Wait a minute, I thought that in KOL you get the message "you accquire", not "You see here". Intresting.

The laptop disappears in a    
puff of logic.

KOL?Is it "Kingdom OnLine"?
#2	Anonymous	Sat, 21 Mar 2015 16:54:49
Kingdom Of Loathing, presumably http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Loathing But why the extra-bright .ae##?

Your comics are awful. Quirky references + no punchline isn't funny. Also 7 days between new comics is too long. Paxed did 4 days.

Pitiful. Quite pitiful. ~$ wtf is KOL >> Gee, I don't know what KOL means... IBMgraphics (looks quite ugly on my *nix devices), very strange and odd jokes, nonsencial errors... It's sad. I have to put 'poor'. Last edited: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 18:38:40

@yhelothar: LOK may be obscure but the punchline here isn't too bad. And if the cartoons are too infrequent, submit more: neither Paxed nor anybody else can publish more cartoons each year than are submitted.

REST IN PEACE: SourceForge.net 7.9 million Au Killed by: The Qailise Gavenmengte 1994-2014 ----------------------- Yes,it is completely dead. Now Amulets of VPN and Proxy won't work anymore. and the Wizard of Beauriokrazy is unbeatable now. We have lost this plane's greatest source for free new softwares and their source.

@ #5: Well, as I stated at last comic March 14, I submitted a strip two months ago that is scheduled as of today more than three months in the future. There may be some other reason for those infrequent cartoons, besides few submissions...

#6: Can you leave Qaila? There's a place not far from there that shares much of the same language and culture (Palace Museum, even) but safely outside the GFW and free of Communist Dicktotalship.

REP #8: Do you mean Taiwan?I do not think I am rich enough to live there. I posted #6 to remind those comic submitters: Try avoiding some sensitive words.You can use another expression,or intensionally misspell those words like that. Last edited: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 11:12:51

#9: Yes, I meant the "Renegade Province". "to love there": typo for "to live there" or "to move there"? In either case, not everybody in Taiwan is rich - and I'm guessing (given you have the ability and the discretionary time to contribute to this forum) that you'd be able to make a reasonable middle-class living in Taiwan if you choose to contribute to the economy of a democracy rather than a militaristic dicktotalship.

That word is "live".And beware,you have said 3 dangerous words. I want this comic to survive longer. It has suffered from ERR_CONN_RESETs several times. Last edited: Fri, 27 Mar 2015 11:14:48
