[QUOTE="ChewManPhoo, post: 1071358, member: 13755"] Well, there are a few: "Boodley-boodley" (from a former player in a different group) - Denoting use of magic. "I'll use Hold Person if he attacks." "He's attacking." "Boodley-boodley." --------------- "Negative two!" (from the same player) - Shouted whenever a player with a good armor class is hit by an attack. Any attack. Even magic missile. Started by former player who had a -2 AC (2nd Ed), and would loudly inform the DM of her AC anytime an attack hit her. --------------- "Bears = bad" - In the first few years we played with our current DM, we lost more characters to bears than *any other monster type*. As such, we have taken to being *extremely* nervous in any encounter involving bears. --------------- "Like a snow elf in the desert" - Actually happened. First campaign with current DM we had about 10 players, and I don't think we had a single human in the group. One of the PCs was a snow elf. In the desert. That worked, well, about like you'd think that worked. --------------- "Mario blocks" - Same campaign. We were in a cave system, and our DM was trying to draw a side-view picture (in the days before battlemats) of the ledges in the cave. There was a crevasse in front of us. and a ledge sticking out a little way up. However, the way he drew it, it looked like a block floating in mid-air, a la Super Mario Brothers. We have since used this term to describe layouts we didn't think meshed well. carpedavid, let me know if you know of any more. [/QUOTE]
