Mud2 Insane Deaths!

Send me some more of these please, I can't remember very many and we did have hundreds :)

Another silly death from Morloc

After using a lit brand to enter a room I carfeully put all my new findings in the carpet bag and then trudged off to the swamp. Just before I got there I remembered the lit brand and tossed it. What I didn't realise until I heard the sound of boom after entering the swamp, was that I had actually put the brand in the bag as well, which had caught alight.

Annoying I lost about 800 points. But the weird thing was that apon returning to the swamp area I found the bag still alight with some things still in??? Did the explosion blow it out of the swamp?? Not sure but I recoupped some of my lost points!

Another silly is forgetting the lantern has a light in it! Why I thought it didn't I will never know but the swamp sure did go boom!

Yet more silly deaths from Swiz

going south to try and leave the cellar
riding leaky sampans into the sea
drinking the delusions vial without realising it and thinking that it was a recover stam...
trying to flee south past the ogre
forgetting where you are and wandering into mobs of evil things
fleeing south form a pk then going north to get out of the area
typing eat it while in beanfield
listning when people tell you to w*nk and so forth
drinking medicine while healthy

Firefarter's Mammoth list of silly deaths

I really don't know what i thought typing FOD ME would accomplish..
Flee j, get all, etc when fighting the rats -- always a killer:(
I also got the vials mixed up, but this time it was the Summon Mobiles vial -- leading to another amusing death by rats and pks.
While it's not a permanent death, going to the rapids with Argle online (for the unfamiliar, a player who finds it fun to give people lit brands at the rapids, WHOOSHing them at the swamp) has ruined many a set for me, once killing me after doing the dragon, and another time disposing of my 5 wfs, HH, ********* and ls.
Attacking all 8 apes at once is normally done only by newbies who don't use ID mode, but somehow it continues to happen to me.
Running off the edge of draggy isle -- another surefire way of losing the 2.5k you've just spent ages fighting for.
G wf fr player while in a fight, followed by Ctrl-L a lot, may seem like a good idea at the time.. but i assure you that the 20ish free hits they get against you will convince you otherwise.
After picking up a bunch of pebbles (don't ask, i was very bored) i got into a fight with the eagle, so i typed USE PEBBLE, my guard dropping with every change between pebble... 11 free hits... not updating persona.
Fighting Fruity's fully-kitted warlock with my unkitted sorc -- why??
Fighting Reverence's fully kitted warlock with my half-stam, unkitted hero -- oh, wait, i won that one:)
Hanging in there on 6 stam because they're reattacking a lot.
After learning the item i need to do the dragon, but not knowing what to do with it, i threw it at him, and then wondered why he criticised my methods with a HAWUMPH.
Oh yes, and forgetting to open the parasol before jumping is always a good one..
Fetching in a fight -- totally my fault, and only a retard could do it (sarcastic, if you can't tell).

Firefarter, the undisputed lemming king who is all too familiar with the 'Not Updating Persona' message

Mankoid silly deaths...

I was on 10 stam in golem and relyed on my gain stam vial :(
Figthing Goblins but accidently pressed sleep.
Went to draggy isle and when draggy came to me it didnt attack so i though id hit it.:(
Went to sleep on top floor of keep only to realise i was still fighting 4 crows..
Doing crown with Liberator and he said go ne,,,,then he said go sw,,,then he said go down,,
Was on 30 stam and had just killed King,,,queen was near death so i did pick all to get diamond,,,Ouch i said,,,thats hot,,,,I went to sleep,,,and never woke up,,

Here are three sad stories from Tangle.

1). I seem to have done most on the list however this one really upset me.

I'd fought my way alone through 3 sets of dwarf guards to get to the King. I slept and the dream word 'slag' appeared. I duly said it. I was killed instantly for abusive language.

2). This one did for a necro having been attacked by 'someone'.

eat wf
I dont know what wafer you are referring to.
g wf f box
The box is closed you idiot.
open box, eat wf
you're too full to eat anything...
vomit
aet wf
I dont know what the parser thought of that because I was reading the not updating persona message...

3).The one and only example I can remember of a friendly parser was:

CENSORED

And it did!
(try CENSORED to prove it)

Here are some more sent in by Lestat (12th Feb 98)

I can testify to having done the Get All after touching the ts thing....
Also: G GROAT, RUB T (while carrying the ox, in the bathroom).
Unblinding someone who's doing the basilisk is always fun
Typing "D T" instead of "DR T" in the swamp...
F OVER, G ALL (when fighting by the cliff) - although I've seen someone using automatic re-attack macros accidentally follow someone over the cliff!

Cat's List

I was attacked by Angelique as Dragoon and was getting low on stamina so I drank my vial, sadly it wasn't the gain stamina vial but the lose stamina vial...
I haven't done this yet but I've seen Barf do it after successfully surviving the touchstone, typing GET ALL.
The classic of Eat Wafer has yet to let down the dwarf guards...
Getting the litter word instead of the dream word. This is pure evil :(
Jumping like a lemming over the cliffs of the Dragon's Isle. The room directions aren't reversible!
Typing flee out in the scriptorium and...it doesn't happen!!! ARG!! Then you die of course (gg).
That swine Valetant I swear he undeafs you just before the Banshee shouts on purpose!
I never realised you could go down in the swamp until someone said you could die that way :)
As Ash the Warlock I wandered through the Fairy Ring thinking, 'Why the ring is here, the Dragon MUST be dead (sob).
Of course running up to the Airing cupboard with the keg is pretty classic too...
Being killed by the mouse...attacking even the mouse on 1 stam isn't too clever (g).
Jumping off the cliffs just after the Thief stole my parasol.
Swearing while in a fight doesn't happen more than once...best to save it till afterwards.
Hanging in there on 10 stam because the zombie is 'Close to Expiry'.
Oh yeah, reading the RG in the sorcerers room!
Oh here's a good one. There's me with 3 wafers or so and a couple of great stamina vials. I'm attacked. Is it by the devil or a couple of players? Who can recall this stuff :) But I'm down on wafers and close to passing on. Hey, the other guys only slightly better off. Time to go for the Vials methinks. But no! I need to pee first, I'm not thirsty...and I've forgotten that I'm carrying the potty :(
Fighting a necromancer with my sorcerer. I have to try to steal her box of wafers or lose. So there I go, and with 5 or 6 attempts I succeed! And so happy I am, I forget to eat them....here comes the backlash...5 hits in a row...NOT UPDATING!
Oh and doing the wrong herb thing with the wolfie.
Grimm did this one. Fought a fight and fled on low stamina. Flee j,get all...you know the drill, off he goes, but wait suddenly he keels over and dies dead dead! There was a little tiny lump of uranium lying around he didn't notice :)
