      I love the stories. One of my favorites is actually from the first or second session I ever played. Basically while this was going on I was helping hold back a group of goblins consisting of riders and footsoldiers, meanwhile a friend of mine who was playing a wizard decided to cast a spell that caused a room where goblin necromancers were casting a spell ,trying to raise a goblin warlord, to fill with a thick choking smoke. This caused the GM to make a concentration check for the goblins which all but one of them failed causing the small side room they were in to explode.

    That's awesome. In our group it's, "How much armor do you have?"
    We were playing a post-apocalyptic game, and the group set up a meeting with a powerful local gang who were known for hording all of the best tech. Well, the team had just taken in a new player, and this guy had the clever idea of ambushing the representative when he shows up in order to get better leverage over him.
    So the gang rep shows up in tactical armor, riding a really heavy armored bike and the new guy jumps him. A lucky shot takes the guy off of his bike and out of the fight in a single hit. The new guy become really obsessed with the bike and all of it's goodies, so I point out that it has some kind of round pendant with a short chain stuck onto the bottom of the control panel. The guy quickly grabs the chain and pulls the "pendant" off of the bike.
    While examining the featureless coin-like pendant, he sees that the display panel has lit up and is displaying numbers. 8, then 7, then 6, etc. To my surprise, the party becomes even more interested in the bike and this impressive computer it clearly has. They begin poking around it and watching the countdown until it hit's 0. Then I rolled a quick roll, did some calculations. Nobody was going to survive the detonation, so to be fair I thought that just maybe I could knock some of that damage down with their armor and just have them thrown clear of the worst of the blast.
    I asked the question, "How much armor do you have?".
    The group leader looked sideways at the new guy, and then frowned at me. "We're dead, aren't we?"
    "Yeah."
    It's been around 20 years now and to this day any time we're playing any game and somebody is about to take or deal a lot of damage, someone will inevitably call out that line.

    I know I'm coming very late to this particular video but I recently shared it with my players because we had a sort of similar incident in Death In Space when one of the players, in order to talk his way out of a potential lynch mob kicking off, pulled out this old culinary association jacket patch that his character had found somewhere. He held it up like a badge, pointed his pistol, and shouted "HEALTH INSPECTOR, EVERYONE FREEEEEEZE!!"
    The crowd, never having encountered a health inspector before, was unsure of what his duties might be, started thinking that he was literally there to clean up their sector in which they lived in squalor because of a local gang dispute.
    He's now essentially the sheriff of Aurum Sector 80, and "HEALTH INSPECTOR! FREEEEEEZE!!" has become the go-to rallying cry.

      The cultist knife fell, leting the sanguine contents flow upon the horrid circle. From which rose a smoke. A smoke taking a shape not unlike that of an octopod, a dragon, and a man. A form becoming horribly solid in the moonlight. Great wings cast the gathered men in to shadow as the form stood to gain it's full height. Then far across the room a voice called out, "SOTT BROWN MOTHER FUCKER! I GOT A SHOWING!" A sound not unlike crashing thunder rung out twice. Cultist scattered in every direction, panic and dread compression setting in. The great figure hunched and backed out of the circle. Dissolving into the smoke from whence it came. As it is read in that ancient poem in the necrotic manuscript. "Battle not the emissaries of Scout Brown, least even mighty gods be struck down."

    Great story! That's more or less how our Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay campaign wound up having a halfling clan named 'Spunklemeyer'. Our GM worked for an agency with client (a cookie company) named Otis Spunkmeyer. Enter Otis Spunklemeyer and his amazing circus.

    I love moments like this. It is also nice to hear other DMs willing to say "I had no idea it was gonna go down like this".... I always view my DMing as setting up dominoes and watching the players push them down. This is a perfect example of that, you set up all these dominoes, and the players chose what ones to knock down and it ended up in a crazy situation like this.... It is always a treat when both the DM and Players are honestly surprised and it is something that sticks with everyone involved.

    Thank you so much!!! I borrowed this and it was amazing! I am running an open legend sci-fi game and have made a planet which is very much based on Cyberpunk. A couple of my players wanted to have a side quest. In their investigation of a shady contact, they find that their human "Chop Shop" is a property for purchase by Scott Brown. Much of the same events happen but without the players' initial knowledge. Then they start getting messages offering to show other properties they're looking into not realizing they're being tracked through cookies on a website by a businessman, they think one of them is going to get killed in the night and ditch the com unit which has all of his money and identity in his apartment so he "...doesn't get blown up..." Eventually though they ditch the original quest and make friends with Scott Brown's salesman and decide to buy a property from him when they have the funds. Thank you so much for a wonderful night of gaming.

      Daisyhead It's short, at least. Lol Ok, so a buddy of mine is running a Spycraft 1st edition game years ago set in the 80's. We end up on a mission where we need to infiltrate an underwater base run by your typical Bond villain. We had been using a Ford Bronco throughout the entire campaign up to this point, and it was practically a member of the party, and we wanted to bring it with us again... underwater. Well, Spycraft had a module for vehicles that makes them submersible you see. We needed to use absolute stealth though, and couldn't just blast our way in, so we hatched a plan. We made the Bronco submersible, took our usual gear, and put on our clown costumes. Yes, our clown costumes we had put together. Had a plane drop us off in the middle of the ocean, and drove straight towards the facility. You see, we needed the clown costumes because we knew the base had windows looking out into the ocean, and were worried we would be spotted by wandering guards and what not. We knew if they spotted 4 secret agents in a submersible vehicle the alarm would be sounded, and our goose would be cooked. So, without even trying to hide our approach, we drove straight to an airlock we could use dressed up in our clown costumes, waving our combat knives around in front of the widows covered in fake blood, smiling like maniacs. Acting exactly like a group of murder-clowns. And you know what? Damn thing worked. Any guard who spotted us botched his roll, thinking they had simply gone mad and was seeing something utterly impossible. The rest of the mission did not go smoothly, but by god we got in like a demon's whisper.

    Great story! I actually introduced my Pathfinder group to your channel with this one.
    We were doing an RP-heavy session where my Dwarf Cleric went on a date with a barmaid from the group's favorite tavern, and our DM had to come up with a name for a popular high-end restaurant on the fly (my Cleric's no cheapskate) and he came up with the Cheese Forge, a fancy fondue place. Naturally, the entire group loved this name so much that we were instantly gushing about it and cracking jokes, saying we wanted Cheese Forge T-shirts. This immediately reminded me of your Scott Brown shirt and I shared the video with the group (on a break; I'm not enough of a monster to disrupt a great RP session to share a RUclips video), and everyone loved it. So, if you picked up another 3 subscribers about a year ago, that might have been me, lol.
    Incidentally, the date went great. My Cleric's now engaged to the barmaid with a kid on the way. She's actually a member of a wealthy, prestigious clan of Dwarves (they own the Inn in question and want to make sure their kids know the value of a hard day's work), so he's marrying up. And she's a skilled Fighter with high end equipment (rich girl) and essentially invincible while she's pregnant with this child (long story) so she joins us as an NPC ally on our quests. So take pride in knowing you're part of that success story, Seth!
