Could sworn I'd posted here...
Anyway, the coolest 3.5 I had was when I was playing Tomb of Horrors. In the Lich's throne room, we found a cursed gem of wishing, which I picked up. I was playing a 10th level Elan psychic warrior, building her around total self sufficiency through psionics. I wished to gain the experience to reach level 20 (more or less). Well, the gem sucked said experience from my party members, dropping them down to level 1, and made up the difference in years of aging. However, Elan's don't age, so, the 100 or so years of aging did nothing to me. And then the second part of the curse happened. A hellfire spell triggers around the gem to kill me off. I take the blast, making my reflex save and absorbing the remaining damage with my psionics. It drained me pretty much of everything, and my party members realized what happened. They attacked me. The druid's wolf attacked first, but I used my final power to transfer 50 points of damage that I took into it, effectively killing it instantly. The prestidigitator (some skill monkey that makes rogues look like clumsy freaks?), however, managed to get between my legs with tumble, and wish everything back to normal. Well, normal as interpreted by the gem was that we all were dead.
Of course, being level one, the check should have failed on his part and I would have cleft him in half... but blah. I was an attack roll from becoming a supervillian. Power corrupts, right?

The Bard in our party drowned a pirate in a barrel of Rum...What a great way to die.
And in another game, a male elven Cleric got resurrected as a female dwarf, and of course the male dwarf fighter started hitting on the newly made female.

Another funny moment was myy friend was playing a 6th level 6'3" Barbarian.
His goal in life was this, "Hi my name is Allen, and i want a tent"
But he never got his tent because my 10th level fighter, who was 5'2" and a cannibal kepot stealing it and brning it. Then later in the campaign there was this hard liquer called Tarasque blood. The Elvin fighter before me took a shot of it, he almost passed out it burned his throat. Then my little cannibal took some and passed out hitting his head on the counter and almost got a concussion.

hehe, gotta love this, to help you better understand, the cleric had already gotten hit in the same spot.
DM: okay, you approach the solid metal door and you hear something whoosh through the air, then you feel a sharp pain in your shoulder.
C: What? fine, i'm going to see what hit me and then open the door.
DM: You look at your shoulder and there is a glowing red javelin in it, you begin to feel very weak.
Ranger: I'm going to walk over and tackle C out of the way before something else hits him!
C: no!
DM: too late C, the ranger tackles his friend and another javelin flies *rolls D20 (20 +1 for javelin) The javelin bounces off the wall and splits the javelin that is in your shoulder in half, then drives the spike deeper into your wound.
R: I'm going to try to pull them both out.
Fighter: no wait, I'm going to make a listen check at the door, then pull out my weapon just incase!
DM: *rolls some dice* Okay, as you go to open the door, it slams open and smacks you in the face, knocking you out cold.
(This is when the chaos starts.) Okay, R and C, you both are being swarmed by goblins and orcs, R you are faced by a squad of seven orcs, C you have 5 goblins and an orc.
R: I'm gonna use my ring of three wishes, and wish for us to be back before we came into this room.
DM: *rolls a die* Okay, your wish is granted, but you transport all of you including the goblins and orcs, into the previous hallway, you three are surrounded.
haha, i loved that part, the ranger and fighter went into a bloodcraze and killed half of them, while the cleric sat and casted a few spells, i played the ranger.
and then in a recent campaign.
DM: You both get chopped in half, then end.

When I was overseas, most of my friends who were in my section (Nutrition Care Division), we'd gather and play D&D with Mikolij as our DM. During the game, my cleric of Anubis developed an intense hate for the arch-demoness Lillith after several confrontations (During this part, we had all gained the half-celestial racial trait, with the exception of one who gained half-dragon trait since it was based on 1.> how we rolled, 2.> our alignment). At endgame, my cleric squared off with her in single combat, and I got in 3 natural 20 crits! However, to the prophecy, my character died in the fight (he was buying the others time to destroy the demon generators), but was then brought back in the final battle as a demi-god by the DM and slaughtered Lillith and her minions (According the the prophecy, one would make the ultimte sacrifice, but an even greater power shall arise from it.)
So yeah, my character became a diety razz level 0 deity, but still

it was a while ago but this was one of the first times i was playing 4th ed
my party members and i had killed off pirates on a ship of those pirates was a mage
i had looked to see what the mage had and found like 10 plat and 50 gold
later on i pulled out the new sack of change ^^ and my friend asked where i had gotten it
i told him it was my original money pouch
corse we did our rolls and i bluffed him with a natural 20 and he rolled a 1
so our dm had said to that particular player that his character believed everything my character was saying
but the merchant had rolled a natural 20 and knew that i was bluffing and was snickering the whole time i was talking to the other player
let me tell all of ya i still hold it against my friend and i wont let it go xp

my favorite moment...? well, here's some backround first.
my groups always end up getting out of hand. storming castles is what they do on weekends after getting their morning coffee.
so the greatest moment in a campaign for me was the start of one, when i told them that we are playing in a sort of FF-style setting, with bell-curve dice rolls and castle guards fully armed with automatic rifles and smoke grenade launchers. THEIR FACES WERE GOLDEN! xd

My group has this joke that we play on unsuspecting new members every once in a while...
I feel so sorry for L right now...
DM: Okay, L. You're suddenly at the bottom of a hill, and at the top of the hill is a gazebo. You hear evil voices.
L: Can I take out my bow and shoot it?
DM: Yes.
L: (begins to roll)
DM: You hit the gazebo. (L looks bewildered). What now?
L: I...walk up the hill to the gazebo.
DM: You walk up the hill.
L: Um... I go into the gazebo.
DM: You're in the gazebo.
L: Can I make a spot check?
DM: It's a gazebo. Whoop-dee-do.
A: Does he still hear voices?
DM: Yes, he still hears the evil voices.
L: (looking freaked out) I think I'll try and leave now.
DM: TOO LATE! YOU HAVE ANGERED THE GAZEBO! YOU DIEEEE.

"YOU HAVE ANGERED THE GAZEBO! YOU DIEEEE."
I've had a few of those in my Campaigns.
Anyway, I like the Campaign as a 21st level Sorcerer of Chaotic Evil alignment and the rest of the group was particularly Good, not necessarilly Lawful, but definitely Good. I had to continually make Bluff checks to make my character appear to be of a Good alignment and Will saves to keep myself from trying to kill my party.
Anyway, at one point, I botched my roll on a Will save at one point, then botched the roll for trying to cover up with a Bluff check to keep their attention off of me. So, following the moments after, they find out that I'd been a horrible person after all this time - for 20 levels to be more precise!
So, to begin the murdering of party members, I cast Wish and ask the GM if it'd be possible to bring an awake Tarrasque before me (not under my control, but just to have one appear). From there, I Blinked out of there to watch the chaos from the Ethereal plane, not realizing our Ninja could pop into the plane and kill me.
xp
Needless to say, the Tarrasque wiped the team, the Ninja killed me, and several towns and small cities fell under the destruction of the monster's hunger. It later fell asleep, satisfied for the next few months.
And all my character could say was: "Cute."

Okay, Well my group was camping in the forest, before checking in for the night a ghost drifted into the center of the camp. The Paladin that, lets say was lacking in INT points, charges the abomination. The others close in, including the wood-elf ranger and halfling rouge. The Sorceress notices our weapons going through the ghost so she takes it upon herself to cast fireball on it. The bead flies out and explodes, making the ghost disappear and allowing the rouge to experience flying for the first time. He flew through the forest about 50 feet away and into a tree. Strangly enough the others succeeded their reflex save.

If there's anything I love more in a game, its screwing over the DM when they created a completely one-sided match-up.
In a one-shot I was in recently, I was playing a Dragonborn Fighter. The goal of the one-shot was to ransack 5 islands in 10 days (game time). When we arrived at the fourth island, we were immediately sent into combat. It was probably 30 on 4 (including me, there was a rogue, a bard, and a shaman. Yeah, great party, right?), and I thought, "...oh crap."
I looked though my powers list to see if there was anything I could do, and then I remembered, "...wait a minute. I've got Hurl Dragon Breath."
... twisted
So naturally, I used one of the two only ranged attacks I had (my second being a throwing shield). I was able to hit everyone on one side (around 15 units), and I was rolling really well (between 14 and 20). I didn't get everyone on one side, but I was able to take out all the minions on one side.
It was a glorious day for me.

My second favorite was in the same one-shot I mentioned previously. On the first island, we needed to disable a lighthouse which would bring the militia over to stop us from ransacking the island.
When we reached the top, I was in combat with one of the guards, and I had him close to an edge where he would probably get killed if I made him shift. So, naturally, I used an attack which would make him shift...and rolled a nat 20.
Now, I knew the DM was surprised, because she wasn't expecting any of us to make it out of that lighthouse without alerting the militia. It was written all over her face. The following conversation ensued.
DM: Alright, make your attack roll.
Me: *rolls* ... Umm...does the guard want to say any last words?
DM: ...Did you seriously roll ANOTHER 20?
Me: Uhh...yeah...
DM: *as guard* A Dragonborn? Defeat me? That's madness!
Me: *as character* ...
DM: *as guard* ???
Me: *as character* THIS! IS! CRITICAL! *punt*
