Order of the Stick Trivia XVIII: Yay! Three sixes!

[Personification]

This is the 18th section of the Order of the Stick Trivia thread (we won't get any more sections until we reach an ASI). Here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?505950-Order-of-the-Stick-Trivia-(Edge-of)-XVII-Just-like-the-Blackwing-dove) is the 17th iteration.

For any newcomers, here are the rules:


1) The first player to answer a question correctly, asks the next one.

2) If that player doesn't have a question immediately in mind, then state "Open Question" ("OQ") and let someone else ask.

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) There's a difference between rephrasing - finding a different, more precise way to word the question so it has a smaller number of possible answers - and just simply rewriting to rule out the last answer. Over and over again. Don't do the latter.

7) 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).

8) 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".

9) 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.

10) 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.

11) Questions along the lines of "when was the first time X happened/was mentioned" are not allowed because to prove that they never happened before, one would have to link to every strip before it, which is unreasonable and would break the no-more-than-three-strips rule.

There was no unanswered question at the end of the last thread, so find me someone who is (trying to) make a dramatic entrance (exact words "making a dramatic entrance" are needed).

You are both right!! And Belkar was also summoned as an illusion by Eugene Greenhilt in Azure City!

I can only think of two now!

[Lord Torath]

What three monsters has Elan "summoned" via illusion? (I can think of four, off-hand)

I can only think of two now!I suppose I should clarify that I mean non-humanoid monsters. While halflings (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0596.html), orcs (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0552.html), and half-orcs (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0066.html) all show up somewhere in the Monstrous Manual (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0640.html), they are not what I had in mind.

[Jasdoif]

What three monsters has Elan "summoned" via illusion?Lion (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0478.html) and chimera (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0019.html) and teletubby (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0397.html) (Oh my). It is my belief that teletubbies are abberations.

It is my belief that teletubbies are abberations.Huh. I forgot about the teletubbie/aberration. I was thinking Little Big Bird (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0674.html) and Celestial Tree Sloth (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0805.html) Attack

Which means the next question is: Open!

Not Enor. The character literally says "I don't get it." Enor got the pun but didn't appreciate it.

So the question is back to:

No again. It's an actual rabbit, not a D&D monster. Or, well, I guess rabbits have stats somewhere, but you know what I mean.

[Lord Torath]

A similar question came up before, where the objective was to find a bunny. I hazarded a guess that Rabbit would be insulted to be called a bunny. The actual answer, though, needs more gears (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0964.html).

Who could be released if they could just fight the right target?

Well, I'm not a native English speaker. I found in the dictionary that Rabbit might be 'someone who's not good at sports.'


"6.
British Informal. a person who is poor at sports, especially golf, tennis, or cricket."

I really didn't understand this well that well.

[Lord Torath]

Who could be released if they could just fight the right target?Okay, I think it's clue time. The person who could do the releasing generally only gets verbally attacked by the one who could be released.

Time for anther hint? A certain albino was also present at the time.

What is the price needed to get Belkar to be quiet for two minutes?

Actually the strip is correct, but the exactly quote I was thinking about is not that. Because neither Hailey nor Belkar are (declared) follower of a religion, they aren't changing their religion... However, the strip is right :smallwink:

Current question:
What is the price needed to get Belkar to be quiet for two minutes?Does a moment (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0470.html) count as two minutes? Then the price is 22 hobgoblin lives. If so, open question. If not, I'll keep looking. (I'm leaning toward the latter.)

Tehnically, 22 goblin lives at a rate 0f one life per round is roughly two minutes (off by 12 seconds).

[bc56]

Tehnically, 22 goblin lives at a rate 0f one life per round is roughly two minutes (off by 12 seconds).

The character asking him to be quiet in the strip I was thinking of literally says"two minutes"

And in your strip, Belkar is asked to stay there, not be quiet.

Tehnically, 22 goblin lives at a rate 0f one life per round is roughly two minutes (off by 12 seconds).
I very much doubt Haley is only killing one of them a round.

[Lord Torath]

The character asking him to be quiet in the strip I was thinking of literally says"two minutes"

And in your strip, Belkar is asked to stay there, not be quiet.WEll, she tells Belkar to "stay there", but she renders him (mostly) speechless in the last panel (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0470.html) by her sheer awesomeness. Fair point, though.

Two minutes... Two minutes.... Roy pleads with Haley to stop with the cracks for ONE! MINUTE! (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0237.html) But that's obviously neither Belkar nor two minutes...

Even as someone more familiar with Futurama than that, but less than a true diehard, I don't remember any specific references I've seen, or even where to look for them. I'm not prepared to comb over the entire comic to answer the question.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to NOT be a Futurama reference, and instead a reference to something also referenced in Futurama. Or an outright coincidence.

No, it's a magic item that doesn't fall in any other category ("This is a catch-all category for anything that doesn’t fall into the other groups.

I always thought it was a reference to "goodyear" commercial blimps rather than a reference to a movie we're not even sure Rich saw...

... a reference to a movie we're not even sure Rich saw...

Spaceballs? Of course only The Giant can say if he saw it or not, but I believe betting he saw it would be a pretty easy bet...

That said, the "Badyear blimp" joke in spaceballs is, by itself, a joke about the the Goodyear blimps, but I've got your point: maybe Rich wasn't thinking "Spaceball!" when he did the joke.

[Kish]

He's familiar enough with it to have made a reference (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showsinglepost.php?p=8006917&postcount=137) to it at least once.
