Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Maybe. I guess I think of the alignment spectrum as less of a continuum from evil to good with neutral in the middle than a polyhedron or some weird shape with good and evil, and law and chaos on opposite ends. As has been pointed out elsewhere, lawful good and lawful evil characters have almost as much in common as lawful good and chaotic good. That's why chaotic neutral made sense to me ... but I've been wrong before.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Yep -- before I realized that it was a joke about one of those home-renovations shows, I thought of the scene in Back To School where the Rodney Dangerfield character points out to the economics professor that he omitted a bunch of costs involved in building a factory ("grease" for the zoning board, the union bosses, etc).

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Just too funny.
I wonder if, or when, Belkar uses his Rage ability, if his skin will turn grey? (Yes, the Hulk joke probably only applies to but I'd find it funny if was applied to the ability.)Nod. Get treat.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Actually, I found this particular line to be a great spoof of TLC's "Trading Spaces." A team of decorators, 2 days and $2K to redecorate your best friend's room.
Once I had made the connection, in an episode with plenty of great lines, this has almost become my favorite for it's latent subtlety.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
If you mean a tetrahedron with Law/Chaos/Evil/Good on the vertices, and the edges as the "secondary" alignments (with True Neutral in the centre), then that would give you the same as the regular aligment grid, except with two new secondaries: Evil Good and Chaotic Lawful. Which I suppose would keep Bor happy.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Superb!
Thog is wonderful - Rich'll never be able to do anything to him without SERIOUS flak from the readers...
Now we have to see if Pompey tries to stop them.
By the way, if Elan wants one of his girl illusions to work for a change, I can't think of a better target than the desperate-dater Pompey...Caractacus

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Underfunded office workers not caring about mayhem or bizarre stories makes sense but these are guards, whose job is to be suspicious of criminals, what they might get up to and confront them. They're probably dumb enough to fall for Elan's fast talking about vapourising flu but they would wonder where the decorators are that are creating the mess. They'd believe that managers divert money for manager creature comforts but they would complain about money being spent on prisoners and not them. Underfunded, public administrators, including policemen, complain about where money is spent all the time.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
1: It's a comic. It's funnier this way.
2: You forget how much Charisma, and therefore Bluff skill, Elan has.
3: This is a society were even USING magic on a prisoner is an illegal search and seizure. They obviously pride themselves on civil rights and humane treatment of criminals.Last edited by TigerHunter; 2006-12-10 at 05:22 PM.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
: prison changed thog.
: We were only in there 40 minutes.
: prison changed thog quickly.
Anyone notice anything strange about that dialog (apart from the fact it's the funniest exchange in the history of the OotS, if not the world)? Normally it's Elan saying something stupid and Roy providing the voice of reason. But this time... Elan is the voice of reason?!? HAS THE WHOLE WORLD GONE MAD?!?!?!

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
If Thog got that mad over punching a clown, just imagine what he would have been like if Elan claimed the bars had kicked a puppy!

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Being "civilized" (what constitutes that anyway?) is not a question of whether you are free-spirited or a law-abiding traditionalist.
But the new strip rocks! Can't wait to see how they got to Azure City and found out Haley's location in such a short time frame.
vince baffled by thog's simple solutions to complex problems.

Re: OOTS #387 - The Discussion Thread
Normally, I'd agree on that except for the line
"He died from the poor conditions"
"Another one?"
doesn't sound too humane to me...
But this synches it; Elan needs to somehow end up with the linear guild and Nale needs to stay with the order. Nale's funnier being incompetent in the order, and Elan is comedy gold with thog!
Heh, but then there'd be no , so nahh.
but on the guards:
D&D guards are the epitemy of stupidity. You can hide behind a stool in your cell and they'll think you've escaped. These guys could be bluffed into thinking that Cthulu ruptured up out of the ground; they're dumber than rocks.
Elan should of easily gotten that one.
