* [[WordOfGod Gary Gygax]], in the introduction to ''Return of the Tomb of Horrors'', tells the story of [[invoked]] how at one [=GenCon=], one team actually succeeded in the adventure by using one of the no-saving-throw instant death traps ''[[HoistByHisOwnPetard against Acererak]]''. "I put the crown on the demilich's head while my buddy taps it with the wrong end of the scepter." Made doubly awesome by the fact that ''the tournament's DM called in Creator/GaryGygax himself for backup'', and Gary admitted that it would work, and ruled that Acererak instantly died. First prize!
