I just got totally and royally screwed over in morrowind.

I was doing a quest for a thieves guild in this one place and I picked up a 'reordean(sp?) cooking secrets' book. I though "hey, I can sell this for money! weeeeee!"...

5 quests later I find out I need it for a quest. And I don't remember if I dropped it somewhere or who I sold it too if I did.

So the question of the day laddies/lasses

When has morrowind royally screwed you in the bum hole?

EDIT: Another time it ****ed me over, I don't have a sound card in my newly built computer (still waiting for it, its in the mail) and I just got installing the GOTY edition on my PC. It won't let you play without sound!!!!111oneone.

Those evil bastards at bethesda...

other that that I WUV THE GAME!

Your not really Royally Screwed. Just don't do the quest. My character's fine and I've never heard of that quest. That being said, my first prototype character lost a bunch of soul gems, along with other items, to the town guards when I got caught unlocking a door. I payed the fine and a few hours later realized what had happened. I started my character over not knowing about the evidence box.

That has happened to me 3 -three- times.
First time I accidentally sold the Hlervu locket you need for the Mal Bolagmer quests to some random shop keeper, so I had to restart.
Second time was the Sharn-glitch (mage in balmora you give skull to), where Sharn just vanished without a trace. I had to restart.
Last time was just a few days ago, when this happened... So I had to restart...

It does get pretty old after a while

I once killed Baladas when collecting the Propolyn Index stones. Later on I decided to join Telvanni. Only after about 20 levels did I discover that I shouldn't have killed him.
