Order of the Stick Trivia XXII: Find Me An Original Question

[Mike Havran]

We all know of Elan breaking a world record, but there was this time when I, in fact, said something 150 times in a row. Find it!

Something about need to hurry.

Find two instances where a member of the OotS compliments Sabine.

[Metastachydium]

Find two instances where a member of the OotS compliments Sabine.

Well, Roy does like her piercings. Belkar also has his own expert opinion on her; does that one count?

[Caerulea]

Well, Roy does like her piercings. Belkar also has his own expert opinion on her; does that one count?

It certainly seems like it counts to me.

What is "For Mature Audiences"?

[yokyok]

A vile sourcebook.

Find a word repetition tag team: the same word, repeated five times, alternated between two people.

Hint: The team is made of two world record holders, Elan and Haley.

Oh look, my observation is already becoming common lore.

Just to be clear, are we looking for:

<Word> (and nothing else)
<Word> (and nothing else)
<Word> (and nothing else)
<Word> (and nothing else)
<Word> (and nothing else)

Possibly with Haley going first. Or is it less clear-cut than this?

with Haley going first.

That is correct! The scene in question must have been a real pain to write, though.

[enq]

You're kidding me. If the rules were laxer, I would have tried with two strips down the line. I was so close.

[Metastachydium]

You're kidding me. If the rules were laxer, I would have tried with two strips down the line. I was so close.

[Cue much Evil laughter.]

[enq]

Oh yeah? A plant with an alignment? Find me an alignment assessment of a whole bunch of probably-plant-derivatives.

Note that the probably-plant-derivatives suggests planties were harmed in the process. Take THAT!

[yokyok]

Mostly chaotic.

Find an alignment schism among plants.

[Mike Havran]

Find an alignment schism among plants.

Those pesky trees.

Find a stick that looks almost like the stick of the Order of the Stick, but almost certainly is not the stick of the Order of the Stick.

[enq]

Good enough stick?

(Let's not forget to note that a stick is a dismembered plantie)

[Mike Havran]

Good enough stick?

(Let's not forget to note that a stick is a dismembered plantie)

Not what I had in mind, but it certainly counts. OQ.

[enq]

shojo controversial ruler. prove shojo made at least one decision that would make thog happy.

[Coppercloud]

thog likes meatloaf surprise and Shojo narrowly escaped an assassination attempt that resulted from the Meat Loaf Day edict.

Find me three pictures of a dragon.

[yokyok]

1, 2, 3.

What are two new and exciting ways to disappoint?

[enq]

Putting on a gender changing belt and having your bravery be rewarded by being stuck with a catatonic gay dwarf.

Find me three OotS members with a black eye.

[Coppercloud]

1, 2, 3.

Oooh, the "dragon magazine" is a good one! The strip that I had in mind was one of Durkon's memories.

[Metastachydium]

Note that the probably-plant-derivatives suggests planties were harmed in the process. Take THAT!

I HATE you!

(Let's not forget to note that a stick is a dismembered plantie)

SO MUCH HATE!

Find me three OotS members with a black eye.

What do you mean? All of them have two black eyes.

(Otherwise, it's V, Roy and (more satisfyingly) a certain bard. Bards should get punched more often, if you catch my drift.)

[enq]

Seems like everyone but Haley has had one.

Find me the strip(s) that the angry little plantie above me is acting out with its hate vocalizations.

[Caerulea]

Find me the strip(s) that the angry little plantie above me is acting out with its hate vocalizations.

Brunch!

Find a (partially) visible human spine.

Bone golem Roy.


OQ.

[enq]

Find me Elan ascribing the same (entirely incorrect) quality to three different people, each on a different occasion.

Example:
You're an astronaut!

[Ruck]

I feel like the answer is "You're invisible!" but I can only remember this one.

Unless "I'm invisible!!" counts. Even then there's still one more.

[enq]

Unless "I'm invisible!!" counts. Even then there's still one more.

It wouldn't exactly be heavy rules lawyering to permit Elan himself being one of the three. But, since it has to be three different people, Elan doing it again won't count. Also, this is not my intended answer.

Spoiler: Hint

Show

The first time, I ascribe it to Roy. The second and third time, I still relate the quality to Roy, because-
-you are a bottomless pit of self-reference. (that strip is not part of the hint, I'm just on a roll)

[Ruck]

Well, now I'm more confused after reading the hint. So Elan makes the same comment directed to three different people, but also references Roy each time?

[Squire Doodad]

I think it's the "future psychic" thing, I think he says someone else is a future psychic just like Roy at some point?

[enq]

Well, now I'm more confused after reading the hint. So Elan makes the same comment directed to three different people, but also references Roy each time?

He doesn't reference Roy when he says it to Roy. For a second hint, I'll just confirm Doodad is entirely on the right track.

Spoiler: Last hint

Show

Spoiler: First time

Show

This time it's said to Roy, in a situation where he's really good at a guessing game.

Spoiler: Second time

Show

This time it's said to V, in a situation where V is out of spells but I have cast barely any.

Spoiler: Third time

Show

This time it's said to someone who apparently knows a certain woman will marry him.

[yokyok]

Roy, V, Tarquin.

Find three castings of True Seeing that don't show what the caster is looking for.

[enq]

One, two and three, proof two and three didn't find it?
