What's the most retarded thing you did in game?

[Parchir]

Tried to catch firefly in this lags

[Neon14]

Holy shit, you can catch fireflies?

Probably starting playing Haven & Hearth again when I was planning to put in a lot of time to develop a game for the Liberated Pixel Cup contest (two weeks ago).
Current HnH playtime since then: 98 hours
Current state in HnH: Palisade, village claim, q30 seeds, mine hole almost finished, have wine, some metal items and bars of copper
Current LPC development time since then: A couple of hours
Current state in LPC: You can click and drag the mouse to turn walls into floors and vice versa. There is nothing else in the game yet.

In-game, the most retarded thing I regret:



After some petty thefts (was rather reckless, I went around stealing food and shit from abandoned claims, leaving scents all over the place), a wacky case of mistaken identity ensued (someone thought I murdered his friend; I only ever stole stuff, though) and someone built a battering ram outside my palisade to ram my house's brick wall, using my unsealed palisade corners to protect his ram. When I posted this image on a different forum, I got the response: "This is why you seal your cornerposts." Then I noticed something: The ram protection cornerposts were also unsealed!



I extended the palisade to block his palisade gate, confidently posted the screenshot on that same forum with the message "This is why you seal your cornerposts." and went to sleep.

The next morning, I was dead.

What most people would consider the most retarded thing I did, though:



I personally don't regret it, though, as I managed to find a server-crashing bug with it, so it's all worth it :3

How did you die then? They palibashed and rammed anyway?

That'd be my guess.

"That's why you don't put a palisade outside of a brickwall."

Stupidest thing I did... it was near the beginning of w6 and my brother was on a boat shooting a bear. I logged in and he said "help". He wasn't too far from the homestead, so I ran over to the river away from the bear. He boated over to pick me up (only had the one boat because we were usually on at different times) far enough away from the bear so it shouldn't follow, but it did and proceeded to maul me.

That reminded me of another one, hitting val strike on a bear too soon and only doing 500 dmg, it being enraged while running away from me. I unaggro it and now I have no IP, no advantage, no intensity and an enraged bear mauling my ass.

I thought enraged bears weren't supposed to run away Q_Q

Little bastard tricked me, enraged bears get +1 tactics when enraged I suppose.

I got away at least.

[dagrimreefah]

Reminded me. Most retarded thing i did THIS world was try to fist fight a bear...

While enraged

[Neon14]

Yeh, I had nowhere to go. No boat, house, nothing. I just sat there and tried to tank it, waiting for inevitable defeat. My character woke up though :>

Clicked the "New Character" button.

How's that bad?

Just a joke.

And here I thought it might have some greater philosophical meaning on gaming and HnH in general.
