A funny thing happend to me that I was'nt happy about at that time.

I was cruising along on my new horse taking in the sites when a minathor charged down on me. "O' well" I mutterd wile dismounting and geting preped and ready.

Just as I take a swing he sails past me and starts beating the crap out of my horse. My horse goes "Hell no" and runs off with the minator after. Also picking up a Mountin lion and wolf long the way, thru a village, the village men started atacking the minator who's still after my hores that doubled back past an oblivion gate and picked up a couple of deadra for good measure.

Watching my horse with a trail of deadra, villagers and random forest creathers, I whent on my way not wanting to sort that mess out.

wahhahahahahahaha thats the best one ive heard so far

That's really sad.

You have no idea.

Glitch? Paintbrushes? Tell me more...

These stories are a blast! Heres one of my own...

I was doing the Dark brotherhood quests, first one you get, where you have to board the ship to kill the captain (let's see if i can avoid spoilers on this one)
So her I am, all prepped to have to sneak/fight pirates to get onto ship. I arrive at the docks and lo and behold, that glorious combat sounds kicks in. My hear skips a beat and I wonder who is attacking me... No one, its just the captain of the imperial guard making it his personal mission to eliminate every pirate on the docks

During this festive bloodfest, they all happen to fall into the water...Or shoudl i say the captain falls and the priates jump in after him. I happily scamper onto the ship, no pirates in sight, andhead towards the captains cabin with the soothing sound of battle and insults behind me...problem solved by the AI

I was also bussy with a DB quest when a old lady was rather tough and couldn't be killed with the tride and trusted sneak and whack methad cuz after the first whack shell just run to the nearby patrol.
So mission off to the nearist Aelyed ruin and get the attention of 2 brown bears and lead them back to her cabin.
She see's me with 2 brown bears on my tail and thinks "Oh goody. A FIGHT!" and starts a fist fight with the bears, I jump on her cabins roof and watch the show.

She starts thinking that the fight idea sounded better in her head and runs of to the near by patrol, who promtly gets his boat handed to him on a sillver platter, she heads off to the second patrol that made a brave effot but got ripped a new one, she runs stupidly into a cave and sees its full off bandits and heads back out bang into the bears that rips her to srheds.

I step in and finnish off 2 weakend bears and head of to my next mark.

O' well, Job done!

This happened to me when we closed the gate outside Bruma. The one where you teach the guard how to close it. We walked outside. I staid a little bit to loot the bodies of the fallen Dremora. When I arrived in Bruma, I saw a guard fight of the captain of the guard. The battle whent all around Bruma. The normal Guard won adn the captain was knocked out. He stood up and said "Good morning" and just walked away.


I just burst into laughter. Because not only did a normal guard randomly started the fight against the captain AND won. But the captain stoodup and said Good mornig, and jsut went on with his life.

back in the start... the goblin after a trap... let him see you and he will run to you... sometimes he gets killed by his own trap! looks SO funny when fe flies head first to you!

This probably qualifies more as a glitch, but here goes:

I was riding on my horse toward Anvil, and I arrived where the stables were supposed to be. Then, while I was standing there wondering where they were, the game rendered them around me. My horse and I got stuck in a wall. I had to use the console to free myself from the too-late rendered stables. I hope that doesn't happen again.

hmm...can't think of any funny stories now. But here is a glitch you get when you sleep on someone's bed just before they get in.

They stay like that for about 5 or so seconds before suddenly popping back into a normal position.

In reply to Panxter, you can also use your bow to trigger the trap when he is standing there. I imagine its quite a surprise to him....

Cadaver

NPCs getting hit by their own traps is awesome, I love when I was fighting a bandit, she decided she was getting wasted so ran away, straight into a ball and chain trap, first one knocked her back so the second one could send her corpse flying into the wall. But the funniest sight has to be this:

Can't remember where it was, but I just walked in and found a dead goblin laying in a pool of water with his mouth underneath the tap of a keg, of course his body started floating off so I had to put him back for the screenshot. It seems like the developers did it on purpose because he was dead with no signs of a fight or any other creatures near him, but he was floating around so perhaps it was just luck that his mouth was underneath the tap when I walked in.
Oh and this Morrowind character generation referance made me laugh for ages, had to take a screenshot!

Hope nobody minds me not using links, they are piddly files, load in a second even for 56kers.

That sweetroll thing is hilarious. I cant give screenshots since im on xbox but the funniest thing I saw was when the count of Skingrad was walking around the garden during the day. He turned completely red and it looked like smoke ws coming from his ears. Ironically I was also burning in the sun.

I saw a deer the other day in the KING AND QUEEN TAVERN! It was prancing about like it owned the place, and no one was paying attention to it!

hahhaha tahts a good one lol. one time i was making a new character
and i was fighting goblins and i knocked one back into a sewer pit and he landed on his back with his legs folded over his face....questionable content removed....

Ahhh... lets see here... ah, yes:

1)
I was in Oblivion once, and was being assulted by a Dremora battlemage (their robes are armor!). I ran toward him (or her?), and he/she walked backwards. It was on one of those bridges that lead to the citadel, often blocked by war gates. Anyway, it (?) walked back right into the lava!

2)
I killed a bandit, and took all of his stuff. But, when he landed, one of his hands were in fists, and it looked like he was whacking off. His hand was going... what was it... like 8 inches into the air! He was a Redguard, too. Guess the rumors are true... like I needed to know that anyway!

Ha ha ha, Dungeon Hunter, I get it!

3)
I once let Umbra into the ruins that she's in (Vindasel, just go to Pell's Gate, and take the road west until you stumble upon an Ayleid ruin with 2 Storm Atronachs around it), and led her through the traps. The first sight on our little trip was the poison trap, which lowered her health about 25%. Then, I led her through the pit a couple of times, and she was dead. Had a hard time with Clavicus Vile's quest, though...

That actually goes way back to Daggerfall. I've seen many interesting things, but I'll just do an easy one. I once walked in on two guards in the wilderness duking it out with bows. Not knowing who to root for (and certainly not getting two forresters on my boat) I just sat there and watched them murder eachother. I also.. happened to be playing my DB character.. soooo.. no healing magic for the guardsmen I'm afraid.

not really much but I put ongod mode on and maked an uber lighning spell.... I went around The inperial city and killed everyone I could find... but when you go into shops and stuff and shoot the items, well they fly all over. Its great.

I was in a camp somewhere north of cheydinhal with two camonna thong thugs. I talked to one of them and he said something like "Have you ever seen a land Dreugh, we call them Billies, I'm not sure why though"
Now that had me grinning.
