Pycossis

my biggest fail

when i was a wee lad i went to the romulous twins(when it first came into the SK world). back then the lasers killed on impact(the lvl before boss).
i "accidentally" hit the sswitch that put down the walls blocking the lasers... it basically leveled my whole team.
Yes thats right i killed my whole team

i said and i quote, "oops"
end

Fri, 02/17/2012 - 16:08

Za-Ck

Ouch

Once, when I was doing a series of Vana runs, I decided to do something silly. Right before the battle began, I typed:

/me makes faces at Vanaduke

...It ended up being one of those rare instances where instead of summoning zombies, he immediately attacks. lol

Another time, I died right next to vana, and since my teammates were circling him and getting shots in, he kept stepping on my corpse. He even eventually died on top of me if I remember right.

Heroic fail

In my first day of SpiralKnights, very happy and excited about the game, I start an adventure on the ClockWorks, so proud of myself I made my first party!
So, when I'm at depth 4, my partners run out of energy (yes, all 3), so one smart guy of the party ask to me to ''help'' them, so I pay the energy of them up to depth 7, for a beginner (3 floors = 30x3 = 90 ce) It's too much, when we are close the boss they kick me (Y).

So, mama tells me to not pay CE for strangers anymore. <<- HEHE I'm joking about this part.

Sat, 02/18/2012 - 11:54

Davlee

In the Twins

The party full of itens, health pils, and that stuff, happy for the first Roarmulous hunt, we start to kill it, but I like a week about didn't know about the lasers at the almost final, so when the twins start to fire lasers, I got a miss click in the locks, so the locks inverted and I kill everybody, and I in my house...
HOLY CHRIST I kill my party, and I with 1 bar of health start to ask for them trow out the health pils, for reviving, and I miss-clicked again and used the pils /,,/

So double fail for me :p

The fourth knight goes in. one hit and its dead.

EPIC fail

I had been doing lots and lots of Jk runs trying to get 800ce for volcanice salamander armour i had all the matts and everything else needed. When this person says to me salamander looks horrible. I thought that was a bit mean. but after he says I should try to save for skolver and divine veil like him. So i decided to look at my salamander armour. Turns out i really didnt like the look of it i had be saving up for volcanic for a year and yet it turns out i just dont like. Now i have ash tail coat and miracle hood.(got that in one week)

WARNING..'' VANDUKE DOESNT LISTEN''

Once apon a time i was bored and i has 130ce so i join my friends at depth 22, and they were doing a vana run and i was Tier 2 but i survived, so we made it all the to depth before vanduke and i ended up being the leader. so i tried to invite but it woulnt let me, i had 2 other people on my side. so we went to face vanduke i enter the room where he was and i said dont hurt me im only 10. and guess what he hit me and i said ''OW, Why did u do that and he said sorry.
THE END P.S. This is a true story; Laugh out loud

The-Pecan

so i was doing vana and died

so i was doing vana and died some where near top of level. next thing i no my party finishes 3rd starge so he walks up and sitts right on me.
im yelling for my team to revive me but wen thay touch vanaduke thay catch on fire
eventually every1 dies trying to revive me. then some one revives party and i come back alive under vana
the thing is wen i revived i instantly died again and some REALLY LOUD screech comes out my headfones
im so freaked i fall out of my chair and sprain my knee on a metal filing cabnet
i get back up (with some difficulty) and and tell my party not to revive me since i enjoy my ears
my party kills his mask and he gets off me and starts walking around
some1 revives me and its all normal
we kill vana and for some reason i get 6 almarian seals

ps: has this happened to any one else (excepting the falling out of my chair part)?

Chickencatcher

My funniest moment

I stood on top of a gate, proclaimed I was god. Then commanded the gate to change to an arena and in fear of my wrath it changed. Then everyone in the party bowed down to me.

Chickencatcher

My funny fail

So when I started playing this game for the first time I thought that if I used my shield I could cross the spikes. Boy was I stupid especially with an owlite shield. During a vana run i managed to hit the only thing of fire near me and I died (this happened multiple times). When I first faced vana I thought it was ok for me to attack vana in the front then I took hammer to the face and died.

Ludachris

well it wasnt my fault.

okay, it was not my fault but still was fail.
i am on a tier 3 arena level, i have wasted all of my mist on revives (was solo)
so i am just about to kill the last shufflebot and complete the level when all of a sudden! i freeze.
so i laugh thinking i am gonna get saved by it just passing by and reviving (i was on a heat run and had gathered a crap load)
then i see the scuttle bot coming to attack me, and see i have no energy.
-,- was not pleased (especially since it was a shufflebot)
also to make it worse, was last arena!

so yeah, curse you spiral knights for glitch freezing me!

My biggest fail...

So some time ago I decided that elemental swords are fun and being one to get some sick enjoyment out of watching the enemies twitch and spasm I decided to go for the Voltdege line.

Having ground LD and BN beforehand I was the lucky owner of about 125 Krogmo tokens. Read the wiki for recipe sequence, went to Sullivan and shelled out 100 tokens for a Boltbrand recipe. Came back to the AH to get the necessary goods, decided to check on Boltbrands just for fun... FOUR of them for sale, all for sensible prices (Like 40K or such). All that annoying grinding could have been avoided... NOOOO! <_<

Thankfully got back to 119 coins now so the Voltedge is close.

You've got notification!

I want the Grinvotec recipe to build an ice sword, so one day I decided that maybe I can try lockdown games.

I took my time to decide on my loadout, and contemplated on what gear to bring into lockdown. I was thinking that maybe I can bring a quick gun for range, a bomb for support & defense, and 2 different types of 5* swords. Maybe I should have damage or charge upgrades too.

Finally satisfied with my equipment, I entered the waiting list for a T3 lockdown.

Happily, I got brought into the waiting lobby of a game. Immediately, I received a notification. So I clicked on the exclamation mark on the top left corner of the screen and I read the notices as I watch the timer count down the seconds to the start of the game:

.
.
.

"Your trinket slot upgrade has expired."

"Your trinket slot upgrade has expired".

"Your weapon slot upgrade has expired."

.
.

-_-... zzz... Y U No tell me earlier!!!

Baodur

Baodur is appalled at the profound display of Epic Fail.

So, here is a very strange story.

I start a Vana run with a few dudes, one was a guildie, (Party leader) and we were doing fine until about depth 26 he got angry, at me and another dude, I couldn't figure out why and when I asked later I figured out it was when I had said "lol" that made him so mad. It ticked him off for some reason, I thought he was trolling when he mentioned "Stop saying that!" or just messing with me, however I wasn't sure what "that" was at the time, so I didn't really pay attention to my "lol"ing so the next time I did it, he said "Kick" and kicked me, yes... a guildmate kicked me for saying "lol". Quite confusing, of course since it was a Vanaduke run going solo or whatever screws up tokens. So I solo'd it getting only one token :/ kind of disappointing.

This is Axlcamilleris story (who has problems with his account)

I am AxlCamilleri and this is my sad but funny story i kept as a secret with my brother that took a nice piss(pee) in the pants when he saw me doing it.....(not funny)

It started when i was like 2 weeks of playing spiral..when i finally got full 3* armour.I wanted to buy my ascended calibur(4*).After i got the sufficient ammount to buy recipe and to craft it...i noticed that it wasn't a calibur...It was another sword. So i was a little pissed and went to buy another recipe...MY dumb a$$ mind was a little low so i made another mistake and wasted another 26k cr...The 3rd and last time was my last mistake...I bought a mother f....im sorry....i was saying that i bought a...a....a....helmet!!!My brother laughed so hard he pissed himself and i quitted spiral for 2 months...now im back....and now i think ill check what i buy buhahaha :D

Another short experience i had was with the last contest of the photo...i took like really 2 hours to adjust everything with the members and everything and when finally..after like 2 hours of making the set..i took the screeny...they all went so i went to send my pic....i discovered that instead of pressing the print screen...i pressed the scroll lock.But dont tell anything to the 6 other members as they think i won first price cause of that picture i never sent

Doughy:

I only started playing SK about 3-4 months ago... and so i was a noob who thought that they knew everything; that i did all the damage; that i was the most awesome... But then one day, i was doing 80 damage with my spur, and when i learnt to spec another guy... i found out that everyone else in my party was hitting 150's in tier 2... never made that mistake again.

But more recently, i was doing the snarbolax solo or with noobs to get a shield and sword (both which are barb now). When someone who COULD be doing tier 2 came and he was like i was when i was a noob (see above para); based on this, i was showing off my voltedge and my sentenza that i use on beasts and he was like:
-"LOL dude, u see this wep? its effin a TWISTED SNARBLE BARB"
-(me) "LOL dude, u see this wep? it does so much damage that it caps out, and does less than it should... casue im on noob tier"
-"Screw u, i dont need help from a stupid person, im doing snraby myslef"
He left teh party, and i was like THANK GOD hate dicks... 3 seconds later he inv. me to be his friend.... awkward.

Snarby time: the other guy in my party had left, and so i was gonna challenge myself by killing snarby with my sentenza. I was over confident and out of energy, but i felt like it. 5 minutes later, i was dead and the guy who left pm me saying, Killed sanrby, too easy. I was there, lieing on the floor my heat around me; so i reply, GREAT, i killed him 2 minutes ago... HE NEVER REALISED!!!

3rd time :P

my first time on the roarmulus twins, i have been put on switch duty and due to LAG managed to kill my entire team.
this would have not been that bad except i did it more than once.
3 times to be exact.

RAGE!!

So, I was in a arena against some thunder robots that made half my HP per att, and I needed to go to the bathroom so I said to my little cousin wait in there and check that my chara dont do something stupid he said "yes Ill take care of him!" I trusted him so I thougth "nothing bad will happen rigth?"
so I went to the bathroom and the next thing I know is that my cousin is playing and my chara is laying on the ground and he tells me "Your little guy hasnt any more blue stuff to keep going :C" and im like WTF!! it needed 1000ce to revive and all, ALL my ce was gone TT_TT that means he spent nearly 1010ce.

But when I told him what happend my cousin was so sorry for what he did that he borrowed me 5 dollars, then I hugged him, then retuned him his money and told him "This stuff happens"

Honeypot

Maybe this can help some guildmates looking to make a quick crown pick their next mission of choice:

http://i.imgur.com/FrzzD.jpg

This is the Mission end screen so it's basically a three level total, but the levels in question are quick and fairly easy, thus you do the mission in 15-20 minutes solo... A neat little way to make some extra money and heat.

final

cus laylla said i should :P

was doing a vana run. i joined a friend and was met with a high pitched moaning sound (think lawn mower mixed with camel) this player was moaning that vana should be removed from the game. feeling mean i put my microphone on and said "dude grow a pair! seriously, when you gonna hit puberty!" i was met by an awkward silence, then "uhhh, i am actually a girl......."
T^T thus i wanted to die
moral of the story, mute and don't use a microphone.

Back when i first started playing spiral knights, i had a five star friend who plays vanna runs allot so i decided to join him , so i told him to invite me and he did, so as soon as i joined him he kicked me so i had to face an army of zombies solo with my cheap static edge and i was like WTF , i attacked 1 zombie and he killed me in like one hit.
That day i wasted all my energy on reviving without even killing one single zombie lol.

Guild Functions As in Boosts for being in a guild with high Levels or Guild Hall Functions as in Guild Auction house for Certain guild prices... New bosses Like a Giant Chromalisk or Howlitzer... Something along the lines to spice the game up every once a while to make the game more FUN
