CrispyJelly 66 Report post Posted May 5, 2014 Have you ever died so badly that you didn't even know how you died until you checked the morgue? I thought it was the dragonfly that killed me. But apparently not! All I can recall is that I lured the dragonfly to the badlands, there were frogs (from spring), there were hounds (mounds), I played the panflute, rang the old bell, the dragonfly woke up, everything woke up, all hell broke loose... And it's Biiigfoot. Now we know how we should spell it. I love this game so much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spinorex 376 Report post Posted May 6, 2014 What exactly does shenangins mean?You died in such a weird way that even the game has no idea how you died. Seriously, I'm pretty sure that response is for when it doesn't have a line for a given death. It can't just give you nothing, can it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strangerdanger101 417 Report post Posted May 6, 2014 I assumed "shenanigans" happened when you get killed by a giant. No? Shenanigans happens when you die in such a way the game can't seem to figure out.(I would assume Death by Earthquakes cause Shenanigans in the morgue) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FuzzyBunnies 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2014 I can shed some light on Shenanigans as I have had it happen just once with very easy circumstances to remember. I was fighting Goose / Moose and the darkness came. Couldn't see if Charlie hit me, or Goose / Moose. Cause of death, Shenanigans Now, Charlie specifically has their own kill line in the morgue so perhaps it has to do with dying in the darkness to something other then Charlie? Or as others have said, game has a codefart and out comes Shenanigans. Could test the former though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used console to give Maxwell more shadow followers than normally possible, and eventually he died by shenanigans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love this. My favorite pre-morgue death was running into a tallbird fort trying to save my precious koalafent meat (really early game days, I thought they would eat it!) But this... I don't know how this happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InaneDugong 121 Report post Posted May 8, 2014 I dropped my backpack to fight a firehound attack during summer once. I killed the firehounds and died whilst I was trying to grab as much stuff as I could from my burning backpack. When I gave it some thought, I remembered I'd picked up some Gun Powder from a boon the day before and had it in my backpack.... I went k'booy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
