Welcome to the 12th edition of the OoTS Quiz Game.

The rules are plain simple. Someone asks a question that can be answered with (one or more) oots comic strips. (However, try to avoid boring counting questions...) Then people can try to answer it which should always include a link to the strip where you can see the answer. (Please do not write something like "Ah, that's A, you can see it somewhere between OOTS141 and OOTS200. Or maybe it was also a bit later, can't remember right now, but it's definately A.")
If still no one has a clue after after -say- 24 hours (maybe earlier) hints can be given. Whoever first gives the correct answer can ask the next question.

OK, 'nuff said, let's get it started! (: YAY!)

Oh, btw... it would be nice if people edited the link to the correct strip right next to the question once it has been answered. (Not the answer itself, just where you find it.)

3) Questions have to have an answer that is demonstrated by at least one, and no more than three, canon online strip. (No bonus material either online or in the books)
4) No counting questions with more than 3 parts. For example: how many times has Roy said "the".
5) If the answer given is not the answer expected, but still technically answers the question, allow it. You can rephrase and ask your question again later.*
6) If an answer is given that in no way is correct, then players can call attention to the fact. At that point, there may be 2 questions occurring at the same time. The 1st question that was incorrectly answered is the valid question. The second question may be answered, but for no prize (aka asking the next question).
7) If your response is ninja'd, that is if someone beats you with the correct answer, please edit your post stating, "ninja'd, please answer above question".
8) After 24 hours without an answer, please provide a hint. After an additional 24 hours pass, please provide the answer and take pride that you have stumped us all.
9) Recognize that this is a game. It is supposed to be quick and fun. If a question seems to go beyond the rules, assume that the author is not familiar with the rules, and point them out. If the author affirms that the question is allowable within the rules, then continue with the game. If the question turns out to be not allowable, it becomes an open question. Groan and move on.

That seems to be a good expression of how we play the quiz game, judging by observing the posts.
If anyone wants to suggest alterations to these rules, they can discuss them here or PM me. If enough people agree with the alteration, I will edit this first post to reflect the new rule(s).


*The original rule is fine; you should be allowed to rephrase. But there's such a thing as rule overuse, which makes it wear thin eventually.

Also, there's a difference between rephrase - find a different, more precise way to word the question so it has a smaller number of possible answers - and just simply rewrite and rule out the last answer. Over and over again

Here is a link to the 11th Edition of the Quiz. (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=169993)

Here is the current question:


Find two cats fighting.

[homersolo]

Request for clarification: Are these cats fighting each other and/or are they found in the same strip. Since we can answer in multiple strips, I can find two different cats fighting, but I want to make sure I know what you are asking.

[xingbing1]

They are fighting each other. They are in the same strip together whilst fighting.
But (small hint) you'll probably need to look at two different strips to be able to figure this one out. One of the fight (which you need to find), and another which would GREATLY help you figure it out, but don't need necessarily need.
Good luck. :smallbiggrin:

[xingbing1]

It's been about 24 hours since I posted my question in the old thread. So, I guess it's hint time!

Hint: Neither of the cats are feline. (But there is still a clear reason why both of them could be referred to as 'cats')

Now you're confused! :smalltongue:

[Mercutio]

Cat Fight. Last Panel. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0608.html)

Heh. :smallamused:

If So

OQ as I am to lazy tired to think of one

[QDI]

You'll have to explain me why they can be referred as "cats".

[xingbing1]

Yeah, you need a better reason than that. My one is a lot clearer. :)

[xingbing1]

Alright, it's been about 24 hours, so I guess I should post the answer (yay, I 'win'! :smallsmile:)

Answer:
Panels 6,7,8 in this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0346.html) strip show a fight between Haley and the Druid's hawk. In panel 5 of the same strip, the druid refers to his hawk as being called 'Kitty'. Haley is later referred to by Ian as 'Kitten'. (e.g. here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0769.html), first panel)
A fight between 'Kitty' and 'Kitten' is a fight between two cats. :smallbiggrin:

OQ. I'll let you guys create some easy ones now. :smalltongue:

[dogfish44]

Find me Vaarsuvius talking about the laws of Cartoon Physics twice.

[Timeless Error]

Here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0437.html)

Here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0584.html)

I'm not sure about the last one, though. Looking at it again, it doesn't really fit the question. But I'll try it anyway.

And if I'm right, find me bigfoot.

[Lvl45DM!]

Cartoon Physics state that when you express a negative opinion of someone they will inevitably be standing behind you. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0246.html)

Find me a reference to V's superior elven senses outside of the strip I just linked

EDIT: do I get to ask a question since I only provided half an answer?

[PsychedelicBard]

I think the question is still: Find me bigfoot.

Which is considerably hard.

[Timeless Error]

Find me a reference to V's superior elven senses outside of the strip I just linked

Since Lvl45DM! provided the other half of the answer, I believe his question should be answered.

"You are a finely tuned searching machine, V." (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0030.html)

Question is still,


Find me bigfoot.

[Brisingry]

Are you referring to THE Bigfoot, or would Little roc, (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0755.html) who happens to have gigantic feet, work?

I doubt it, but if so, OQ.

[Gwynfrid]

A fight between 'Kitty' and 'Kitten' is a fight between two cats. :smallbiggrin:

Nice. A well deserved win :smallamused:

[Timeless Error]

Are you referring to THE Bigfoot, or would Little roc, (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0755.html) who happens to have gigantic feet, work?

I doubt it, but if so, OQ.

Sorry, nope. Keep searching.

[KoboldRevenge]

This Durkon's got some Big feet here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0453.html).
If it is as far fetched as that once called kitten, Cats fighting question then it might be so! :smalltongue::smallconfused:

[Timeless Error]

This Durkon's got some Big feet here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0453.html).
If it is as far fetched as that once called kitten, Cats fighting question then it might be so! :smalltongue::smallconfused:

No, what I'm looking for is quite clearly stated to be, "bigfoot".

@V: Correct!

[Kal Ironfresh]

Hands off, bigfoot! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0689.html)

Find a goblin being cut in half.

[QDI]

First panel, first strip! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0001.html)

Find a DD rulebook!

[treyh37]

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0562.html

OQ

[ScottishDragon]

Find me someone called scarface.

[treyh37]

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0656.html

OQ

[QDI]

Ok, find someone eating the only dish the Monster in the Dark does not like.

[KoboldRevenge]

Babies? (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0040.html) you know the "Mommy" Thing?
Find me someone holding their finger down as if counting a list If right

[QDI]

What I like in this comic: there are several strips with people eating children/babies. :smallbiggrin:

I will say right but I was thinking to this one (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0619.html) (11th).

[calar]

What I like in this comic: there are several strips with people eating children/babies. :smallbiggrin:

I will say right but I was thinking to this one (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0619.html) (11th).

How do you even know those are children/babies the dragon is eating?

[Lvl45DM!]

Indeed remember how big dragons can be

[QDI]

Hum, if they were adults, the green guy would be 12-13 feet tall.

Ok, it is possible (a large troll is between 8 and 16 feet) but I thought it was more logical that they were children.

Sorry if I make you loose your time ;)

[Toper]

Sorry if I make you loose your time ;)
Not at all, since KoboldRevenge found an awesome answer. :smallsmile:

Current question is

Find me someone holding their finger down as if counting a list
although I don't really understand the action being described...

[KoboldRevenge]

Similar to this but not exactly: http://www.vosizneias.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/ManCountingFingers.jpg

[calar]

Find me someone holding their finger down as if counting a list If rightI found a couple, but this one made the most sense. 306 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0306.html) (V in panel 2)


Show me a Green dragon with purple wings.

[homersolo]

I don't think you got the right finger thing. The off-hand should be touching the count-down hand, I would imagine.

[petersohn]

I remember it being somewhere, but I can't find it. But it must be there.

[KoboldRevenge]

Do you want a Hint? It's in the no cure for the paldin blues comics.

[cd4]

Haley can choose which city to spend her cash (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0205.html) for the counting.

And the dragon is one of the few toys that the MiTD hasn't destroyed yet. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0463.html)

Who's going to have trouble when they ressurect?

[Jaidu]

Who's going to have trouble when they ressurect?

[URL="http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0571.html"]The Oracle is going to have trouble that leads up to his resurrection, but I'm not sure that answers the question. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0205.html)

If it works, OQ.

[cd4]

No it does not, the trouble will start after he ressurects, though we haven't met him and it is not exactly ressurect.

[Toper]

Oh, you must mean Isamu (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0521.html).

Find three different comics with different pairs of black wings that aren't on Blackwing. (The wings should actually be black, not dark gray.)

[veti]

Find three different comics with different pairs of black wings that aren't on Blackwing. (The wings should actually be black, not dark gray.)

It's a little surprising that black dragon wings seem to be every colour but black...

But you might be thinking of Hugin (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0137.html), Munin (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0273.html), and the ferocious penguinlion (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0322.html).

What's, briefly, worth 200gp? (Advertised price, although we don't see it being paid.)

[cd4]

Oh, you must mean Isamu (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0521.html).


While it answers the question it doesn't match the hint, the answer I was looking for was the fact that a group was camped outside Two-Life Tony's cave just waiting for him to respawn (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0619.html)

So the current question is:


What's, briefly, worth 200gp? (Advertised price, although we don't see it being paid.)

[Brisingry]

Cryptic musings from an old man (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0122.html)

Find two references to a particular type of cheese.

[Isolder74]

Gouda from Greysky City. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0517.html)

Hobgoblins like Gouda (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0474.html)

Where is there proof that the Flumps are health conscious?

[Kingscourt]

Here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0432.html)

Find the Shadowdancer and the Dwarf in a comic outside of the hotel arc?

[QDI]

Here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0535.html)

Open question !

[HappyBlanket]

Nowhere to be found. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0535.html)
Ninja'd, whatever :smalltongue:

Find me a character holding an orange potion in three different strips.

[Isolder74]

Here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0432.html)

Find the Shadowdancer and the Dwarf in a comic outside of the hotel arc?

Those are hobgoblins not Flumps. You know the jellyfish things.

So the current question still is:

Where is there proof that the Flumps are health conscious?

[MoonCat]

Orange potion:

Here.
(http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0767.html)

Here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0594.html)

Still looking for the third. Or the flumphs.

[xingbing1]

In answer to flumps being health-conscious, I suppose this qualifies:
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0346.html
MENTAL health concious. :)
Anyway, we'll do the orange potion question now.

[Ron Miel]

Gouda from Greysky City. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0517.html)

Hobgoblins like Gouda (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0474.html)


Also:
Hydra burgers with gouda (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0705.html)

Gouda in the blood (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0474.html)

Are there any other references to Gouda? (that's not a quiz question, just general chat)

[Toper]

Also:
Hydra burgers with gouda (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0705.html)

Gouda in the blood (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0474.html)

Are there any other references to Gouda? (that's not a quiz question, just general chat)
I sort of think Isolder meant to link to this one (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0463.html).

[Private-Prinny]

I think the health-conscious Flumph thing was about when they may or may not have been having egg white omelets. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0444.html)

I have no clue on the orange potions, though.

[HappyBlanket]

Erm. I'm late, I'm late, I'm late for a very important date?

Mooncat's last post got two of the three. Naturally, that means that Elan is holding the potion.
The third potion provides a bonus to saving throws.

So here are the hints.
:elan: I just hope it'll be enough.

[PsychedelicBard]

This. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0593.html)

OQ.

[Ron Miel]

What adjective describes Haley's hands?

[MoonCat]

What adjective describes Haley's hands?

Three fingered? (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0765.html)

If so, and I'm not sure, OQ

[Ron Miel]

No, sorry. It has to be a spoken phrase where someone directly mentions her [adjective] hands.

[Ron Miel]

Hint time: A fellow OOTS-er is angry with her.

[Ron Miel]

Another hint.

V is the one getting angry.

[Ron Miel]

And the answer is:

Infernal (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0118.html)


OQ

[--Lime--]

Find me a reference to someone's nose.

I have one in mind but if you find another, great.

[MoonCat]

Find me a reference to someone's nose.

I have one in mind but if you find another, great.

Here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0339.html)

Open Q

[--Lime--]

Haha better than mine. I'd forgotten about this strip. I was actually thinking of Thor's Nostrils! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0429.html)

Still OQ.

[Nimrod's Son]

Find a panel that contains the name of one of the OotS books, but doesn't include a picture from said book.

[QDI]

Here! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0580.html)

Open question!

[Nimrod's Son]

Here! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0580.html)

Open question!
Nope, sorry. The panel with the name of the book also includes the front cover picture. I specifically said no pictures from the book were to be included.

[Nimrod's Son]

Okay, a hint: the words are not necessarily written in the correct sequence.

[KoboldRevenge]

I can do you one better, I can find a panel with the names of all of the books:
Order of the Stick. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0017.html) I mean whats got the biggest letters on the front? :smallbiggrin:

Probably doesn't count but any way find me a Blue X

[MoonCat]

Darn, I'd just found this. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0668.html)

[Nimrod's Son]

Darn, I'd just found this. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0668.html)
...Which also doesn't count, since it also shows a picture from the book.

The answer is:

"436 gp that I don't have to split with the party (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0104.html)." :smalltongue:

But we may as well go with KoboldRevenge's question.

[MoonCat]

In that case, we need a hint.

[KoboldRevenge]

It's on a piece of cloth!

[Kal Ironfresh]

I can do you one better, I can find a panel with the names of all of the books:
Order of the Stick. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0017.html) I mean whats got the biggest letters on the front? :smallbiggrin:

Probably doesn't count but any way find me a Blue X

The Resistance's Headquarters. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0524.html)

OQ

[petersohn]

Easy one: find two members of the OOTS being drunk (at different times/places).

[veti]

Easy one: find two members of the OOTS being drunk (at different times/places).

This certainly promises to spiral out of control. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0316.html)

1d3+1 sheets to the wind (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0744.html)

Find a reference to a god's internal organ.

[petersohn]

"Thor's Duodenum!" (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0397.html) There is also a "Thor's tainted liver!" somewhere.

OQ.

[Gwynfrid]

Who's the best member of the OOTS, according to another member ?
(I can think of one answer, but I suspect there are more than one).

[Toper]

Who's the best member of the OOTS, according to another member ?
(I can think of one answer, but I suspect there are more than one).
Belkar is. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0165.html)

Find me two halos. (Although there are probably three in the comic, since every single time I ask for two of something, somebody finds another one.)

[--Lime--]

I've found one...

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0481.html
(Same creature in 478 as well)

[cd4]

I've found one...

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0481.html
(Same creature in 478 as well)

and the other is http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0193.html

What is the cornerstone of the world economy?

[--Lime--]

You've got me foxed. I don't fully understand the question either, to be honest.

[MoonCat]

It's something an ootser said, I just can't remember where or what.

[ThePhantasm]

What is the cornerstone of the world economy?

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0357.html

Getting paid to kill things.

Find a basketball.

[Kal Ironfresh]

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0357.html

Getting paid to kill things.

Find a basketball.

Basketball must have been step 4. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0389.html)

OQ

[QDI]

Find two close strips that end with the exact same sentence (The ones I found are 1 strip away).

[MoonCat]

Find two close strips that end with the exact same sentence (The ones I found are 1 strip away).

Here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0779.html) and here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0202.html)

That was our current strip, so pretty simple.

OQ

[QDI]

Nope, reread the question: I said that the strips have to be close to each other (202 and 779 are not exactly "close").

I added that the ones I found were 1 strip away (like 665 and 667).

[MoonCat]

Nope, reread the question: I said that the strips have to be close to each other (202 and 779 are not exactly "close").

I added that the ones I found were 1 strip away (like 665 and 667).

Oh, sorry. :smallredface:

[Tomahawk]

128 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0128.html) and 130 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0130.html)

OQ

[--Lime--]

There are two female, draconic authorities mentioned in OOTS. Find them.

[ThePhantasm]

There are two female, draconic authorities mentioned in OOTS. Find them.

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0754.html

and

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0667.html

Not sure if those are the two you mean though. Guess I'll wait for confirmation.

[--Lime--]

Ooh, nice find. Not the one I was thinking of, though. It's probably referencing the same thing, however, so I'll allow it.

The one I had in mind was The Dragon Queen:
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0566.html

Your question, I guess!

[ThePhantasm]

Find a piece of paper with just one letter of the alphabet on it.

[petersohn]

Ooh, nice find. Not the one I was thinking of, though. It's probably referencing the same thing, however, so I'll allow it.

The one I had in mind was The Dragon Queen:
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0566.html

Your question, I guess!
The Dragon Queen that the Oracle mentions is Tiamat, the same that speaks on the phone. Anyway, you can see her here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0331.html).


The current question is:
"Find a piece of paper with just one letter of the alphabet on it."

[ThePhantasm]

Ok, it has almost been 24 hours, so I'll throw out a hint:

You'll find the paper in a window.

The current question, of course, still being: "Find a piece of paper with just one letter of the alphabet on it."

[ThePhantasm]

Another 24 hours has passed, meaning I succeeded in stumping all of you. Yay me! :smallbiggrin:

The answer is http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0504.html, in which you can find a piece of paper with the letter "i" on it . . . in a "window" nonetheless! :smalltongue:

And now. . . open question! :smallsmile:

[--Lime--]

Dammit! That's what I get for not thinking laterally enough. That was going to be my next question strip for a different question, but...

A nice easy one instead, then. Find me two references to Buggy Lou. (This could go wrong if I haven't checked carefully enough, but give me a little slack: there are two specific ones I have in mind)

[MoonCat]

Here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0171.html) and here. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0685.html)

OQ

[--Lime--]

Well done! Still OQ.

[QDI]

Find seven different bets.

Real bets with money involved...

EDIT: or defined as well, the one with Durkon is in my list even if there is no money involved.

[MoonCat]

Here's one. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0009.html)

And two. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0187.html)

Three. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0666.html)

[Timeless Error]

Here's 4. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0205.html) Ten character minimum.

[MoonCat]

Here's 4. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0205.html) Ten character minimum.

Not with real money.

[QDI]

I corrected my post, the one with Durkon is valid.

I was willing to avoid answers like the strip called "A sure bet".

[MoonCat]

I corrected my post, the one with Durkon is valid.

I was willing to avoid answers like the strip called "A sure bet".

Oh, sorry Timeless. :smallredface:

[QDI]

Don't be sorry, I am at fault here.

So 3 bets left to find after:

1 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0009.html)
2 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0187.html)
3 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0205.html)
4 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0666.html)

[Fion MacCumhail]

uhmm, if i may direct your attention to rule number 3:


3) Questions have to have an answer that is demonstrated by at least one, and no more than three, canon online strip. (No bonus material either online or in the books)

[QDI]

**Go hide in a corner**

So MoonCat found the answer (first 3 bets).

[MoonCat]

I say Timeless gets to give a question, mainly because I'm too lazy to think one up.

[Ron Miel]

And another 5 bets here
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0541.html

[MoonCat]

And another 5 bets here
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0541.html

:smallsigh: I feel idiotic. those never occurred to me, and I was racking my mind.

[Ron Miel]

Did you think of this one?
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0369.html

[xingbing1]

OQ?
Find me a pine tree.

[Tomahawk]

10th panel (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0526.html)

If correct then find me a flask.

[xingbing1]

You were right.

OQ. Find a black raven-like bird that might not be blackwing. (i.e. the instance I'm thinking of could be blackwing, could also not be blackwing, I'm not sure. Either way, it CANNOT definitely be blackwing, although it can be a bird that definitely isn't.)

What "seemed like an easy 'A'"?

Goat herding. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0141.html)

OQ

[Ron Miel]

Find someone standing on a precipice.

Not including Roy and the ogre here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0216.html).

[veti]

Depending on your definition of "precipice" - it seems (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0074.html) to happen (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0108.html) quite (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0180.html) a lot (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0524.html).

Find a reference to one of Aesop's Fables.

[Ron Miel]

Time for a hint?

Good lord, I had no idea it was so difficult.

Hint... It's in a strip title. There, I expect an answer within about 20 minutes now.

OQ

[--Lime--]

Nice easy one: find me two pieces of motherly advice.

[MoonCat]

Nice easy one: find me two pieces of motherly advice.

Here's one. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0681.html)

[--Lime--]

Ah. Erm... yes. That would be some.

I suppose I meant motherly advice brought up unsolicited. Instead of a direct question like "What did your mom tell you?" the character uses their mother's advice as a response where they didn't have to.

Naturally, that was my poor wording, so you can count it if you like, but there are two of those more specific examples out there. Find one or both as you wish. (EDIT: Or, of course, another one like the one you did. A question's a question.)

[--Lime--]

Hint time, I think. I didn't say they were characters (although one of them is)

[RootBreaker]

Does anything here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0600.html) count as advice?

"Just make sure to finish it before they raise you," maybe.

[Rogue Nine]

Is this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0141.html) one?

If so, find a green voice.

This Particular Potato salad is untouched by Thog. So this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0389.html) strip does not count. :smallwink:

This particular potato salad was part of a spread of food never enjoyed by the intended recipients.

Aww man, I was just going to say that!

Find something that looks like a Venn diagram (two overlapping circles).

If you mean the maniacal laughter I don't think that's white. It looks pink to me.

[Melee]

Hint time.

[Gwynfrid]

Melee, congratulations for stumping the forum. You win. But...you're well past the deadline to provide the answer. This makes it OQ.

Here goes, an easy one to restart :

Who's Lawful Stupid ?

[Melee]

I had no idea that it would be so difficult!

But the answer is in http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0049.html, last panel.

And yeah, sorry about missing the deadline.

[Gwynfrid]

Oh, you meant the MasterCard logo...

[cd4]

Who's Lawful Stupid ?

Well a case could be made for Miko being Lawful Stupid but I think you mean Roy according to Belkar or Elan (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0038.html)

What should you not do with Aquatic Trolls?

I'm guessing that you are referring to throwing them back into the water after you killed them.

This is an oddly worded question but I suppose this secret spice (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0476.html) or even this salt (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0279.html) could work.

If so:

I think the answer actually was when :belkar: said he was a "sexy shoeless god of cooking, too. (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0476.html)"

[Isolder74]

You'r good. lol

Also there is a bonus strip in "dungeon crawlin fools" that could have worked for the cooking. As well as the tropical bird BBQ strip.

I think making a vulture edible more then qualifies. Which is what I had in mind.

[petersohn]

What edible? That the MITD likes it doesn't mean that it is edible by human terms. But Belkar can cook it, for sure.

[ThePhantasm]

Also there is a bonus strip in "dungeon crawlin fools" that could have worked for the cooking.

True, but bonus strips aren't allowed as answers for the quiz. Only what you can find online. 'Tis the rules.

The current question is still: "find me a green monkey."

[nizer]

Hint: it's not a picture of a green monkey

I assume you are not referring to this:

Find Six beheaded people in one panel if true.

NEVER MIND!

[Ron Miel]

I don't think I can accept that as a right answer, so my question still stands.

OQ?

Normally in OOTS, when there are multiple panels showing a background, the background is just one big thing with the edges of panels splitting it up (meaning the background changes between panels e.g. here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0220.html), look at the first/second panels and the line of the hills). Find me some panels (all consecutive, in the same strip) where this isn't the case, they all have the same background.
