Funny/weird moments in Quake...

[Orion]

This topic is about funny moments you had in Quake, in any mods.

Well, my moment was not THAT funny, but a little time ago, I had nothing else to do, so I was playing Clan Arena at dm3. Everybody dead, except me and an enemy. I only had 2 health points. I was searching for him in about 1 minute, I gone from megahealth to water bridge, and fired a rocket in the stairs direction by "accidentally" sliding my finger through the fire button. I thinked that nobody was there, immediately after firing the rocket I was thinking to go camp in the red armor area. I heard an explosion with a gib sound together, and that explosion was my rocket! That guy came from nowhere, he became really pissed! My teammates were glad to see that... lol.

In early stages of development on Prydon Gate, I found this item:

Many, many time ago, back when I had only modem connection to internet, I was running a non-dedicated deathmatch game in stock start map, just to test a DM mod I was working on then. Suddenly, a player popped from nowhere ("player noname has joined the game"), and stared idle with its white/white color set, in the spawn point. I fired a rocket on him, he died and disconnected, never turning back. I never knew if it was actually someone trying to play in my private server, a bug in the mod I was developing (it had the ReaperBot code embedded, but I didn't spawned any then) or the ghost of some player I killed somewhere coming to haunt me...

I recall one round in a RA match, lasting minutes, which is quite a while for a RA match... we eventually find ourselves at opposite ends of the level, I'm on a bridge, hes on a hill, just looking at each other.

So I fire my shotgun, just once. He crumples.

Apparently I had been cautiously stalking for the past 30 seconds or so, a player with very very little health.

playing Team fortress online with random-ass people, and stating in chat that I want to call a truce and everyone immediately stops killing and we all just huddle around and start chatting for a while, even demonstrating our techniques and whatnot. I proceded to do the same on quite a few servers after that. good times. was surprised to see so many people ok with that.

loading quicksaves made on different progs.dats is like a drug trip*
