I'm afraid we abhor shooting people with cannons, especially those not wearing pointed helmets. We also have no cannons left.
So, welcome, and can find someone to revere you. And abhor.

Maybe update frequency is related to the volume of forum posts? This thread must never die!!!
Dracomax wrote:Kieryn wrote:Dracomax wrote:anybody noitice that the one true comic kind of resembles the chart of posting frequency?
It would be funny if Randall somehow linked the rate of posting of newpix to the rate of comments on this thread, such that the more people commented, the faster newpix would come.
if that were the case, during the madness time, each newpix would correlate roughly to 5 minutes of outsider temporal reckoning.

It's been done before, so it's possible.
I don't know how, but cut me some slack here. I'm a computer model from twelve years ago.

Now hang on! How could you reply so fast? That's an hour and a half round trip in communication. That antenna is working even better than expected after all.

No -- it just seems like it went fast from your perspective in the Time thread, due to the slowing of the NewPix.
It was a full hour-and-a-half reply to the Outsiders... In fact, this reply is from tomorrow.
