considdering it was all over the tv right when todd+selkie returned from their little trip the answer is a definite YES! he even tried to distract andy from it, so he also knows or at least assumes that its got to do with the colony.
Dave, you know that those two dudes have names.
They have ‘history’ both working with each other, and independently when they go home to their families, moms, dads, s.o., other, pets. So I’m saying, like the nameless clerk in the WoolCo, you might need them later. Best to name them now.
Not trying to tell you how to do the comic. I just remember some of your comments about Ms. Flowers. She turned out to be very important in the story of Selkie and the School. (Snowball fight) . Just sayin’.
When I ran a tabletop campaign for my friends, I got a bit annoyed when they didn’t name their characters “properly” (or fast enough).
They got back at me later, when I didn’t name my character fast enough, and his name went down in the save files as something like Pro Tagonist… only worse. I can’t recall what it was exactly, but it was annoying, and I totally deserved it.
I played with a guy who did the same shit. Named my half orc Spike and I was told I had to get a “proper” name.
I just didn’t play with him. That kind of shitty attitude sets a precedent for what kind of DM they were going to be and I didn’t want to deal with it.
DnD supports all kinds of playstyles so you can treat is as a hack and slash dungeon crawler or roleplay and try stay true to the settings lore – just need to make sure the group and dm are all on the same page.
I dunno, I think it could be one of those hilarious things if one (or both) of them end up becoming a regular character who never gets a chance to tell anyone their name. Any time it would come up in dialogue, an interruption occurs or a jump-cut to another scene.
I really don’t like the notion that someone would posit a connection between two very transient weird phenomena based solely on their color, noticed a week apart. How long did he see her eyes for?
People make connections based on all kinds of minor things. It’s not that odd that a weirdness getting associated with a certain color would make everything which is that color be suspect. Especially if the next thing is equally weird.
Not just color, but also glowing. How hard would it to be connecting 2 green glowing things together? (Although my first guess might be a ‘real’-life teenage mutant ninja turtle esqe thing, but I’m a huge dork who loved that show when I was young
People always draw perfect connections when it’s inconvenient for the protagonists. But if there’s an opportunity for a comical MISunderstanding that gets everyone in trouble, you know that’s happening without delay.
And there we go.
Finally someone makes that connection.
Those dudes aren’t dumb. What a surprise. :/
Had Todd actually seen the beam yet? Is thistaking place literaly after their colony trip or have some days/weeks passed?

I’m blaming you (and to a lesser extent myself) if one of them turns out to be Les Nayme.

Who says Spike woulnd’t be a proper name? Hell, if it worked for Buffy and Angel, why not for DnD?
I agree. Back in the 80s, when the world was young and I played D&D, I ran a Ranger. Named Kemo Sabe.
My DM said, “Cool name”.

A bounce house employee’s name is always ‘Excuse me, I think someone threw up over there.’ They have to change it when they take the job.
The acronym for that, EMITSTUOT, pretty easily morphs into Emmett Stuart.
Aaand the problem is quietly boiling in the background. Ugh )=
BUT HEY PRESENTS
I thought she was sky diving off of the climbing wall for a while. That scared me…

Did you notice the color similarity? It can’t be a coincidence — she’s a Green Lantern!

*insert X-Men Cyclops joke here*
Yep, I think the masquerade just got a big ol’ crack in it.

Correlation is not causation gentlemen. DX
No, but in this case, they correctly drew the conclusion that the two incidents have a connection.
I understand. In death, a bounce house employee has a name.
W.W.T.D.D.?
Ah but who’s to say the Dawnbringer didn’t have then rent some of his ‘people’ to be tortured by being a bounce house employee?
I’m okay with the server being down yesterday and no new comic. But I’m surprised there was no mention of it.
Dave mentioned it on his FaceBook feed.
