Never play PnP games with me, people.  I'm cursed!

Then again, you don't need to run faster than the bear...

* FloatingFatMan rolls the dice.

A 1!

GM:  "Your suspensor belt batteries fail and you fall out of the air, landing in a blackberry bush right in front of an hungry black bear."

This is what would happen. I guarantee it. :p

And that would significantly reduce my need to spend solari upgrading my plasteel anti-bear armor.  What was the downside again?

The regular breaks as he rolls up his next character.
Although they could probably be avoided by bribing him with some chips or something to come prepared with 3-5 backup characters for each session.

When I DM, if a Dragon is encountered, thanks to Spoony, it rarely ends well.

There is an inordinate amount of physics involved in that mental image.

you just need to run faster than the guy in front of you.

[Biz]

you just need to run faster than the guy in front of you.

Not quite. You need to be the guy in front.

[Aggelakis]

Not quite. You need to be the guy in front.

You don't need to be in front. You just need at least one person behind you.

[Twisted Toon]

Not quite. You need to be the guy in front.

You don't want to be the guy in the front. They'll gt tripped so the guy behind him won't get eaten.

Then the DM should have used one of the best tools in his (or her) arsenal to keep players from screwing themselves over: "Are you sure?" :D

I've used this one so many times that every time I say it the players all start rethinking the entire strategy, even picking apart the entire campaign. I've started doing it when they have an idea that would work, just to keep them on their toes, and it has actually lead them to drop a really good idea and go with a REALLY bad one instead. I, being a nice DM, did not rub in the fact that Plan A would have worked perfectly fine...too much.

Its beginning to sound like its the bear that rolled the 1.

Being in front just makes you the #1 target.

but of course, because bears like to feed themselves with the most athletic and capable, you are what you eat after all. fat runners may make a good meal to a bear but think of all the bear-ups they'd have to do to work it off.

I have to ask, did anyone ever just wish for a supernova just to be a butt?  Or maybe for Superman to drop the moon on someone/thing?

in the steve jackson game toon, you could get a bag of anything. Just reach in, say what you wanted and roll to see what you got. a good roll gave you what you asked for. ask for an "anti cowboy ballistic missile", roll well and poof you got it. I was playing at a con with Steve Jackson running the game and some one did the common "i want the starship enterprise". Steve rolled his eyes because people would use that all the time and break the game. I reached in and asked for a klingon b10 battleship. got it. he had the klingons chase off the federation and we continued with the game. wish nullification.

That's hilarious.  Wish I could have been part of that game.
