Wow. Trolls with bats. "We want to sell you cookies" indeed. That's amazing.

Player´s at home (a nice little house in the elven district), someones knocking at the door ... very loud. He goes to the door-vidfone and answers, seeing a Troll in some kind of uniform, hiding a big baseball club behind his back - in the background are more Trolls with uniforms. Elf PC *uncertain* : Yes? Troll *slightly annoyed* : Open the door! Elf PC *confused* : Why? Troll *more annoyed* : Open the door, we want to sell cookies! Elf PC *defensive* : No thank´s, I don´t need any cookies. Troll *angry* : YOU OPEN THE DOOR NOW!!! *basches the door with the club* Elf *also angy* : No, go away! At that point the Trolls recognized that their clever ruse had been found out and shifted to plan B (break in). The Elf called the cops and the trolls left after a very short melee, when the PC swaped his stave for a roomsweeper. Since then, the most famoust quote in our round is 'Open the door, we want to sell cookies!' Were they Keebler trolls? Obviously he wasn't a Keebler elf - nobody sells cookies to them, they make their own ^_^ Or maybe he was a Keebler elf and they wanted to steal his cookies for sale? |

I've got a couple from one session I ran with a bunch of particularly lively folks via the internet...
IC Quotes: Mr. Johnson - "Deliver him dead or alive. However, if he's still alive, we'll just kill him ourselves." Player A - "Why would I need to slot a BTL when I AM BTL?" *exudes swagger* Player B - After Player C unleashes his unsilenced weapon inside a building after 20 minutes of sneaking just because he saw an oblivious guard with his back turned about 30 yards down the hallway (and there were 2 other players in front of him). "Why the hell did we bother sneaking then!?" OOC Quotes: Player D - After a run has completed that they made a ton of nuyen and karma on without firing a single shot due to their mage doing some amazing dice rolls and some guards oblivious to the world, the first thing said when the game is over and we switch back to OOC... "We didn't get to kill nuffin'..." |

Breaking into the house of a corporate douchebag in order to get incriminating information on him:
Tom: Remember, leave no trace. As tempting as it might be to pee on his stuff. ------ The Runt was angry about something. Cue Minecraft joke: The Runt: Ssssssssss. Rrrgh. Tom: Quiet, Creeper... ------ After an amazing camera-dodging bit of acrobatics: Mr.Black: (in AR) Tah-dah, easy as a tijuana hooker. |

Annnd another:
After requesting a non-spirit guide for our job from the Draco Foundation, this was said: "Certainly. We at the Draco Foundation have innumerable expendable doodads which we can distribute. This one's name is George." One of the players: "No no! I want a widget! Doodads have to be put in a pocket. Widgets just sit there!" |

So we had a run to steal an experimental HERF gun and the party was quite successful at it. We were hiding at a safehouse while we were arranging with the Johnson to do the drop when we were apparently attack by Ninjas (this GM has on more then one occasion said "Frak it, Ninjas attack!"). Small firefight ensued and the ninja used a flashbang to cover his escape and when everyone's eyes cleared he was gone. Problem was the room had no windows and there was a really big dude covering the doorway. The GM called for actions and since I was low man on initiative (I was a medic type character) I went last . No one was able to find anything on this guy (the heavy guns guy had even put a few rounds into the overturned bed), so I said.. "I look up." The GM got this flabbergasted look on his face and said the ninja was clinging to the ceiling. I proceeded to give the ninja a lead based injection and the party managed to recover the gun.

Was a 'simple' 3E run with my favorite character Vincent, who had a cyberarm shotgun. Get into an Aztechnology facility and rescue a captive before he's sacrificed to bloodmages. After hours of astral recon and planning our run, we get into the facility and work our way down to the detention level. I go into the room alone, while the rest of the team holds off the gaurds. The captive is unconcious and a robed man is standing in the room with him.
"Wait..." He says, "You don't know what you're doing." I reply with "That's never stopped me before!" and attacked. Turns out mages, even boss-level NPC mages, can't take a 12g shotgun blast to the face from point blank range; the GM was crestfallen. |

That should be in the Shadowrun notebooks somewhere, as GM advice: exposition and runners with shotguns DO NOT MIX.

I have a dozen quotes that sound great but are planned for stories or whatever... Wish I could share them.

The best quote from my group has been OOC and was "I'm taking Bad Luck as a negative quality, we don't use Edge that much and if i do use it there is only a 1 in 6 chance of anything bad happening." The first game, first skill test with that character was a glitch, which he used his edge to negate, and his first bad luck roll was a 1. it was epic.

His Bad Luck was OOC, too.

Reminds me of a little situationwe had once. A player had the Bad Luck quality, too.
Ganger shooting at the char: Me: He has 4 hits, would be 9 damage He: I'll take full cover *rolls dodge* 1 hit... I'll take edge *rerolls* 5 hit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ... rolls a 1... Me: Uh.. you try to jump over that desk but slip... He: *rolls soak* 2 hits... I'll take edge *rerolls* Well at least 4 hits ... rolls a 1... Me: ...and manage to catch the bullet with your face so it can't hit an innocent bystander... After that he threw the die that rolled a 1 twice out of the window. The player was really lucky, they had a dedicated medic in the team ^^ |

Heh, one of the Classic-Battle-Tech forum/mod guys went out and melted a pair of his dice after coming up with several 1's in a row.

I tossed a couple of pairs of dice in the trash after many consecutive snake eyes in Battletech also :> I've also tossed an unruly d20 used in DnD into the cats literbox. She (the cat) was not amused.
