@Rival Comics - Looking forward to it :) Roughly how long was the archive binge? And did it make sense? I'm always wondering if we managed to make sense, or if it relied on my explanations in the Author's Notes / Comments to really understand it :D
Or is it the way that makes Beth feel guilty about the whole thing, and also annoyed because of the whole cheating thing, and then there's that Sylene is probably in the same boat in reverse?
Either way, it seemed fairly obvious to me from comments made earlier, but I archive binged. If it's another "aha!" that I've missed...well I'm just too dumb to see it.
She probably blames Beth for the whole affair.
On a side-note, I think the readers have been assuming Sylene was enlightened by Beth for, like, since you mentioned Beth only enlightened two people. I think Beth said that before we even knew Sylene, too. :P
(Also, I thought I was the only one here who read +EV, heh.)
And I like how you drew her as a One. XD It turned out well!
P.S. In regard to June's comment in the last thread regarding her art, stop calling your art bad! I <3 it and your comic and I am a picky woman!
Sincerely, Jamming [END]
Yep...quotes prove that we already knew. Or, leastways, we had the capability to do so.
I had suspected that Sylene harboured a little resentment, but it's good to see that reinforced. Personally, I'd be thanking whoever enlightened me - Mr. McWither has a point.
The hair looks cool this way - but I'd suspect it's more work, eh? You could go either way with it.
I also think that One Sylene is pretty hilarious, and highly detailed. I especially like the drool...in a train-wreck kind of way.
also i really like the new hair style :)
My first thought on Sylene as a one was, she looked like someone had cleaned her up. No scars, no open wounds, no tears in her clothing. I just assumed that was Sylene's visualization and as such inaccurate. That also explained the hair colour.
my time to 1year (cretion) (the first time i was totlly caught up)was a total of about 4 hours. of course i was multitasking like crazy.
i like sylene's new hait. also i like "1 sylene" too i wanna see her s a 2. that'd be funny.
@Antimony-120 - Well, Beth did make Sylene and Chad zombies, they were her two kills. But that was sort of hinted at before by Beth.
No, I think I was a little too subtle in the aha moment ;) That's okay though, if the readers aren't seeing it yet, then it counts as foreshadowing ;D
@Brain eater - We're not going to randomly quit, but there is the potential that someday we might quit. If we do, I guarantee that I will make an author's note letting people know that we've decided to quit, and then make a gigantic blog entry that will explain the loose ends. Or let you know that I'm writing it as a novel ;D
@MatthewJA - She certainly does.
@ranger_brian_new - Yeah, we did know about Beth enlightening the two of them, I think.
As for the forum, it's temporarily down until I can figure out how to get it to work properly despite the site redirecting http://greymeat.com here. I got sick of the slow, dead, mess that the GoDaddy hosted one was, and I disliked sending people to a page that essentially said as much.
I posted on the forum trying to see if I could get some help to make the forum work anyways, but my thread kind of got hijacked, so ... what are you going to do, right? I'll work on trying to figure out how to get the forum sorted... Do you go via the link here or a bookmark?
@dr pepper - Sylene's supposed to be a character that is hard to pin down whether you want to root for her or not. I personally adore her. She's my second favourite character after R.Z., but he has the fact that he's based on my son working for him :)
@Kristy - Thanks :) I liked her as a One too, even though she was Too Sexy for a One. :)
@greengirl77 - Ouch, I hope you feel better soon! Did you tear muscles trying to catch yourself, or hurt it on impact with the tub?
As for June, she does better art when she has more time to devote to it. If we only ever updated once every two weeks, you'd have art that would look great all the time... So I think that she gets frustrated because she knows she can do better, but she has to build up her skills so she can be that good while maintaining twice (or more) a week.
@Jamming - lol :) Who would have thought telegraph jokes could be so awesome? :) And there is a video of the situation, but it's not inside Sylene's house, so it requires some logical leaps of faith on the part of the viewer.
@Jrade - Just because it is true doesn't mean that she can't still feel resentment. We actually debated on the drool, but we opted that because it's Sylene's mental imagery, it can look like just about anything :)
@ranger_brian_new - It wouldn't be, no. But that doesn't mean Sylene wants to imagine herself completely unattractive :)
@redder - Great, thank you for letting me know ;) I love your icon :D
@PixieSingsBass - Exactly right. Much like the story being told in 300 is a tale to inspire men to bravery without necessarily focusing on the truth and nothing but the truth, it's filtered through the mind of the person.
@Lunaroki - Given Sylene's tendencies, it seemed like an upgrade she'd go for :) She probably wouldn't have been able to afford it except that Beth's been guilted into bankrolling her TOGM supply most of the time, allowing her to save her credits up ;)
@model S - Poor abused Sylene :) I appreciate the time that readers have to take in order to catch up with the story.. I might make a synopsis at some point so people can start the story later on...
Where's the picture from? Did you draw it?
did skrael do yours by any chance? it looks good
redder: It's actually Kristy's, of Wake the Sleepers.
I liked it so much, I use it all over the place now, even on my Facebook and such.
@ranger_brian_new - I think you can link to it directly, but I'm not sure how it'll work...
I'll make it clearer in the next one, I think. ;) And no, pretty sure it was already common knowledge that Robert started the whole thing. Cuz he's a jerk.
Better your shoulder than your head though, that's for sure.
I've been wondering - Why does Phantom have an eye patch if he can replace an eye? Or maybe his group just can't get new parts, or just won't bother with it?
The great story combined with the amazing artwork really has me hooked! I'll definately be checking back and keeping up with this one!
@Mr Priest - The Phantom basically only fixes what he has to, and doesn't really bother with the rest. He also saves his limited resources for his people, rather than himself.
@StreetBoyWill - We're actually trying to get TOGM listed as an official, acceptable excuse for late homework. Thusfar we've only got one University to accept it, but I'm starting to wonder if they are legitimate. They keep trying to get me to send them money to free a Prince in Egypt, after which I can be reimbursed... ;)
eyepatches are AWSOME
especialy when stapled directly into the head
