Things to Do in the Monkey Island World When You're Dead: RotPG "Did You Try?" List

edited November 2010 in Tales of Monkey Island
There were many pieces of hidden dialogue, reactions and laughs that could be found by trying some random things throughout the episode, so here they are! This is another excuse to replay a wonderful episode!

Did you try:

- Using a note with the grog machine after getting the bottle of grog and the change
- Using the notes with the tip jar (in your inventory)
- Using your sword with the actual swordmaster (instead of Morgan)
- Asking Galeb "What did you say your name was again?" multiple times
- Giving some money to the treasure hunter
- Using the tip jar with the dog (in your inventory)
- Using LeChuck's sock with Galeb before you lure the dog to the Crossroads centre
- Giving Galeb back his dog
- Using the dog with Morgan
- Using the money with the thief
- Using the tip jar with the thief
- Using the chest with Galeb
- Clicking on the pile of scrolls while the dog is still in there
- Looking at Guybrush's gravestone multiple times
- Looking at every gravestone
- Using the anchor with the skull and crossbones
- Using the sock with the tiny pyrite parrots
- Clicking on the main mast of LeChuck's ship the first time that you are on board
- Talking to demon LeChuck and demon Elaine multiple times while they are planning their wedding
- Actually using your shred of life with the main rip while in the Land of the Dead
- Looking at the dead tree twice
- Going through the rip multiple times as a ghost
- Continually eating gum off the jail windowsill
- Continually clicking on the dead seagull after the Voodoo Lady has spoken to you through it
- Exiting Club 41 as a ghost and as a zombie
- Examining every item in your inventory while being beaten up on LeChuck's ship
- Waiting until the end of the credits to see if there was a very nice cutscene at the end to scratch your head over (if you didn't already do this one, shame on you)
- Waiting after the mentioned cutscene to find out about a special
announcement

Okay, anyone found any other nice little bonuses within the episode?

    A lot of great lines, especially one by Elaine
    who sounds like she's on the verge of tears when she says it
    .

    Did you:

    -Board the Ferry to the Crossroads for the first time, with AND without carrying a "whole Eight" in your pocket?
    -Make sure to enter Club 41 as a ghost BEFORE leaping back into your body?
    -Keep talking to Anemone about her relationship with Winslow?

    - Talking to Bugeye multiple times while in jail to hear each of Guybrush's remarks

    Are you referring to this one or a "Did You Try?" list preceding this one?

    Yeah just don't do anything (instead of using the
    shred
    of
    life
    ), he wriggles out.


    My favorite Did You Try has not yet been found.

    Any clues?

    Click the "banang rum" in the Club 41 a few times (6 or 7, don't remember, but less that 10)
  • edited December 2009
    Look at the bone in your inventory.

    (Nice MI2-reference)

    Ok, now THAT is the coolest "Did you try"-moment of the game :D And now I finally know where the bongo.ogg-file came from.

    In the final battle with le chuck did you try jumping into the cannon without asking Elaine to light it first?

    Hahahaha I went back to try it and see what it does, and I am SO glad I did:D

    - When doing the Diet of the Senses puzzle, did you ask the Treasure Hunter if he has any clues about the Whisper?

    If by try you mean do it by accident, then yes I did.

    And if you do it twice, LeChuck'll make a disgusting comment to Elaine.
  • edited December 2009
    Before the final fight, when Guybrush falls through the opening of the crossroads and there is the huuuge dialogue, after LeChuck sticks the Cutlass into the mast and he teases you by saying to pick it up...
    If you click on the mast, instead of the Cutlass, Guybrush will say "It's the mast", and then we'll see a very short reaction from LeChuck and Elaine that cracks me up everytime!! Do it, just for the fun of it.

    Yes well it was by accident that I discovered it too as I was being punched around the ship by le chuck.:D

    don't think these have been said:
    did you
    - look in the chest near the dead seagull as a ghost?
    - get kicked out of your zombie body many times (by bug eye and the judge, and due to time)
    - get the murray references (don't remember where, was a skull... the sign at the treasure hunt maybe)
    - keep digging for pyrite birds
    - release your dog at the treasure hunt and then search for what seems like forever before finding said dog at the crossroads, the last place you could look ;)

    did you try...
    using the hook on the sail while on the top of the mainmast on Lechuck's ship?

    I'm still sore that they sticky this thread and not the original "Did You Try" list for RotPG...

    Edit: @Will below: Hah. I was just being a prat. I created one but it was rather silly and got lost in the "WHARR ISS CHAPTURR FAYVE IT'S 2 AM PST ALRUDDY LULZZZ" threads. :D No hard feelings or anything to be honest. My thread was actually created as one of the first of that flood of threads with a photoshopped download page trying to make people think that I had downloaded it already...coz that's what I do. :)

    My forum browsing generally comes in 5 minute spurts (as that's generally all I have time for between bouts of productivity). So generally I only get a few threads down the list before I get back to work. So what I read tends to be limited to whatever is on top and looks interesting at the time I check. Sometimes we miss things.

    Did you speak to every skeleton member of LeChuck's crew?

    By the way, leaving Club 41 as a ghost is, like, my favorite. Hooray for the extremes of keeping a game area already several times visited locked in this episode. :D

    Yeah, at least when Elaine's become LeChuck's bride and you're on your way to Cutlass of Kaflu just to notice you can't touch it. There's four of those, and GB says different things about each.

    Remembered this when people were talking about Murray references in this topic. ;)

    I loled, too, but only after the shock about the finding that demons aren't actually asexual was gone.

    - look in the chest near the dead seagull as a ghost?

    How come Guybrush can 'go' through the chest but can't 'go' through Club 41's door?

    I would call it "nintendo logic", if this game would be made by Nintendo. :o
