Most Exasperating Characters, as measured by facepalms caused*:
Belkar (10)
Elan (6)
Celia (5)
Durkon and the MitD (3)
Hinjo (2)
Roy, Eugene, Nale, Haley, V, Crystal, Girard, O-Chul, Xykon, Elven Insurgents, Thog, Tiamat, Rich Burlew, the Transport Security Administration and Miniature Compilation Guy (1)
Belkar is winning by a landslide, which should surprise no one.
* Study not controlled for screentime or differing forms of expressing exasperation- V and Redcloak especially tend to throw up their hands and start screaming at people instead of facepalming, and Miko seems to induce stabbing rather than facepalming in her listeners, so the sample is a bit biased.
Comics already searched:
100-300 for Roy
1-100, 300--672 for everyone
(Although we may have missed a few!)
To people adding to the count- please include the range of comics you looked through and for what, so we don't waste effort on redundant searches.
(For instance, "Here's Xykon in Comic Y and I looked for everyone in comics X through Z" or "Here's Roy in Comic Q and I looked only for Roy in P through R" or "Here's V in Comic J, no search"

Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
There none in 101-200 unless you count panel 8 of 153
Edit: When I cheeked it the thread on mentioned Roy's facepalms and those were the only one I was looking for so there could be facepalms by other characters in 101-200

Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Episode #676, the Sex Taint
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Panel 8 of 153 - may be a facepalm moment, but the gesture isn't there.
From 201-300, I give you:
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
291 isn't a facepalm, it's just Roy throwing up his hands in a way that happens to overlap with his face somewhat.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
I think 291 qualifies; looks to me as if one hand is face palming and the other is up in the air.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Two ethereal facepalms in a row!:
#530
#531
And another, for good measure.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
The facepalms don't show up that often. After this is done can we count the amount of times roy's said "-sigh-"?
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
or other peoples faceplams
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
So that's 7 + 1 in 291 that's debatable. Does he have more than Picard yet?

No, with one hand he is facepalming and with the other he is just reaching back. It qualifies in my opinion.

Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Damn, you guys were actually serious about starting this...
For other people's facepalms, already noted at TV Tropes are:
Hinjo in #413.
And Xykon doing two skull-phalanxes in #96 and #196 because of the MitD.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Roy - 10
Xykon - 2
Hinjo - 1
Xykon might be the most chilled out evil-overlord lich in the world, but even his bony face hits his bony palm somtimes...

It looks to me more like he's putting a hand to his temple in an attempt to protect his brain from the mental images.

Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
And in 95 we see a RC one in the last panel.
Also, if we're going to count every facepalm, we should probably change the thread title and update the first post.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt Facepalm Count
Please edit a compilation into the first post, I find this amusing! Would make a funny montage video.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
Okay, gang; compilation for everyone is up top.
ETA:
300-400 are now searched for everyone, giving us:
Roy, now up to 12:
Panel 9 of 337 (Nale)
Redcloak, now up to 2:
Panel 4 of 371 (MitD)
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
Roy:
80/panel 8 (Elan).
It's the only one left for anyone in 1-100, I belive.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
Haley - 539 - Celia and Belkar
Haley - 540 - Celia and Belkar
Haley - 568 - Belkar
V - 596 - Elan
Haley - 614 - Celia
Roy - bonus comic 665a - Elan
Lee - 667 - Tiamat
(I quickly went through Don't Split the Party, #485 to #672, but I may have missed some).
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
So that's 13 for Roy? Someone needs to make a compilations strip.

Hinjo @ Elan - Panel 5 of 572f
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
420/panel 12 ( belkar) for Roy.
And two for Haley 428 panel 7(Hinjo and Roy or only Hinjo?) and 475 panel 4( Belkar)
So now we have 15 for Roy and 6 for Haley.Also I checked 400-484 so now 400-672 is checked for everyone.
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
Haley - 714 - Girard
Redcloak - 694 - Elven insurgents
V (no gesture because can't move, but in this case that's a minor detail imho) - 708 - Blackwing
-
Re: The Great Roy Greenhilt & Everybody Else Facepalm Count
When Rich first drew OotS I'm sure he never imagined anything like this. (I wonder if he's facepalmed about this yet)
But, hey, personally? Veally Vundabar:smallbiggrin:
Also, Roy, #263 panel 7, thanks to Elan. Haven't had time to search any others.
