    Default Order of the Stick Trivia XVIII: Yay! Three sixes!

    This is the 18th section of the Order of the Stick Trivia thread (we won't get any more sections until we reach an ASI). Here is the 17th iteration.

    For any newcomers, here are the rules:
    Quote Originally Posted by 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.
    There was no unanswered question at the end of the last thread, so find me someone who is (trying to) make a dramatic entrance (exact words "making a dramatic entrance" are needed).
    Stop using good evidence and logic that makes sense to refute points, that's my job
    Lots of people seem to use blue for sarcasm, I decided I should too

    "We are all here right now, and definitely not somewhere else." and "Rock on, self buddy!" Both illusions courtesy of Elan.

    What three monsters has Elan "summoned" via illusion? (I can think of four, off-hand)

    Edit: I confess, this was my favorite proposed title: "Order of the Stick Trivia XVIII: I don't have to listen to you, I'm an adult now, Mom!"

    You are both right!! And Belkar was also summoned as an illusion by Eugene Greenhilt in Azure City!

    I can only think of two now!

    I suppose I should clarify that I mean non-humanoid monsters. While halflings, orcs, and half-orcs all show up somewhere in the Monstrous Manual, they are not what I had in mind.

    Huh. I forgot about the teletubbie/aberration. I was thinking Little Big Bird and Celestial Tree Sloth Attack

    Which means the next question is: Open!

    Yup - next question is yours.

    EDIT- if OQ means anyone can ask another question - ignore the above.

    It's a little difficult to verify, but I believe the answer is Daimyo Kubota.

    OQ (for now) if correct.

    Not Enor. The character literally says "I don't get it." Enor got the pun but didn't appreciate it.

    So the question is back to:
