So here it is. Post your odd happenings here!

Was finalizing some business down in the ole mines, jumped on the trolley and was heading back. Like, why waste all of this time, I'm done, lets go. So's I cast a teleport spell while riding the trolley, and bam, I come to an abrupt stop with my trolley right there in front of SP at the gate, "if ya want out put ur writ in da drawer" made for a good laugh.

LOL!

OK I have several, I'll start with one though. I was on my way to become a boogre ninja. OK my character already was a boogre and I had side stepped the salds so I wouldn't get killed (level 5 warrior). Anyway, I thought I'd side step them again using the old tree surfing trick. So I jump up onto the wall and turn around when(!), *theatrical pause* :D , I notice that I'm stuck inside the wall! Aaarrgh! Could it be that boogres just are too heavy? Or was I attacke be wicked loud mouthed aliens sent by Sebastio? :D

<font size=1>Or was it mearly a glitch in a tile ;) </font>

In the Crypt of Valeia the Spirit of the Wizard drops the wizard's crystal. It is used to raise the wizard stairs. But then: At the end of the stairs lies the jindol of the WARRIOR. It is then used for accessing the path of the wizard. The opposite goes for the the spirit of the warrior and soforth. :D

In Skull Castle there is a pool of lava with a broken metal gangway across. In this pool it is actually possible to fall through the surface of the lava and swim in it due to some flaw. [img]smile.gif[/img]

When i was in the Serpent's Temple and had just released the monkeys, the one carrying the statue was SUPPOSED to run out through the door right? but mine didnt, instead i saw it running into the wall in that exact same room. killed it, but no statue fell down, and i only found it lying somewhere else in the temple (took me super long too........ [img]graemlins/madhell.gif[/img] ) !

One can climb to the top of the main building of Shurugeon Castle either by stacking a ladder from the castle wall or from the ground. But surrounding the roof is some sort of invisible fence. That means one has to jump further up than just to the level where the roof seemingly is. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Need I mention the two words: 'Land Shark'????

Or this one time when I cast binding force on a troll guni really close to the town gates and HE WAS PERMANENTLY FROZEN. For some reason the spell never ran out, even when I hit him (with a plain old long sword +1).... Just wish the same thing could happen with one of the storm spells........

Once a spider spawned inside the gate of Ishad N'ha. I had to walk close to the gate and look alongside it to be able to place the cursor over one of its protruding legs just to be able to throw a storm spell on it. (That was before I learned the art of gate climbing and tree surfing).

Ah, so many glitches, so little time...

Let's see...

My most annoying one was getting stuck with stars or arrows or whatever that i didn't want, dropping them, and then auto-picking them up as soon as i move. What a pain! The funniest bit of the glitch was my attempted lazy solution - target and shoot a roach or rat with a ranged weapon. Problem this is a guaranteed way (for me) to crash the game. Oh well! I just troop along until i find some poor underling who wants to die slowly and shoot him silly. He he he.

The other one that really stuffed me was in the boogre mines. I went and met the samurai's girlfriend (sorry her name eludes me) and when i came back with the ring she was stuck in the wall. Very funny I thought.
"I will open door" trudge trudge trudge...okay i'm waiting...Are you waiting for some other codeword or what.
Oh stuff it, I'll just kill you and work another way out. You can't be killed? Damn!
And shut up about the ^&^$ ring already. I gave it to you OKAY!...Reload. ;-}

Just recently had a funny one in my last game...

I was playing an evil ranger, running around and slaughtering all the NPC's. I came across Erzebette, and, after getting the letter off her, I starting stabbing. She called for help; 3 woodland rangers appeared. The point of this story is, at one stage, they all cast toughen on me (after casting venom bites and stink bombs). Strange, or what?

Erzebette: Help me, good rangers!
Ranger: Casts toughen on Moiraine Sedai
Moiraine Sedai: What the ... ?
Erzebette: ~ GROAN ~ You just can't get any good help nowadays. I have to do everything myself ~ Hurls knife at Moiraine Sedai ~

Moiraine Sedai

Oh yes, then there is the subject of "touching". The message one sometimes gets in the Serpent Temple: - Serpent priest tries to touch [character]. - Serpent Priest misses. That is peculiar. I have never seen what it actually does!

One of the strangest things I've had happen... the skeletal guards in front of the entry hall to G'ezzered Ra's music room in Skull Castle... you know, the ones who let you know you've been cleared to see him? They somehow appeared in the room above there, still letting me know that I was cleared for a visit. They also existed below... I guess the vertical hold was off for a bit [img]smile.gif[/img]

In the transition room between the catacombs of Shurugeon Castle and the tower, (the Wilderness map of the room) the room has not been made wide enough on the automap. So wen one walks into the corridor leading to the elevator one is actually outside of the map.

I was traveling into Stout mines by horse, when I noticed
one of my characters didn't have Clan invitation scroll.
So I casted Create Portal and Call to Home while standing on horse.

I entered into town, get that scroll and went outside the town.
I saw my horse stucked into town gate!

I couldn't ride it anymore... :(

And next into Boogre bar, I pay you drink's, it's my 500 post! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Congrats, Olli Kalma!!! ;)

u couldnt ride ur horse anymore? man that gotta stink really bad, olli..... and congrats on ur promotion! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I think the multiple writ bug deserves to be mentioned in this topic. [img]smile.gif[/img]

The area just behind the portal of Isis in the pyramid is sealed off by an invisible barrier until the portal has been activated. This is of course done to prevent one from standing there when activating the portal and thus having Cet appear in the middle of ones character, but it just seems odd at first. [img]smile.gif[/img]
