Death by equal parts stupidity and luck. DA2, fighting a dragon, all three squad members die in battle, I manage to worm my way into a spot where the thing can't attack me, too far for it's melee attack and too close for it's ranged attacks and It can't move closer but it's AI won't move it farther way. I get impatient when I run out of mana so I use blood magic to fuel my spells, I then instead of turning off the Blood Magic use the last of my health to fuel a spell, I had hoped I would have atleast one point of health after the spell.

God i hated that fight as a warrior in the end i just ran around drinking potions,doing my occasional ability on the dragon until it died

Pre-Alpha-Testing my game.
Got down to 3 health, shit.
Take out minigun and mow everyone down.
Snipe all targets that come in range.
Take out RPG-7.
Destroy police car.
Fire into wall. *facepalm*
...
Then when I respawn I get 20 grenades thrown at me.

I once controlled an empire, 3 stars where under my control. Over 40 planets, were awaiting my command. Fleets of many ships ready to act at a moments notice.

Then the bastards ganged up on me and rofl stomped me :/

lol I'm still making the engine, and it still looks very bad  :P and we have 1 map. AI is currently set as "Insanely moronic".
those were mostly all the weapons that we had added so far (grenades are basically shells with a timer  :P)
...
and it's a top-down 2d game :D
...
we're making progress

EDIT: "Alpha" means all the features are done but there may be bugs. "Beta" means most of the bugs have been weaved out, this is the intense playtesting part. "Gamma" means it's basically ready to ship/publish, this is where folks check to make sure everything was done (and done correctly) and where everyone plays it through beginning to end. "Gold" is when it's done ;)

Alpha is "almost done", Beta is "more than almost done", Gamma is "about 99% done", and Gold is "99.99% done" ;)

Alt + Tab while autorunning. Happens a lot. And i do mean A LOT

Any game that has auto running and allows alt+tabbing has killed me, or would if i played it.

It's not a mistake, it's a way of living.

Ever fall asleep auto running? Wake up completely confused? This was a bigger problem in EQ 1, but in EQ 1, everything was a bigger problem.

I last died when a Bright wizard took on myself and two other naked low level sorcs.

On non-pvp servers, it was always people auto-running into the agro range of guys like Cazic Thule. Or autorunning off the ledge in the Hole. >.>

It doesn't help that I'm dieing like mad in a pink cheerful wonderland of sawblades, bullets, langoliers, and pepto bismol that kills.
