I go to a sort of dnd summer camp, run by a guy who just sets up some books and papers down at a cafe and kids set it up with him in advance, and he runs 6-10 weeks per summer. He's been doing it as his job for about 10+ years. He's basically the best DM I know and ever expect to know.
And the adventures he runs are so epic...the dice have begun to join in to make the experience more interesting.
It seems that about 1/3 of the time, a d20 will roll a 1 or a 20. People are constantly fumbling in the big important battle scene, the enemies roll double damage and get something special to go off from their weapon, etc.
Recently we had a dark lord with two familiars, twin imps. They both attacked one character, jumping towards him to attack with their poison tails, and both fumbled. This happens a lot with characters small and odd (Imps, homunculus, etc.). We decided that they both jumped at him and hit each other in midair and fell over.
