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

[Ron Miel]

Tiamat's.

OQ.

We're at post#1411, nearly the limit. Any suggestions for the next thread title?

[b_jonas]

Find Belker wearing a hat.

If you mean Belkar, he's wearing a kobold hat in #63, a cook's hat in #476, but I seem to remember he's also wearing a large hat with a feather somewhere.

In #760, Tarquin says “But you can't make an omelette without ruthlessly crushing dozens of eggs beneath your steel boot and then publicly disemboweling the chickens that laid them as a warning to others”. A different character also says something about making omelettes. Who, and what do they say? (The trick is that they are using a different spelling rather than “omelette”.)

[Tarthalion]

Gnome Armorer: Well, it's like my father always used to say; You can't make an omelet without permanently deafening someone.

OQ

[thelivingmonkey]

Who sits on their hands?

[Quebbster]

Who sits on their hands?

Not Gannji - he has claws.

OQ.

[Ruck]

Not Gannji - he has claws.

OQ.

Since this was a valid answer but not what I was thinking of, I'll rephrase:

Fangs for the memories.


OQ

What joke did the demon roaches find to be a stretch?

[b_jonas]

Who sits on their hands?

Not Gannji - he has claws.

Durkon on the ship actually. #667 sixth panel.

[Ruck]

Durkon on the ship actually. #667 sixth panel.

He says "thumbs," not hands.

[thelivingmonkey]

Not Gannji was the answer I was looking for, carry on.

[Ruck]

Still the current question:

What joke did the demon roaches find to be a stretch?

[Kish]

Not Gannji was the answer I was looking for, carry on.

Actually, I'm pretty sure you mean not Enor.

[thelivingmonkey]

Actually, I'm pretty sure you mean not Enor.

My mistake, I mix those names up sometimes and figured it was whatever the person above me said lol

[Caerulea]

Still the current question:

What joke did the demon roaches find to be a stretch?

Who doesn't like a nice rack?

The new thread is coming soon. Naming suggestions would be good.

Find a cracked plate.

The new thread is coming soon. Naming suggestions would be good.

The title could mention topics that come up frequently in the thread. Two of these are sound effects and the demon roaches.

And these are just the ones from the last few threads where the post text explicitly mentions "roach". There may be ones where the answer is a demon roach but the post doesn't explicitly say that, and I won't try to make a complete list.

In conclusion, for the thread title I recommend
Order of the Stick Trivia 19: It's always the demon roaches
I hate roman numbers, so I'd prefer if we did not number the threads with them. We may also consider a variant referencing specifically the monopoly roach or the roaches with lightsabers. Update: or the angelic roach.

[jwhouk]

I vote: "Not a Nat20, but good enough!"

I like "It's always the demon roaches." Not quite as much, but it is still really good. I think we are going to use Roman Numerals, because all XVIII other threads used them. We could also vote on that I suppose. I would prefer to keep it consistent.


Updated Vote Tally:

Current Question:

[godsflunky]

I would go with "It's Always the Demon Roaches" this time, since we just did a dice joke, and saving a "Natural 20" joke for the actual XXth thread seems smart.

[Potatopeelerkin]

I vote for "It's always the demon roaches" too.

[Tarthalion]

I just want to add my vote for It's Always the Demon Roaches (with a premature vote for (a variant of) A Natural 20 for the one after it).

[Mad Humanist]

I'd prefer something more topical, like "Spending time with the kid with the puppet".

[b_jonas]

all XVIII other threads used them.

That reminds me. For the next thread, can we put a list of previous threads into one of the first posts? Here's a list of most of them, the first few still need to be added. I assume you have a list if you can confidently state something about all other threads, so I won't look further. (I started to look for them to find common themes like the demon roaches.) Update 2018-11-15: Never mind, I added the first four threads too, so the list should now be complete.

[Fyraltari]

I would go with "It's Always the Demon Roaches" this time, since we just did a dice joke, and saving a "Natural 20" joke for the actual XXth thread seems smart.

Making a "Natural 20" joke for the 20th thread is a bit obvious for my tastes.
I'd prefer something like this:

We did a numbers joke in this thread. I would prefer the big 2-0 to be named something like Order of the Stick Trivia XX: Dead as a doornail.
Y'know, since two X:s is how you tell someone is dead in the strip. :)

So, yes,

Fyraltari?

I support my own suggestion.
