Oh yeah. What was I thinking... :-)

-Tought MitD what a real friend is


I don't think that particular feat can be put down purely to the events of this one day...O-Chul has been teaching the Monster for months.

How do you figure?

Son, that is...

How long do you think you've been here? Reading this webcomic?

Enough to figure out, that Roy's ressurection, Vaarsuvius' ultimate arcane power and Haley's fight with Crystal at the same day is probably enough by itself to move even this day (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0401.html) on a second place. Stop calling me "son" :-)

-Became the first character who openly threated Belkar and walked away. I'd count this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0125.html) as the first time, by Roy. And actually the rest of the Order as well.

But this was the day he finally finished teaching...

Which kinda answers the question in the reference. :smalltongue:

I'll count that page in Origin of PCs then.
THAT was the true first time for V, Durkon and Roy, at least.

It was a long and eventful day, yes. I'd point out, though, that the last half of 671 takes place the next morning, so Haley dismissing Celia doesn't count.

Also, there's speculation that the Peregrine Team infiltration might not occur concurrently with the war council (perhaps a few days later), but obviously there's no way to really tell on that one.

Haven't you guys learned anything from Roy's stay in the afterlife? Maybe all the characters are just having so much fun that they haven't noticed, like, 12 weeks have passed.

This is real life... well, real in the universe, not the afterlife.

They get hungry, the sun rises and sets, they'd notice the passing time.

Also, getting strangled nearly to death is fun?

Point one: Maybe it's like the matrix and reality is what you make of it.
O-Chul: "I know karate."

Point two: Maybe Ra, or Helios, or Álfröðull, or Pelor, or who is the Sun God is taking their two weeks paid vacation or quit and the other gods couldn't find a replacement.

Point three: I don't know. Maybe.

I think Roy's threat was half hearted and even a bluff maybe...I didn't have a chance to read OoPCs but can you tell me if it was serious enough. Or even as cool as O-Chul's.... ( Or maybe it is just me since I really love that character in OotS )

-Became the first character who openly threated Belkar and walked away.

Roy and V have both done this, tho they are both on Belkar's hit list and O-Chul may not be [tho that list may include everybody breathing].

I think the list "..[he] is constantly trying to murder anyone who gets in his way ! Or looks like they might be possibly thinking about getting anywhere sort of near his way at some unspecified future point, just to be sure."

From Strip 489 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0489.html).

Though your list might be a more concise of way of saying the same thing :-)

Oh, sorry about that casper! It's just that that comic was the first thing I thought of when I read this topic title, and I couldn't resist, didn't mean anything bad about you.


Roy and V have both done this, tho they are both on Belkar's hit list and O-Chul may not be [tho that list may include everybody breathing].

I don't think even Belkar would dare to put O-Chul on his list. That is a catastrophically bad idea.

That means that Belkar's brain has evolved so much that it's capable of one more emotional reaction: O-Chul.

Well...um, not necessarily...

I'm talking about how he could be angry at O-Chul and how he can't act on his rage! Sheesh! :p
