Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
Since his speech was not cut off mid-word, but at the end of the word, I don't think that counts.
Guess what spell I cast before posting this message.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
Actually, no. While that is an interesting observation, it does not answer the question asked. The question asks for a word that, when cut off, would sound the same spoken as if the word itself were complete. Roy completing Yikyik's word for him does not qualify.
Also, lightsabers.Last edited by rgrekejin; 2012-06-21 at 03:39 PM.

Oh! Apologies, I've been away and forgotten to check in. Yes, you are all due a hint: The sentence is cut off due to the death of the character speaking it.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
The second one doesn't count, as his rapier isn't on-screen there.
Hint: The second one's loss takes place during the current story arc.

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
In the first place, he lost his sword, and everything else, when Nale changed places with him and took all his stuff.
In the second place, he clearly has a sword, and loses it, in panel 2..

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
He uses that rapier again in the very next strip (and loses it again, if you count dropping it as he did in both strips as "losing it"). In fact, that's also what happens within the Tarquin fight - he is disarmed, and drops it - so unless that does actually count, it strikes me that the example with him fighting Tarquin shouldn't be counted either....

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
rgrekejin is close enough, though I was originally referring to #714.
In hindsight, I probably should have added a note that my question didn't nessecarily require the rapier's destruction, and that it had to be on-panel.Last edited by Emperordaniel; 2012-06-26 at 01:53 PM.

Is it OQ? If so...

Re: OOTS Quiz part XIV
How closely "like" is "Gollum-like"? It's not exact, but "Thog hate you, stupid metal bars" is pretty similar to "Smeagol hate nasty elf bread"... Name-in-third-person, expression of hate, negative adjective, descriptive adjective, object starting with 'b'...
It might fall under the "answers the question well enough to count" category, but I'm guessing it wasn't what you're going for. OQ if you want to accept it.At least now I can get back to enjoying my glass of elven wine in peace and quiet, without being called on to intervene in someone else's problems.
