Tybalt:
BIG NEWS!

I have gone back in the archives to comic 100 (approximately the time when QC became plot-based), and I counted the passage of time.  My conclusion...

47 days.  That's comic time from 100 - 1272.  An average of 25 comics a day.  Other interesting statistics... Marten and Dora have been dating for about 32 days.  Steve was last seen about 7 days ago.  The shortest day was Penelope's date (3 comics, 1255-1257)

Jeph actually did a pretty good job of keeping characters in costume.

in before "get a life".  It only took an hour.

Siibillam-Law:
47 days?
Honest?
Wow, that's really not a lot. I remember that in the first few the days just flew by and stuff, and then Jeph started getting more into story. Here's something off wikipedia (everyone's favourite reliable internet source!):
The internal chronology of the strip is somewhat ambiguous; on January 13, 2006, Jeph Jacques stated on a LiveJournal fan community that he has "never sat down and exactly tabulated," but he suspects the total amount of elapsed QC time at that point was "no more than six months."
It kinda puts everything into context though, when you think how long you've been reading it.
Oh, and Tybalt, that is one kur-azy avatar

Paiman:
That is, assuming that no days are skipped in comic time.  I could swear Jeph said once that several months had passed in QC time.

britMonster:
There are tons of threads on this in the archives. Someone sat down and actually wrote out when the days changed and such and how we knew if it was the next morning or if we didn't know and blah blah.

Is it cold in here?:
