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

    (sings the song, sounds like she's singing,
    ooh, baby, ooh, ooh.
    )

    Welcome to the OOTS trivia thread, part 17. It's one of my favorite pastimes on the forum. If you haven't stopped in before, please, read the rules, join us, and have fun!

    Part 16 can be found here.

    Rules

    1) The first player to answer a question correctly, asks the next one.

    2) If that player doesn't have a question immediately in mind, then state "Open Question" ("OQ") and let someone else ask.

    3) Questions have to have an answer that is demonstrated by at least one, and no more than three, canon online strip. (No bonus material either online or in the books)

    4) No counting questions with more than 3 parts. For example: how many times has Roy said "the".

    5) If the answer given is not the answer expected, but still technically answers the question, allow it. You can rephrase and ask your question again later.

    6) There's a difference between rephrasing - finding a different, more precise way to word the question so it has a smaller number of possible answers - and just simply rewriting to rule out the last answer. Over and over again. Don't do the latter.

    7) If an answer is given that in no way is correct, then players can call attention to the fact. At that point, there may be 2 questions occurring at the same time. The 1st question that was incorrectly answered is the valid question. The second question may be answered, but for no prize (aka asking the next question).

    8) If your response is ninja'd, that is if someone beats you with the correct answer, please edit your post stating, "ninja'd, please answer above question".

    9) After 24 hours without an answer, please provide a hint. After an additional 24 hours pass, please provide the answer and take pride that you have stumped us all.

    10) Recognize that this is a game. It is supposed to be quick and fun. If a question seems to go beyond the rules, assume that the author is not familiar with the rules, and point them out. If the author affirms that the question is allowable within the rules, then continue with the game. If the question turns out to be not allowable, it becomes an open question. Groan and move on.

    11) Questions along the lines of "when was the first time X happened/was mentioned" are not allowed because to prove that they never happened before, one would have to link to every strip before it, which is unreasonable and would break the no-more-than-three-strips rule.

    I answered the last question of the previous thread, so I'll kick this one off with one I think is fairly easily.

    What is NOT good for a cat's digestion?

    In this case, it was the island that was random, not the question. It's a reference to what Lien says in that comic.

    The Cyclopean Isles, traditionally believed to be where Polyphemus lived, are just off Sicily.

    Touché. I realized all this time I was thinking of the Colossus and not Cyclops.

    Second panel, background, far right looks like one to me.

    Grabbing the OQ.

    What does Belkar not have in his hair? (obviously "an airplane" or so is wrong, even though he likely does not have that in his hair either, but it needs to be something mentioned in the comic)

    Lol, that reminds me of a line from the pilot of Party Down when Ron gets mad at Roman for slacking off when he's supposed to be DJing.

    "Roman, what am I not hearing?"
    "I don't know... a squid? There are other options..."

    Clue time:
    The food in question is being prepared, and the misspelling is phonetically implied.
