Hmm....just imagine this:

GM : You're going to take a geas with your abilities?
Munchkin: Yea, I'm going to have to whistle a tune or
some song while I do my thing.
GM : On everything?
Munchkin : Yea.
<late on that game day>
Munchkin: Okay, I'm going to sneak up on the guard
with my stealth skill and kill him from behind. <rolls
very large fistful of dice> Great! I've got 4 4s, 3 5s,
and 2 6s.
GM : Okay reroll the 6s.
Munchkin : Sure, but why? <rolls 2 dice>
GM : <notes results on second roll> Okay, here's what
happens, You get about three feet away cock back for
a killing blow and the guard turns around and puts two
bursts into you. Seems you failed to silence your
whistle.... <Evil grin on Gms face>....
