==Leaping Wizards - The RPGA in a Nutshell== The Spoony One from [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment The Spoony Experiment] was an RPGA DM once, and ran a few adventures at an RPGA event once which he kindly recounted for us on an episode of his show, [[Counter Monkey]]. The adventure called for a potential random encounter with a trio of level 1 NPC [[wizards]], all with Magic Missile - a laughably easy encounter by 2nd Edition standards, since they had one level 1 spell ''per day'', and even if they hit the same target for max damage, it wasn't very likely they'd kill it. Spoony, a bit miffed that the bulk of the adventure thus far had been specced in such a way that it was easymode the entire way thus far - especially when half the group ran [[Munchkin|highly optimised]] [[Clerics]], [[CoDzilla|causing them to steamroll encounter after encounter]] - decided to set up the encounter so that it actually had something resembling a challenge to it - one Wizard took ''Sleep'', one ''Charm Person'', and one ''Ray of Enfeeblement''. Cast in this order (and with a masssive amount of luck), the first disabled four people (including the clerics), the second sicced the party [[rogue]] on the [[fighter]] (who pretty much one-shotted the guy), and the last fucked up the last man standing so bad he became overencumbered. Two wizards kept wailing on the warrior while the third murdered the clerics in their sleep. The ambush from these three Wizards caused the deaths of roughly half the party. The RPGA overseers at the event were ''furious'' with the fact that Spoony caused PC deaths, and called him to task for changing their spell loads, and they revoked Spoony's GM privileges. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G5PjlCMlGw/ It was ''hilarious''.]
