Sprite strips just got a vote in the bonus preference poll, so there are two sprite strips up as today’s voting bonuses. In the first one, Linton and Ebb discuss the Chef’s special. But “alternate version of a strip” also picked up another vote, putting it in the lead, so the second one is an alternate version of today’s strip, with the Alternate Universe rumormonger sprites. Thanks for voting!

Another look at the poll
Saturday, November 24th, 2007Happy Thanksgiving!
Thursday, November 22nd, 2007Happy Thanksgiving to all the readers in the US today! (And according to the logs, that’s most of you – but not all of you, so everyone else at least have a nice November 22nd!)
Today’s new bonuses are a sketch with the Chef’s Thanksgiving Special, and a bad translation of today’s strip that manages to mangle pretty much everything except the “Here we go again…” Thanks for voting!
Poll update and bonus
Tuesday, November 20th, 2007So far in the bonus preference poll on the forum, “alternate version of a strip” is ahead of both bad translations and sprite strips. But… What if they were also alternate versions of a strip? Vote for Station V3 at TopWebcomics to see a bad translation of a slightly alternate version of today’s strip, and at buzzComix to see the sprite version.
You can see how it might be hard to interpret the poll results! (And also that it might be just a bit early to even try, since there aren’t that many votes in…)
Two ideas in one day
Friday, November 16th, 2007I wound up with two slightly different ideas for today’s strip – they start out pretty much the same, but go off in different directions from there. I drew both of them, so one goes up as today’s strip, and the other becomes today’s first voting bonus (in color!) – vote for Station V3 at TopWebcomics to see that, and vote at buzzComix to see a bad translation of today’s strip (in black and white!) in which even the line “Morty, you’re fired” doesn’t quite make it through intact. Thanks for voting!
Book update
Wednesday, November 14th, 2007Today’s first bonus is a sprite strip in which two rumormongers discuss novel writing, and the second bonus is a sketch in which Morty tries writing a how-to book.
As for my own progress, I’ve got a couple hundred words written and a vague idea of where the story might go. Which is probably about as far as I got last time I tried the NaNoWriMo bit, but this time I got there by the middle of the month instead of the end, so maybe I’m getting somewhere… And as for the other book (the first collection of Station V3 strips), I’m putting the final bits together and checking to make sure all the pages look right.
