Order of the Stick Trivia XX: Naturally

**Ron Miel** · 2019-10-21, 10:29 PM (ISO 8601)

Find someone regretting the loss of a shield.

**Ron Miel** · 2019-10-22, 10:14 PM (ISO 8601)

Hint : the shield is not made of wood or metal.

**flat_footed** · 2019-10-22, 10:24 PM (ISO 8601)

My first thought was a meat shield of some sort, just haven't had the time to dig through the comics.

Probably a caster losing their bodyguard....

The closest thing I could find is this; I suppose OQ if it's correct.

**Ron Miel** · 2019-10-22, 11:26 PM (ISO 8601)

Gonna disallow that ... but you're nearly there.

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-23, 01:25 AM (ISO 8601)

It is Haley

Show me two different steps where donuts get mentioned.

Interesting findings:
[LIST][*]Comics 527 and 482 are trivia anathema. They're the only comics from before BRitF that have been linked less than three times. Looking at them, it makes sense; I can't think of any trivia questions about them.

You see that as a problem, I see it as a challenge.

There you go. That's three for #527. I'll post one for #482 later.

Did you by chance mean two different strips here? Or are we looking for individual steps in multi-step plans involving donuts? I mean, this one involves iron rations, which are to donuts as a hippopotamus is to Arthur Dent's bathrobe - i.e. there's absolutely no relation between them.

**Ron Miel** · 2019-10-23, 03:53 PM (ISO 8601)

There's a plate of donuts here, but nobody mentions them in dialogue. Does the count?

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-23, 04:24 PM (ISO 8601)

Yes, it was strips... My bad, my autocorrect...

**b_jonas** · 2019-10-23, 04:57 PM (ISO 8601)

One strip that mentions donuts is about the Cliffport police department (CCPD). #360, third panel, chief of the police mentions donuts as the stereotypical food consumed by policemen. I don't know what the other is though. #33 only mentions cakes and pies.

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-23, 11:48 PM (ISO 8601)

B_jonas found the first

**Ron Miel** · 2019-10-24, 02:00 AM (ISO 8601)

Does mine count?

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-24, 02:54 AM (ISO 8601)

Normally, I'd say yes, but I did specify that the donuts are mentioned, not shown...
So no.

Hint time: the donuts are only mentioned, because someone mistook something else for donuts

Are you thinking about why the MitD ate the Scrabble tiles?

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-24, 07:29 AM (ISO 8601)

Yes, that was the second strip I had in mind

If there is no question, show me four different panels referencing the location of one ball.

**Lord Torath** · 2019-10-24, 07:49 AM (ISO 8601)

I was sure it was Xykon's Symbol of Insanity, but there are only two panels tracing the ball's movement. So.... four panels in no more than three comics showing the location of a single ball...

Actually, I think that's right. It's visible in panels 1, 7, 8, and the last one.

Well hey, look at that! Er.. uh.. I mean, yeah, that's what I meant! Yes, I saw the ball in all four panels all along!

Okay, this will probably be pretty easy:

Lien says she's not interested in Hinjo and already has a boyfriend (panel 7). Find her pursuing Hinjo's junk anyway.

Was I supposed to say I had a question in mind? Oh well.

Padding the score for #482 eh? I assume that's Lien and Razor in the water in panel 1 as they disembarked Before departure.

Guilty as charged.

Your question.

It is generally expected that a post containing an answer (or in this case, the final answer) also stats the next question, or at least says "OQ" signaling an open question.

**b_jonas** · 2019-10-25, 01:51 AM (ISO 8601)

We should change that rule though starting from the next thread. Make OQ the default, have people explicitly ask to retain the question.

Find someone unintentionally dropping a bag of holding.

I mean... it kinda is? If theres the right answer and no question, it defaults to OQ.

HALEY!

Find the entire Order of the Stick and all 3 surviving paladins of Azure City in 1 panel.

**Jannoire** · 2019-10-25, 07:52 AM (ISO 8601)

Here you go

OQ

Of course, at the time of that comic (671), there are FOUR ~~lights~~ surviving members of the Sapphire Guard. Find proof that the fourth was still alive at the time.

Bonus points if you can find a panel with the OotS and the three surviving paladins of the Sapphire Gaurd at a time they are the last three surviving paladins. (Note. I do not know if such a comic exists).

He dies about 150 strips later.

Bonus question: In #672 O-Chul and Lien leave Hinjo for their quest in the north, while the Order leaves for the Western Continent, and neither have been back since (no I can't quite a strip for that, because it would require all of them:P ). So there's no way for all of them to be together after 827

OQ

**flat_footed** · 2019-10-25, 01:07 PM (ISO 8601)

I'll nab the OQ.

Find me someone succeeding at their listen check, where it's identified as a listen check in a later comic.

Spoiler: Hint

Show

Elan is the one who makes the Listen check.
