i would have used command humanoid and built up my illusion skill on the way =D

Weirdest: stripped all the Ordinators in Vivec that crossed my path down to their skivvies while allowing them to live. Same with the southern part of Mournhold. It's quite a sight after the three-day stat reset.

A story from my days as a new player: I walk into the water near Seyda Neen, and suddenly start taking damage. I don't see anything, so I freak out and swim into deeper water, but I still keep getting damaged. I die soon after. I later learn that I had encountered my first slaughterfish.

EDIT: This post got me my first star! Wohoo!! :celebration: :woot:

The Elder Scrolls III: Pillow Forts, the prequel to Minecraft.

First time I played Morrowind, I went to look for the Dwemer Puzzle Box. Went to Angtxxxhand, searched everything and found nothing. Found the closed doors but couldn't get through and thought that the Puzzle Box must be in there, but my skills weren't high enough to open them. Went back to Balmora, trained my lockpicking skills and bought some better lockpicks. Went back, managed to open the doors, but found nothing except some dwemer creatures. Decided to give up the quest and do something else instead. After a while, I came past Angt[whatever], went in, found there was another part above the part where I had searched already and stumbled on the Puzzle Box by accident....

Made a shrine to lord Brine.
Forum members shall not be forgotten!

My first game I didn't know how to cast spells. Went hunting through the manual but somehow missed the bit that said press R on keyboard.

Second playthrough I wandered round most of the map discovering towns before i went to Balmora. Got there, went to see Caius and realised i had sold his package somewhere, but had no idea where that somewhere was.

LOL! You owe me a keyboard for that one.....

Classic.

I did too many silly things back then so I cannot remember which one was the silliest. There's one, however, which I cannot forget:

- Buying that huge claymore from arrille's

I was amazed by it; never seen a sword that long. The amount of sheer confidence I had, walking and swinging it around, cannot be described. But of course, it was all shattered by a mere, simple Mudcrab that I couldn't hit even once.

My friend was watching as it happened and still, to this day, he refers to Morrowind as "that big sword game". :facepalm:

Epic. Just train your long blade a bit and hit the [censored] out of that mudcrab

My dumbest moment was the first time I encountered corprus creatures. Personally, they give me the creeps, but also I was playing at night. I freaked out when my little sister came in the room. Luckily I can laugh about it now.

The first time I went out exploring I got caught in a dust storm. I got lost and then kept getting killed by Cliff Racers [shudder]. So I quit for several weeks. When I came back and made my way out of the dust storm alive I finally discovered just how grand and amazing Morrowind was. I never turned back.

Dangit. Now that I've gotten to thinking about Morrowind I'm going to have to go back and start playing it again....lol.

Mine was probably when i thought you could be god in morrowind so i tried to kill vivec at lvl 2 so i could be a god that was the dumbest. the wierdest was
trying to kill a scrib cause i thought they were hostile :facepalm:

My dumbest moment probably was when I got scared of scamps for weeks, after first seeing them in a daedric ruin and not being able to damage them due to my crappy iron longsword. I (honestly) thought "WTF? THOSE MUST BE SPRECTRES OR HIGH LEVEL MONSTERS OR SOMETHING!! RUN AWAY!!!". I thought so high of them that I avoided daedric ruins for weeks since that first encounter

Spent 5000 gold on an enchantment to do 1pt fire damage on a piece of paper. ^_^

Needless to say, I was pretty poor for a long time on that save after that.

Before I learned the controls, I slapped Hrisskar Flat-Foot in the face when I meant to initiate dialogue with him.

I only realized a few months ago that scribs are not hostile creatures :facepalm: four years of unnecessary scrib murdering.

I had plenty of weird moments in-game, but one particular incident I fondly remember is when I first discovered that with high enough mercantile skill, I could sell 1 gold piece to Arrille for 2 gold pieces.

I actually felt sorry for the poor sod.

Numerous instances of silliness over the years...

Going around stealing stuff, someone starts fighting me, I attack them with a lockpick...HAHA I WILL UNLOCK YOU!

Flinging Fire spells at Flame Atronachs (btw I call them Astronauts and probably always will)

UG. UG was a crossdressing Orc who liked kitties and shiny things. He stole every lamp in the world, or near enough, and if anyone hurt a kitty (slavers etc) he would go altogether mental. He would go up to people and ask "DO YOU THINK UG IS PRETTY" and if they didn't say yes he would punch them. In this manner, while slightly hammered on Shein, he accidentally defeated Dagoth Ur. Also, I played this character from the start before I had ever been to Sheogorath-land up north, so when I met that Kitty up there who looked sort of Orcish I was pretty stunned.

Punched Vivec, then Commanded him, dragged him all the way to Dagoth Ur's cave, let him fight his own dang battles. I was going to drag Ur to Vivec but he couldn't fit his giant mushroom head through the cave door.

In the Construction Set, made all Mudcrabs have 10000 HP. I do not know why.

Tried really hard to find a way to kill Azura for giving me some cruddy Night-eye ring.

Once spent a good 30 seconds shooting spells at a statue in a Deadric ruin. IT WAS DARK OK.

Made a Khajit thief character and went out to find the Shoes of Sanguine Stalking...not sure what I planned to DO with them.

Made an enchanted staff that summoned a Dremora on Strike, which was fine except every time I hit, it summoned a new Dremora before the old one could DO anything, so really it just briefly summoned a series of confused demons.

Arranged pillows under floating Vivec. He seemed more comfy that way.

Managed to put a skirt on Divayth Fyr.

Wasted a week in the Construction Set trying to make new thrown weapon: PIES. (couldn't figger how to do the animation for it).

Make ring "fire damage 1 point for 1 sec on target, damage health 40 points for 1 sec on self". Sell to merchant. Punch him. LOL

I was searching for a Dwemer Puzzle Box in Balmora Temple

I was hiding behind building in Seyda Neen when using waiting menu ("it is illegal to sleep here" )

I was killed by a rat at Red Mountain.

Im going to try that now, sounds fun

you gave me a real good time. hibby jibby, I'd die for screenies of the above....

My first time playing, I got lost looking for Balmora... I ended up meeting what'her name withn the boots of blinding spped, and agreed to take her to gnarr Mok, though I didn't know what a Gnaar Mok was. We spent weeks of game time as I dragged her all over Vvardenfell until finally she got lost somewhere (or killed or something, I never did find out). Somehow, I mamaged to avoid encountering towns at every opportunity.

You see, I had seen road signs, and I could see they were in a language I couldn't read, so I never went close enough to acticvate them... I was lost for a very long time, until I found a siltstrider and paid to go to Balmora.

I tried to open a door (75 pts) with a scroll (20-80 pts). Couldn't manage to open it, stupid scroll. I thought that maybe that 20-80 meant "sometimes it will only be 20 points, which is obviously not enough." Spent 15 minutes quick-reloading so that scroll would randomly work reaching that 75 points.

Sometimes it seemed to open it. But it was still locked, WTF. You know, *schbroing* sound, door illuminates. Nothing. Worse, sometimes the door lock points INCREASED... I was like "WTF MAGIC DOOR THAT SELF CLOSE AT HIGHER LEVEL WHEN YOU OPEN IT."


Guess what, it was a lock scroll, not an open one............

Erm, I had an issue selling items.
No, they weren't stollen.

I had spent much time playing Baldur's Gates, and for the life of me couldn't figure out Morrowind's method of barter/buying and selling! That layout just didn't make sense to me

Sooo of to the boards I can to figure it out, and the powers were gentle with me... Musta been 2001?
