You know, this is increadable, I can almost catch up on the entire plot line just by reading the index above, although, it is not nearly as interesting. :) ;) :D :-* :P ;D

Man. The extras post STILL isn't up.

BTW, the main point of the index was to find your favorite comic or somesuch. The sentences are to remind you what the comic was about, so that, for example, if you wanted to pick out the polearm sketch comic, you could browse, I would find the small town life subset, look down, and find 136.

You probably knew all this already, but I just do this sometimes.

As far as I know, it's OK to post this even though the thread has fallen to page 4.

I don't think ten days counts as a month and a half, but I'm only saying this to check. Please feel free to warn/punish me as needed if I'm doing something wrong.

this is probably going to sound like the crazed ravings of an ungrateful monkey, considering how much work has been put into this index and how great it is, but.....

has anyone done an index including dates the strips were posted on? I just came across a situation where I was curious about when a certain strip was posted and I couldn't remember.

Clearly I will live perfectly unharmed if the answer is no.

The best we can do is give estimates (to the month), but exact dates and times would be much work and probably have holes near the begining. Something to work on when I have nothing better to do at work, I guess . . . that and the FAQ.

Oh, and Lilly, isn't it time for an update?

151 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0151.html). Start of the bandit storyline. An ambush by some second level "kids." Haley gives some good advice.
152 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0152.html). The kid's back up steps in to help, Elan is kidnapped. ("Hey, where'd the sun go?")
153 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0153.html). Haley gets most of the rest of the team to help her go rescue Elan. Roy thinks adventuring with Elan is more of an obstacle than it's worth.

167 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0167.html). Roy faces off with the older bandit and is forced to once more use the bag of tricks, which backfires.
168 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0168.html). The battle continues, and the sorceress proves too much for our heroes, but not enough to beat her dad again
169 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0169.html). The new bandit king deals with the aftermath, including freeing Durkon to "protect" him from the dangerous trees. Durkon becomes the bandit king.

171 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0171.html). The group debates what to do with the former bandit leaders. Roy decides to leave them to deal with each other, to Belkar's delight. ("Your approval fills me with shame.")
172 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0172.html). Elan asks why Roy did not immediately come to his rescue, and Haley covers. ("If you want to live to see your next Age Category, drop it.")

176 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0176.html). Fighting the green hag (or "possibly an annis"), Belkar uses a halfling rage jumping attack to achieve "Flawless Victory!" (although V disagrees)

177-189. Lizardy and Dragony sittin' in a tree: (Summaries by azrianni (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/member.php?u=18059))
177 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0177.html). The group debates whether the purple lizard is actually Vaarsuvius, and Belkar fails to learn anything by examining lizard anatomy ("Hey, it's making little lizardy noises!")
178 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0178.html). V the lizard reluctantly prepares the only non-somantic spells available, and Haley summons V's familiar, sending the lizard fleeing
179 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0179.html). Roy attempts to come clean with Belkar about there not being any giants guarding the starmetal, but it doesn't go as planned. ("I'm sorry, Roy, I just don't trust you enough to believe that you lied.")
180 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0180.html). The group climbs down into the starmetal meteor pit, aided by Elan's bard song and a timely (but overlooked) Feather Fall from V
181 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0181.html). OotS encounters magical darkness, and when she reaches the edge of it, Haley finds a black dragon waiting ("Walk, walk, walk through the slightly damp corridor!")
182 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0182.html). The dragon is easily prevailing in the fight when V discovers it can understand lizard speech. V's attempts to use "suggestion" repeatedly get interrupted by a dragon bite.
183 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0183.html). Haley's shot saves V from being dragon lunch, so she becomes the next victim. V's suggestion finally works. ("Vomit. Now. Aim for the halfling.")
184 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0184.html). After her close encounter with death, Haley decides to admit to Elan how she feels...until Durkon casts a healing spell. ("I'm in love with ukeleles.")
185 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0185.html). Held prisoner by the dragon, Elan tries to play "I spy" with Roy. ("Wow, Roy, you're not just psychic--you're a FUTURE psychic!")
186 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0186.html). Durkon dispels the spell on V, who finds the dragon no longer accepts commands. V uses Disintegrate instead, to impressive effect. ("Fascinating. I cannot help but notice that the disintegrated remains of a dragon are indistinguishable from those of a human, or a halfling, or a dwarf.")
187 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0187.html). Haley stumbles on an underwater passage that leads to the dragon's hoard. ("No talk! Ruining the moment.")
188 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0188.html). With Haley "indisposed," V and Durkon explain where the starmetal is. Roy goes to collect it, and is predictably disappointed.
189 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0189.html). Mysterious Cloaked Avenger finds the former bandit leaders and frees them, offering to partner with them to get OotS. Bandit leaders prove less cooperative, and suffer the consequences. ("The tragedy here is that this could have been avoided if I had just made a Gather Information check instead.")

190-197. Xykon interlude and overarching plot line: (Summaries by azrianni (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/member.php?u=18059))
190 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0190.html). Redcloak and Xykon the skull need to get through the Perilous Path of Crushing Doom. Redcloak decides to let the Hobgoblins scout ahead. ("*Sniff* My little Redcloak is all grown up.")
191 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0191.html). Xykon explains that the tower they are heading for will need to be cleared of monsters, which frightens the Thing in the Shadows. Xykon reassures him they will prevail. ("Hey, look. I just regenerated a finger. Guess which one.")
192 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0192.html). As predicted, the bad guys find a monster guarding the tower, but they figure out how the hobgoblins can solve the problem for them, with a little help from crackers. ("Sacrificing minions: is there any problem it CAN'T solve?")
193 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0193.html). Xykon is confronted by one of the "forces of Light" who asks him to change his ways. Instead, he changes her. ("Flying zombies! I can't believe I never thought of it before!")
194 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0194.html). The bad guys continue to clear out the tower, with the Thing in the Shadows scaring off the light archons by begging to be lit up. (With side Green Lantern reference)
195 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0195.html). Xykon and Redcloak recover the book that is the key to their overarching plotline--a diary of a halfling who knew someone important. ("Please! In the grand scheme of things, this book makes the "Tome of Clear Thoughts" look like "Dianetics.")
196 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0196.html). Xykon explains that the diary contains (in code) the location of the gates that are key to taking over the world, maybe the multiverse. ("What 'gate' do you guys keep talking about?")
197 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0197.html). Xykon and Redcloak discover exactly how many hobgoblins we're talking about. ("I think I just had an evilgasm.")

198-200. The return of blue guy... gal: (Summaries by azrianni (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/member.php?u=18059) [198-199] and Gorbash Kazdar (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/member.php?u=12355) [200])

203 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0203.html). More of the story is uncovered to SGG, queries of Elan's twin's crimes answered, queries of crimes against existance lead to the valley of Roy being really pissed... ("ELAN!!!!")
204 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0204.html). Roy and the rest of the party get into an argument about their next course of action, with V, Haley and belkar are on the side of attacking the samurai, who is now known as Miko. The word Bone is now used as a verb

212 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0212.html). Everyone seems okay with this next mission. Except for V. ("The proper term is 'smite evil' not 'bump uglies'")
213 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0213.html). Belkar vs. Miko: Who gets to track the ogres back to the camp? ("No, Belkar, I don't think it's physically possible for me to feel stupid after talking to you.")

224 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0224.html). The crew decides to stop and rest at an inn, since they've been up all night fightning ogres. ("Well I suspose if you wanted to give into gluttony and corruption.")
225 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0225.html). Checking into the hotel. Haley can't get fans and grapes.
226 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0226.html). Roy is rather confused by a "Who's on first" sketch, and becomes the king of Nowhere. "Someplace else is a democracy"
227 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0227.html). Roy enjoys the well earned fruits of karma and being mistaken for royality. Miko makes a mattress tag joke.
228 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0228.html). Belkar hires a lawyer and gets a restraining order against Miko's detect evil. ("The plaintiff rests!")
229 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0229.html). The assassins plot, the 4th wall comes tumbling down. ("I should have taken the job at Nodwick")
