1190: "Time"

[moody7277]

I hope there might be a "Making of Time" blag entry at some point in the near future.

[mindonner]

I am genuinely heartbroken about this.

[lgw]

Molpy sad.

[charlie_grumbles]

Well, for myself, at least, and I suspect most of you, I want to sincerely thank Master Randall for a wonderful four month journey. Be well, stay well, to you, and yours.

[BlitzGirl]

Five stages of grief...

Stage 1: Denial

[nerdsniped]

Quick! Someone post an unclosed parenthesis! (Then the OTT can never end, even if the OTC does. (Oh, wait, I think I just took care of it.)

[taixzo]

Molpy sad.

[Zorin_75]

Whut???

[Tatiana]

Five stages of grief...

Stage 1: Denial

Definitely! I'm still watching for more updates.

[maletero]

The frame has become a link to geekwagon.

So it has. This looks like it's really The End of Time. But why now? Why just shy of 3100 newpix? (Aubron has it at 3097).

I mean, it's a nice frame to end on, but man, it seemed like we went from finding The Forty to landing. . . somewhere pretty fast -- too fast compared to the rest of the comic. Dang it. I want more Time!

I think this is what they call the stage of denial.

[TimeLurker]

"THE END"

It was nice Waiting, ...ing, and RUNning with you all.
*waves*
Thanks for all the fun.

bye.

[BlitzGirl]

Well, I will say that I am not leaving my computer for the next newpix...oh...hour...

[maletero]

Oh. And alt-text changed. I guess that seals it.

[tinosoph]

OMR this is...NO!

[Valiant Cookie]

I hope there might be a "Making of Time" blag entry at some point in the near future.

I really hope so, I'd love to finally hear from GLR on his thoughts about Time, the OTT, and how the story evolved.

[taixzo]

Why geekwagon? Why not mscha's site instead? That's the One True Archive, after all! Why should GLR favor a site that uses semi-heretical meteor numbering??!!

[mindonner]

But the javascript! Is there still javascript??

[edo]

Prediction: there will be one more frame, exactlty the same as this one, except with the tooltip saying:You're still here?1 It's over! Go home. Go!

Prediction: there will be one more frame, and it will have time.png as the image.

[Tatiana]

Pizza and commiseration party at my house! Waaaaaah!

While we wait for the encore. (Yes, denialists welcome.)

[mscha]

Blindpost:

WTC???!?

If this really is the end, that's worse than Lost. I'll never forgive the GLR.

[Kit.]

So, 40ish Cueganites were too much for Randall to draw

[taixzo]

Well, I will say that I am not leaving my computer for the next newpix...oh...hour...

HERESY!!!

(Did Christianity stop after Jesus died? Why should we give up our religion even if it is THE END?)

[ggh]

Wow.
Maybe we are supposed to draw it now.

[lgw]

Blindpost:

WTC???!?

If this really is the end, that's worse than Lost. I'll never forgive the GLR.

We've moved from Denial to Anger, that's good progress for 2 NP.

And nothing's worse than Lost. Not even the Star Wars Christmas Special was worse than Lost.

[fatness]

To be forever referred to as the "Randall Roll".

[maletero]

But what an amazing thing this turned into. Over 3000 individual frames. Over 50k posts and 1.3 MILLION views here in the OTT. New cultures, vocabulary, etc. Many, many pictures of cute molpies/animals. Prophecies, popes, poems. So much good stuff.

What a ride. Thanks, Randall! And thanks to everyone here who made this fun.

[a_s_h_e_n]

He's got to say something else about this, like WHY

[BlitzGirl]

So, 40ish Cueganites were too much for Randall to draw

He could have killed them off! We wouldn't have minded! (much...)

[luke-ritchie]

I actually think that was the perfect ending to an incredible ride.

[lovepirate]

It really makes Cuegan's small sandcastle on the roof seem heartbreaking and bittersweet, doesn't it?

[taixzo]

But the javascript! Is there still javascript??

Yes, there is still javascript! Hooray! I continue to predict that

Spoiler:

Randall is just fucking with us, and it isn't really over.

[BlitzGirl]

Well, I will say that I am not leaving my computer for the next newpix...oh...hour...

HERESY!!!

(Did Christianity stop after Jesus died? Why should we give up our religion even if it is THE END?)

Well...Jesus came back.

[Angua]

I'm glad that he left it with an air of discovery for the new world.

[HereBeUnmappedBits]

Well, for myself, at least, and I suspect most of you, I want to sincerely thank Master Randall for a wonderful four month journey. Be well, stay well, to you, and yours.

This. I would have never guessed that a one frame per hour animation of a pair of stick-people would have ended up being one of my favorite stories and I wish to thank Mr Munroe* for the experience.

*Starts to cry*






*And everyone in the OTT.

[hunjoh]

The frame has become a link to geekwagon.

Well... That seems final.

Randall, thank you for an amazing experience.

[nickl140]

Hard to believe it's over

[TimeLurker]

I predict that Time will now just repeat a couple frames with the flag waving. The End will remain though, as it is in fact over.

Also, I really hope that there is a Blag about this. We want to know more GLR, please enlighten us.

[taixzo]

Well, I will say that I am not leaving my computer for the next newpix...oh...hour...

HERESY!!!

(Did Christianity stop after Jesus died? Why should we give up our religion even if it is THE END?)

Well...Jesus came back.

Hooray! Cuegan will return!

[Dr Frankenstein]

Well, whoa. All that time wast^H^H^H^Hspent reading the OTC, OTT and Wiki... will be missed.

*takes hat off, puts hand on heart*

[mscha]

(Still blind.)

The frame has become a link to geekwagon.

And I certainly am not going to forgive him for that.

heretic GLR
