Forgot I made this post... wonder how many replies I accidentally
deleted... =P
Anyway... In _my_ group, this is pretty standard... We've worked our guys
up to an average of 200-300 karma each... So we get a little silly. Our
shaman has catfall quickened on himself... On a recent run he had an in
character argument about whether or not he'd jump out the 20th floor

be neat. =)
