    Was it here?

    http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0696.html

    If so, then find me an instance where a spell affects a character's clothes + alignment.

    Now, the temptation is to go with Vaarsuvius and the Soul Splices, but that's not a spell, now is it? I think the actual answer is:
    A Wisdom score reserved for lemmings!

    If so, then who can eat all the Dwarves he wants?

    Show me a panel in which the world is being viewed through some sort of magnifying device (not just someone using such a device, but a panel actually showing what the view through the device is).

    Interestingly enough, that happens twice within the space of four strips.

    Now: what's a trade secret?

    does Profession (chef) count? I would guess not, as it is a skill and not a feat. How do you even have a Craft feat anyway?

    Craft Disturbing Mental Image, apparently. Although I'm not sure if that counts, as obviously no such feat exists.

    If I'm right, then tell me, how many livers do dwarves have in the OOTS universe?

    Two. Both of Durkon's grandfather's failed. And when he was talking with Malack, he does pluralize liver.

    What'd give you heartburn? Or well, not you, but someone.

    There are a lot of Craft feats. Rods, staves, wands, magic arms and armor...

    Well, apparently, An angry brain can give a Mind Flayer heartburn.

    Find me someone putting their entire hand in someone else's mouth.

    Does Xykon technically have his entire hand anymore? I mean, there's this lack of flesh...

    Would Haley or Vaarsuvius being eaten by a Black Dragon count? I guess they're not the ones putting their hand (and whole self) in, though.

    That's a bit of a twist in logic, there, Kish, on par with "You don't have hands, you have claws." Yes, as far as I'm concerned, Xykon has hands.

    Clarification: Both "someones" are human(oid). And yeah, Kish's odd logic is on the right track.

    Not quite sorry, I'm looking for the actual words 'good game' being used to describe an event.

    I'm not sure when I'll be around my computer next so I'll put the hint in now: It is said by Haley.

    Given the somewhat notorious tendency of fans to find references that aren't there, I'm not sure if this is a good question.

    Edit: Or is it a pun on blade barriers? If so, here.

    No, it's not what I thought of. The reference is fairly obvious though. It's actually taking out a famous sentence with a bit of alteration (such as the "Elan I am your father" from Star Wars).

    Edit: What pun on blade barriers were you thinking about? Anyway, references were outlawed once in the rules, but by common vote it was restored.

    I have never even heard of A Storm Of Swords, so Iwould say this is not a fair question.

    It is a book in the Song of Ice and Fire series. Popular with some people.

    Well, if the vote allowed it, it should be allowed. However, those of us who have not read the book will obviously sit out on this one. We will be back though.

    Or you can google "quotes storm of swords". The compilation I found didn't help me, though, and most of the snappy quotes seemed quite general, like "Every man must die, (insert name here). But first he must live." and "(insert name) fought valiantly, (name again) fought nobly, (name) fought bravely. And (name again) died."

    But I'll keep looking to see if anything rings a bell.
    There aren't really any exclusive or original ideas on TVTropes. That's kind of the point.

    Actually, there was questions about references that I didn't know about. So yes, it may not be entirely fair, that's why it was forbidden. But now it's allowed, so I asked it anyway. Not that it is a very obscure reference as I guess that there is a good probability that fantasy fans are familiar with this, and that most OOTS readers are fantasy fans.
    Guess what spell I cast before posting this message.
