Yes, definitely.

And I do silly accents as well.

No silly noises here but when I play solo I do narrate as I go. Helps me keep track of what I'm doing. Missus thinks I'm bonkers (I am)

Only make bad sounds when I roll poor dice.
Then it is usually, "Oh s**t." :o
Which seems to happen a lot lately. ;)
I blame it on the pandemic. lol

They are not silly noises. Especially if I am making them

They are situational and gaming enhancements designed to enable a more immersive experience for all participants.

If there are any other participants, and they are all encouraged to join in.

My wife's love and opinion of me is not impacted, she new what I am like before she married me..

Just whilst gaming? I make stupid noises all the time.


I joined my gun with pirate swords, and sailed the seas of cyberspace.

Stupid, no.  Appropriate, yes!

If you don't make appropriate noises or sounds it is not playing a game. I do it all the time. Look and listen what children do. There is no reason to feel any shame for it.
PLAY IT LOUD!

When playing any game in a Galaxy far, far away, it is required that you 'pew pew pew' when shooting.  If you do not 'pew pew pew' then the dice will be against you.

I do this too.

And I often berate one of the team if they miss an easy shot or fail to block a blow from a minor character.

My wife also thinks I'm a bit off.

Bonus points if you can recreate the Mastermind board game box scene.

Interesting back story on that photo (and the game as a whole):

Mr Teasy-Weasy sneers at your pathetic attempts to steal victory for him. Open the scorpion pit!

Huh.  Just came across my copy of the game not too long ago and gave it a play.  The box sadly is long gone, it's stored in with another game.

Do you mean things like; One more six and you've lost.
                                     I am winning.
                                     Do you concede?

Nobody could make such silly sounds, surely?
The laws of probability do not apply to my dice in wargames or to my finesses in bridge.
