Order of the Stick Trivia (Edge of) XVII: Just like the Blackwing dove...

[unbeliever536]

Blackwing attacks Scruffy, (top right)

Blackwing defends Scruffy.

That clue sort of gives away the game... (nice find )

[Elanasaurus]

Blackwing attacks Scruffy, (top right)

Blackwing defends Scruffy.

And your question?

[Ron Miel]

OQ, if it counts as correct.

[goto124]

Give every instance of a human(oid) in their birthday suit, or otherwise underdressed (e.g. in a bath towel).

[Ron Miel]

Rules say questions must be answerable in maximum 3 strips to link. Unless the total is 3 or fewer, it's an invalid question.

And to prove that there are only 3 would require linking every other strip, so it's still invalid.

[goto124]

Give 3 instances of birthday-suit male human(oid)s that are not early invisible Elan or just-Ressurected Roy.

[Lord Torath]

Blackwing attacks Scruffy, (top right)

Blackwing defends Scruffy.

Hah! I was actually thinking the opposite: Scruffy attacks Blackwing (lower left).

Scruffy defends Blackwing - check out that "mmrrrrrrwwrrrr!"

Give 3 instances of birthday-suit male human(oid)s that are not early invisible Elan or just-Resurrected Roy.

Here's a non-invisible Elan. Need two more....

V is naked here (although the "male" bit is still up in the air undetermined).

Do demons count? How about this lizardy guy? The Winged Buffalo Bison are naked, and seated at a table (well, one of them's seated), sort of implying they are humanoid...

Just caught the bath towel bit. How about a bathrobe? And here's another man in a bathrobe.

Find someone harming while healing.

[Ruck]

Blackwing attacks Scruffy, (top right)

Blackwing defends Scruffy.

Heh, this works the other way too, if you use the first comic as an example of Mr. Scruffy attacking Blackwing, and this one for Mr. Scruffy defending Blackwing.

Find someone harming while healing.

He also has potions.

OQ if correct.

[Grey_Wolf_c]

He also has potions.

OQ if correct.

I think he was referring more to Elan's healing of a Mechane individual while cutting them with a puppet holding a scalpel.

GW

[Lord Torath]

GW

That was the one. Nose-fur-atu didn't actually heal Roy in that strip.

So... Grey Wolf's question?

[Grey_Wolf_c]

That was the one. Nose-fur-atu didn't actually heal Roy in that strip.

So... Grey Wolf's question?

Sure. Find an elf holding a tankard.

GW

[Ron Miel]

It makes mice

OQ

[Ruck]

GW

Well, given that "Harm" and "Heal" are spells, I thought I would look for something that was as close as possible to the effect of "harming while healing."

This is why I try to lean on the side of being as specific as possible in how I word a question.

[Ruck]

It's been an OQ for too long. I think I might have asked this already, but I'm not sure and don't have time to look for another, so to keep things going:

Which two losses were diminishing, to whom and how?

[Ron Miel]

The tragic loss to the field of ass comedy diminishes us all.

[Ruck]

The tragic loss to the field of ass comedy diminishes us all.

That's one.

[Lord Torath]

Find someone harming while healing.

That's why I kept "healing" and "harming" uncapitalized. Plus, there was no actual healing taking place when Durkula cast the spell on Roy.

Which two losses were diminishing, to whom and how?

The tragic loss to the field of ass comedy diminishes us all.

The loss of his craftsmanship diminishes the goblin people.

Who uses a wooden staff with a blue dangly attached?

[Ron Miel]

Goblinoid psion


OQ

[unbeliever536]

Find me a mensch.

[Jasdoif]

Find me a mensch.

I kinda liked the Orchardeer, myself.

OQ.

[Rogan]

Well.. Okay. I'm going to slightly rephrase a question from before:

Find someone Harming by Healing.

[Jasdoif]

Find someone Harming by Healing.

You mean like how heal works like harm when cast on an undead creature?

OQ.

[Ron Miel]

Find someone calling for their mother.

[Lord Torath]

Can we get a hint? I thought it might have been Young Durkon, but I couldn't find him crying out for his mom anywhere. Malack cried out for Nergul, but not his mother.

[dragonscout]

Find someone calling for their mother.

Momma .. it's all so ... pretty.

If right: Who appreciates a well-worn cliché?

[Ron Miel]

I don't think that really counts. Young Durkon is speaking directly to his mother. The one I want is a scared being screaming for help from his mother, who isn't there.


Hint time, then. The being in question is not humanoid.

[Lord Torath]

Find someone calling for their mother.

It...it was horrible! (p2 panel 3).

Find a non-humanoid wielding a watering can.

[Lord Torath]

Time for a hint? Ok, let's see... It happens on a Splash Page (but obviously not this one!)

[Joerg]

The mechanical arm here? If so, OQ.

[nbLurkerAbove]

Find someone calling for their mother.

Still OQ, but I found another one in panel 9, though I suppose that doesn't match the hint
