[QUOTE="Rev. Jesse, post: 2759263, member: 27673"] Very, very amusing. I sat enthralled and giggle for at least five mintues rereading it. The fact that potatoes are mentioned makes it even funnier, though I have no idea why. Who would think "Potatoes" = "Assassination?" Nothing I have seen really comes close to that, but there were a few stupid PC moves in my gaming experience. One ranger started to accidently hit the dwarf fighter when shooting arrows in close combat. An honest mistake, you might think, but it roiled the fighter so much that it continued. Towards the end of the campaign, the ranger was actually adjusting his stance so that he would have to shoot through the fighter on purpose. We now have a 'myth' in the group that damaging PCs gets you XP. The single worst act of player stupidity I saw isn't very funny, but I will share it anyway: We were playing a Vampire game, and our party of vampires were assigned to transport, via van, a pack of werewolf cubs. While enroute, a motorcyclist tried to flag us down. He flashed us a vampire gang sign and as we drove along side him, he was described as wearing the colors of another vampire group that was said to be recently destroyed and was listening to 'Steppenwolf' on the radio. He was described as having long hair and a stubble beard (which is not very common for a vampire). Once we pulled off the road he asked us to follow us into the woods, at which point the GM asks 'Does anyone have the Merit Common Sense?" (this knack would allow the GM to give a little hint to a PC who can't see something in front of his eyes) Of course, we were all mature, seasoned Vampire players, none of us need some begineer Merit like Common Sense! We decided to follow the guy into the woods. End result: werewolves kill have the vampires and make off with the cubs. In case you can't tell, I am also a very bad poker player. [/QUOTE]
