[QUOTE="Emongnome, post: 420661, member: 7061"] Wow, that sounds a lot more like Paranoia (the RPG) than D&D. I won't go into the instance where the computer killed all my clones. Brings back some memories..... Anyway, I think my moment happened in the same module (1E I think, thought it was Queen of the Spiders series). We're moving around the first level with the hill giants. Every door we come to, we do what we called SDP (Standard Door Procedure). After seemingly minutes of dice-rolling and talking, we come to the conclusion to open the various doors and peek inside. So far, after a couple of hours of this, we've encountered nothing. Thinking to speed the game along, the next door we come to, I boldly announce "I'm opening the door right away". Unfortunately, I never gave the DM time to describe the rather large double doors in front of me and the ease at which we could've heard several hill giants sitting down to eat. I proceeded to close the doors and we ran for our lives. Thankfully, this comic mishap on my part put the DM into a better mood and let us off with a few encounters with less than a dozen of them. Diffcult, but he could've brought the whole of them to bear on us. Otherwise, instead of being playfully ribbed, I would've found a rather sharp knife in my back.:eek: [/QUOTE]
