Sir Merrick threatens with both reach (glaive) and close up (armor spikes) and has combat reflexes. Does he get attacks of opportunity when the guards stand up from their chairs?

Wow...that is a good question. I really don't know. Per the SRD, it lists it as "Stand up from prone" provoking an AoO. Nothing about chairs. Sounds like a post for the rules forum!!!

Appears that most people agree with me so far, that is DOES NOT provoke an AoO. After all, dismounting/mounting a horse does not provoke, and I think getting out of a chair is easier and would leave you less open than that.

As A fellow DM, I agree with Rhun
 

Next fighter trick.

Opening or closing a door is a move action that does not provoke an attack of opportunity. Would knocking the table out from under the guard who jumped up there be a similar action a disabled but heroic knight could still perform? :)

It's creative, I like it, I'll allow it!

Now I agree with Voadam, as long as he can lift the amount weight
 

Hey guys...just an FYI from the "official" Rules of the Game

"Getting to your feet when seated on the ground is just as difficult as getting up from a prone position and also requires a move action that provokes attacks of opportunity. If you're kneeling on the ground, getting up takes some time, but it doesn't make you vulnerable, so you use a move action that doesn't provoke attacks of opportunity. Getting up from a chair is a free action that doesn't provoke attacks of opportunity if the chair is fairly high; otherwise it's just like getting up from a prone position."
