The most priceless thing happened to me today thanks to server lag.

I was in cube in room 48 with a bomb on my head. I finished digging the chests and got my die as I had 2 seconds left on bomb.

Sad right?

So I right-click the die just cause I could.

EXCEPT I LAGGED.

Bomb exploded, sent me to room 1, then die finally stopped lagging and sent me to room 50! b:thanks

    wanna know something crazier? one time i paid the illusion stone to teleport to TT. the stone took my money, yet i didnt go anywhere.. at all. So i talked to the teleport master instead and ported to 1k so i could fly from there. The teleport to 1k worked just fine and i began my flight south. Just as i hit land of the burning heart I got ported into TT.

    talk about major quest lag. same thing happened trying to port into the cube twice that day.

    Since you were that far into the cube, why didnt you just get a room master to diffuse it?....

    Interesting, I had really bad quest lag the other day on my veno, took me about 3 attempts of talking to the NPC to enter the cube, then as I was exiting it took me about 10mins of taking
    quest...waiting....waiting....stuff it trying again.....
    @Amencat - I don't really see how that's exploiting a glitch as she had no control over it, and was expecting to be sent back to entry room and stay there.

    its just a bit of joke, b:chuckle BUT, she could actually be fair and tele back to room 1, couse the glitch coused the advantage which she actually TOOK and stayed in room 50 instead b:chuckle

    Reminds me of the Dragon Gate EX/Have a Listen room "death glitch". It works in every room but it is usually done in those two. If you use immunity pot at the end (due to bugged listening room or to avoid the mobs, for example) but get sent to room 1 after clicking the die, you might be sent to the room where that die should teleport you to.

    But why would you die anyway, if you already had your die for that room? o.O Although I did observe one person using Expel and running through the Have a Listen EX mobs... I wonder if I should try that...

    The bomb thing is funny, though. A similar situation happened to me in room 11. I hit my die just before I got PKd, and got sent to room 1 first, then the room I was headed for second. :P

    I doubt this can be considered against TOS since I really had nothing to do with the whole ordeal. Seems like this has happened to a lot of people too. Maybe it'll help others b:cute.

    Oh and thanks Hammieb:thanks
