e-mail as he lectured me on 'respect'.
I just remembered a little amusing event from eons and eons ago that happened to me.
I made a dwarf (and I never make dwarves, as a general rule) whose focus, if you care to know, was to acquire a continual supply of sleeping pills, since he was an addict (you know, those secret ones I won't mention in detail that knock you out if you eat? Yeah, those.) And he was a vagabond, a drifter without a home. So outside the Trader's in Meleth's Circle one day, I changed my longdesc to indicate that he was taking a dump. Something like...
The midnight-hued dwarven child squats here, defecating over a pile of kank dung.
Anyway, the funny part is I lost link. The MUD was still up but my server just crashed for whatever reason. Hours and hours went by where I was totally unable to reconnect, so I gave up and decided to relog the next day. The game had been crashing a lot lately and I was pretty sure my dwarf would be booted out and thus done having his little poop session sooner or later. Well, lo and behold the next day the game is still up, I reconnect with the same ldesc going.
I can only imagine how funny that was for people who kept passing by my character, who was still at it days after the fact!
Well I had a funny time once.
Well it was funny to me.
On my second character, while I was still a noobire (my first one laster 1/2 an hour)
I was a human assasin of sorts, the noob assasin man.
and there was this kind lady from such and such a house
1.kind lady shows noob assasin man around town, esp. to weapon and armour shop. (and where to buy instruments)
2.kind lady takes noob assasin man to tavern
3. noob assasin man doesn't know what Shadow is on his skill list.
4. noob assasin man begins to shadow nice lady
5. Nice lady's coworker for such and such a house comes in, he is big bad officer guy
6. Nice lady is told by big bad officer guy to follow him back to barracks
7. Noob assasin man is still shadowing, and can't figure how to stop
8. Noob assasin man succesfully shadows nice lady and big bad officer guy right into the barracks of such and such a house
9. Big Bad officer suddenly notices noob assasin man, and draws his bastard sword
10.noob assasin man doesn't know what he is doing, and pulls out a mandolin, saying that nobody would hurt a little bard
11.Big Bad Officer man tries to kill little noob assasin man
12. Big Bad Officer ends up running after the noob assasin man, chasing him around the building, cause noob assasin man doesn't know how to get out.
13. Big Bad officer man finnally puts down noob assasin man.
was really frightening being my second character, but pretty funny to. I heard later that the big bad officer man was arrested for killing me by NPC soldiers. that just made it that much funnier.
Leo is cool, er not

A similar situation happoned to me.
I was a templar and had cornered this guy and was tryen to RP it out when he suddenly jumps onto a wall, runs part of the way up it, and flips over mine and my soldiers heads, slapping them as he goes, and runs away.
I remember another time when everybody was transfered to the west gate of Allanak, that was amusing. I remember at least one wanted person (who was prolly long gone prior to this) being killed.
Oh! And yet another...I played a certain mercenary mul and I was out in the sands with a unit. We wanted to climb something to scout ahead or see what was up there so I started throwing people 'up'. Funny shit =P

Hey! That was my old whiran/acrobat dwarf!
. . .
Ok. I'm lying.
Once, a long while ago, my friends and I were playing during one of those major RPTs. By major I mean I've never seen as many people on before or since. The events that transpired on that day left a mark on the timeline if you look at the history page.
This is not a story about those events. They just happened to occur while important things were happening. Elsewhere.
So my friends and I had just made 4 elves, and had decided to only play together. Our own little desert tribe. We were real pleased with ourselves. With all of our funds, we had a tent right off. All of us together, we felt we could take anything. But we'd only played maybe 5 hours.
So we're out in the desert, hunting. Other hunters left us alone. I wouldn't mess with 4 tall figures in sandcloth cloaks. Not without knowing more about them. We hunt some scrab. We get attacked by gith. We do pretty well for ourselves. We move along, exploring the desert.
So we get tired, and camp. Everyone else goes to sleep, and I stay awake just in case. Everythings going great.
All of a sudden, the tent collapses. A pair of braxat are ripping into my companions. They are all asleep and prone, so one or two hits is all it takes. I'm awake, so I manage to stand, get pummeled, and flee like a madman accross the dunes. I run until I can't anymore. Then I stop and rest, and try to figure out where I am.
I made it, they hadn't followed me. Whether they were too busy mauling my friends or what, I don't know. I figure, wow, that was close. But I can make it back to town from here. Look, there's the north road.
So after I finish resting, I start heading down the road. Guess what? I run into a carru. It mauls me. Hard. I manage to run past, but I'm at less than 10 health, and bleeding. I run past a pair of elves, and a few rooms later, I'm at the gates to the outpost. I think, yeah, I'm safe.
The gates are closed. I collapse into unconciousness.
A few minutes pass. I watch my hit points fall down into the negative. I watch them crawl back up to positive. I watch them climb to about half life. I still can't wake up. Then, I see my hit points drop. Just a little. They go back up. They drop a little. They drop a little more. I finally wake up, and these two elves are there. They're just lazily kicking me. In no hurry to finish me off, they hadn't even drawn weapons.
I jump up, and run. I still don't have a lot of stamina, so I make it only as far as the other gate. Still closed. I try to hide. I wait. Elf strolls up, and finally draws a dagger, and sticks it in me. I die.
I want to say it was the most humorous death I've ever had. To survive through all that, to be kicked to death right in front of the gates.
I've got a better one. To go through a 8v8 PC bloodbath involving magick and weird stuff with a 2day warrior, racking up 3 kills and only losing 2 hp, to running around the center of the city, fighting off guards to finally work off the crimtimer, to get killed in a bar in an NPC instakill.
These aren't as good as some of those...
This one's from the logs, a PC I played loooong ago:
> :glances to his left, picking up ~red before returning his attention back to ~kroz.
The hunch-backed, bald man glances to his left, picking up the dark-red tanned, robust
man before returning his attention back to the rangy, ashen-skinned man.
> :blinks, then releases his grasp on ~red.
The hunch-backed, bald man blinks, then releases his grasp on the dark-red tanned, robust man.

I took the typos, they made it better. Also, he didn't even take off his pants!

This one is second-hand from an ex-immortal, but my same PC was involved in the events afterward:
Everyone was gearing up for a small skirmish near Tuluk, when...
Imm-controlled NPC tries to remove his pants, but his inventory is full.
Imm-controlled NPC says, in sirihish "I can't take off my pants! Abort mission!"
I bugged an NPC that wasn't wearing pants and I got a send from someone:
"Adios Pantalones!"

I had bought an erdlu in one city to ride out for fear of my safety. I bought it from the templar and was forced to hop on it, as always happens. From there I galloped north until the erdlu got pooped. I hopped off and let it rest for a bit. Imagine my surprise when it said I was too heavy for the erdlu when I tried to hop on again. I wished up about it, hoping for at least a temporary boost in carrying weight for the erdlu and then I would sort it out when I arrived at my destination.
Imagine my surprise when:
An erdlu gets up and rises to its feet.
An erdlu looks at you.
An erdlu says to you, in sirhish:
"This would be a lot easier if you weren't so fat."

The knobby, grey-tufted man says, in sirihish:
"It requires 82 coins to fill that up, which you do not have. You are too poor to drink. Go away."

At your table, you say in sirihish, shaking her head:
"Nope.. guards got her down and knocked her out.. the dude gave her a good hit to the head, she was done for.."
