[QUOTE="sniffles, post: 2728981, member: 30035"] I love this story, even though I wasn't present to witness it: Party falls through a hole and plunges into a subterranean lake about 30 feet below. Player wants to know if his character can tie a rope to his quarterstaff and fling it back up through the hole - 30 feet, remember? - while he's floating in the water. :confused: Story 2 (I missed this one also!!): Our party is pursuing a forest drake to rescue a woman it kidnapped. Woman came from a different party that just killed the drake's mate. Our party's cleric/sorcerer/marshal with lots of ranks in Diplomacy tries to persuade the drake to hand over the woman, but the player kept choosing to make reference to the drake's dead mate when he spoke, so the GM ruled that this didn't make the drake any friendlier toward the speaker and it attacked us. Then this same player had his PC - low HP, low AC, low BAB - run up and cast a touch spell on the drake. I actually witnessed this one! :D : In a Champions campaign, my PC had been knocked out and captured by thugs. One thug held a gun to my head and announced, "If anyone moves, I'll shoot".
