GM rolls dice.
GM: Uh oh... That's never good. Another favorite of mine, which sometimes happens and makes us cringe. Player: Offers to do something really stupid. GM: Looks confused, ask PC if PC understands the situation. Player: nods yes. GA: Are you SURE you want to "insert something stupid here" Player: nods yes and grabs his dice. All other players: *cringe* Sunday |

(something I do to my players regularly)
GM: Roll Initiative, everyone. *players roll* *GM rolls 4 dice and writes down some numbers* *again* *and again* *and about 8 more times* Players: Uuuuum ...... where was that exit again? Hey, everyone has a right to be paranoid. Or, from an IC PoV: Mage: What do you mean a pentagram only has FIVE sides? ********** Newbie: *hands character sheet to the GM* How much starting ammo do my guns come with? ********** Samari: My weapon seems to have no effect? GM: That's right, it bounces off harmlessly. Samari: Oh, okay. So I pull out a bigger weapon and swing at the statue again. ********** Rigger: My vehicle comes with a gas can, right? ********** GM: I don't think that's a lifestyle expense, bud. ********** That's all I can think of that's humorous for now. |

GM: Everybody roll Quickness.
Six players roll dice... Results: Lead Troll trips. Math Prof trips. Mage #1 trips. Mage #2 trips. Mage #3 trips. PhysAd walks into pile of bodies. Edit: Oh, and, did I mention we were in a sewer with hardly a way of seeing? Yeah, thought so... Edit #2: Yes. We had three mages/shamans in the group. #2 was the Cat Shaman who forgot she had Levitate Person, so kept having to cast "Clean" and other such spells on herself. |

GM: "The bouncer asks if your character is carrying any guns into the bar."
Player: "Uh, he's got a light pistol." GM: "The bouncer says 'That won't be enough' and hands you a heavy pistol." |

Actually heard ones, on Tuesday:
"Oh. Hey. I probably should have bought ammo for my guns, huh?" (Of course, I let him have some.) "I tell the guy we're interrogating 'We're going to kill you no matter what you say, but if you talk I'll kill you quickly.'" He had a pain editor, lucky him. |

:rotfl: You have captured his speech perfectly there... makes me cringe! Okay, how about this - from the first ever run I GM'd: Me: Okay, that's the last enemy down - all five are down and dead. What do you do now? Ork player: Loot their gear! Loot their gear! Me: <sighing> Okay, I guess you can do that before the cops arrive. You take all their stuff... Next? Dwarf Player (not wanting to be out-done by the Ork): Do they have any cyberware we can take? I have a cleaver and scalpel - it's on my sheet, look... Me: ................................. |

During character introductions:
Player: He's very short with blonde hair and pale skin. -- The next line from the above player: "He looks young and has a datajack but no deck" or "He has no cyberware and is wearing ceramic pendants under his FFBA" |

"Teeth..." -- Mage returning from an astral scout before fainting
An old one: "Was that the GM rolling dice or did a thunderstorm pop up suddenly?" "I can dikote it, right?" "What's a lifestyle?" Fixer asking Decker about his setup: "Yeah, it's a custom job, MPCP 8 rated 6/5/7/6 with Level 3 Hardening, Response Increase 2, Ten thousand MP of active memory, and a case that can stop a round from a Preditor." "Okay, what programs do you have?" "Programs?" "What do you mean the CXII doesn't come with a detonator?" And my personal favorite so far... "The elf driving the van has long red hair pulled into a ponytail..." The Abstruse One |

"Huh?" --------------------------- "I cast Toxic Wave/Urban Renewal/Turn to Goo." --------------------------- "Before the rest of the team gets back I...." |
