Re: Order of the Stick: November II
I have the same problem as before. A black area is occluding the lower panels of #246, and #247 is only loading the top three panels. I can read #248 just fine, so there is little reason to believe it is a server issue. It's been like this for days. Should I be putting this up on the board forum, or what?

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
This one was easy. :)
I have a program that looks at the patterns of letters in a word, and it basically said that "ytoseegfkoi" can only be three words that are in my word list:
preassigned
transsexual
tyrannizers
Based on context, I chose "transsexual" and once it replaced those letters, the rest just kinda popped out at me. :)

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
This crypto thing is getting a bit itchy. My lack of initiative is starting to kick in...
Anyways, looks like 2 members of the team are going to be in a bind for the forseeable future. Unless someone starts crackin' on Roy, that is. Everyone's taking their sweet time on him.
Electroshock therapy MAY help get Haley out of her kink. Personally, I think it'd be funny just to see V conjure a low-level lightning bolt to knock her out of it.An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded.

Ooh, maybe since this is a mental problem: they will go searching for a Psionic manifestor to cure her?

Actually it is bad news for the lass.
And good news for fans of cryptograms.Wish is a 0-level spell, which\'s material component is a 100-dollar note given to your DM under the table.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
Heh. And Roy, for some reason, still feels the need to wear the mop head/wig. A nice toutch.

After I did that program, I found that I was much much better at them even without my program. Now I usually figure them out on my own in a minute or two - sometimes without even having a pencil available. I find them a little too easy most of the time.
Friday's strip made me think about my program again and I decided the program would work much better if I made some tweaks and if I made it interactive by having it pick a word but also allow me to make my own try if I didn't think its idea was good. Now it works really well - especially once I pick the first substitution to get it started.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
Oh lord, Roy's getting PMS already, change him back quick! :D
Google query for the Giant's posts, for those of us who think they're way more interesting than yet another speculation thread but don't have time to read every thread on the forum to find one he's posting in.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
You know, for some reason, when I first read the strip, I read V's speech bubble before looking at the whole panel. And thus, before I realized V was talking about Haley, I thought she was talking about Roy.... :) "What do you mean no cure?!" Heh. :)
I thought Roy's feeling bad over Haley was cute. Haley's (translated) comment wasn't very nice. I realize she's under a lot of stress, but the girl's got quite a mean streak, doesn't she?

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
She was equally nasty about Roy's transformation before she lost her language. Yes, she does have a mean streak--and, unlike Roy and Vaarsuvius (and hey, even Belkar!) we've never seen her feel really guilty about anything.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
Roy's sudden mood swings remind me of that episode of Futurama where Bender gets a robot sex-change in order to win a bunch of gold metals in the robot olympics.
Hail, Hail, Robonia! A land I didn't make up!
Anyway, Bender starts having mood swings and the Professor says something to the effect of "You fool! You've waited too long to turn back into a manbot!" Crazy stuff.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
As to the comments about how mean Haley's being, I would like to suggest this: what if she has totally forgotten about the belt by now? I mean, with the amount of loot she's seen in her day, I wouldn't expect her to be focusing on the loot they deemed so unimportant that they left it behind. Therefore, seeing as Bards specialize in illusions, she could be under the impression that when Elan offered to magicly disguise Roy, Roy changed genders completely on his own accord. This could explain her 'Transsexual' comment.

Re: Order of the Stick: November II
Anyone else notice that the first speech bubble in strip #249 (Elan's one and only) doesn't line up nicely like all the others? Very interesting change of style Giant (well, I thought so...).
