I have one that's funny 'cause I was stupid.  I was planning on doing a space race against someone, had it all set up and everything.  I got someone to play against me and I was far ahead in the space program research.  Right before I launched the evacuation modual, I said god game, and clicked.  they llaunched and nothing.  So here I am with no scientists, 5 workers, 6 children, and a rather large colony (I had built it up with metal storage facilities) going, WTF!?  Then I open the mission objedctives menu and realize that I forgot to change the game type on the setup menu

If you have more then like 75-100 (I forget the exact quantity) of scientists, you still get to live.

A most interresting little bug I found, was bulldozeing a  bit of land between a smelter and a mine, that had a tube down the middle
Robo dozer tried to move into a spot occupied by a cargotruch, to doze, and just started dozing where it was.
Coincidently, that point was ontop of a tube.   The tube was totally removed, but the smelters at the other end remained active (Idleing them and reactivating them failed to start them again.   So I think there is no check for tube completeness except for activation.)

no, it just was an invalid tube disconnect.  I had that happen in single player to me and multiplayer to someone else (I had to point it out to them, they hadn't noticed).  I used to have a screenshot of it

Just yesterday I convinced Zhukant that clicking buildings a lot makes them build and research faster.

Back on WON, me and a friend played together vs two (almost complete) noobs. I wasn't very good at the time, and neither were my friend, but we where pretty much atop these guys in a 2 vs 2, mark 500 game on La Corrida.

The first of our oppnent did have some clue however and before the attack mark was reached he produced quite a few lynx'es.. and even sent some to his allie, who had none. Obviously the 2 of them didn't consider staying on team chat, and when the first started sending the other some lynx'es the other started complaining and blew them up, basicly screaming he didn't want ANY help. However he was left with 4 laser lynxes.

So when AM was up, me and my friend each had an army of thors rolling towards the guy who actually produced the lynxes. However, we forgot that the other one had 4 lasers. So, when we had our fun killing off the first guys base, the second noob actually managed to send his 4 lasers into my friends base and took out his structure factory and agridomes, all the while laughing about a great revenge and that we both would die. Because of the buildings lay-out my friends base was mostly disabled, and as I tried to kill off the noobs lynx he blew them up aswell.

So, me and my friend then decide he should have the honor of killing the second noob, and as his army advanced, noob number 2 said this. "No please don't kill me. Lets all be friends and live in peace.... or I'll kill you all"
Needless to say, he blew up his base and quit as my friend blew up his first building.

Was kinda funny when it happened, but I doubt it'll look as funny here.
