pwhodges:
The post count titles were in place before I was admin. I've changed just three or four. Coprophage is not one I thought up.  Dickfish is the top level; they are all listed in the wiki, which I think has them up to date.

Epic trolling. I love it!

Troll on Mr Jacques, troll on... :-D


--- Quote from: Madmartigan on 15 Mar 2013, 07:03 ---Still doesn't change the fact I think they make out far better as great friends.  Let's face it, it would appear Marten is the first outside source she's told about her past.  I think it's better for them both to have a strong relationship on a purely platonic basis than screwing everything up with romance...

....

The only thing I'd say is Claire is Faye without any sexual tension or romantic attraction.

I agree. They're comfortable together because they don't have that sexual tension - we've seen how awkward Claire gets around guys she finds attractive. I also agree with whoever said they were getting a Hanners and Sven vibe from this comic - it reminded me of that too.

My prediction: (probably wrong)

Marten wakes up to find they are sort of snuggling together. While he's still half asleep - "whuh? buh? what?" - Claire talks in her sleep something about Henry (or possibly Steve) "Oh Henry you so fine... you so fine you blow my mind..."

Not those exact words obviously.

--- Quote from: ZoeB on 16 Mar 2013, 09:37 ---Would QC be QC if Marten got into a stable "and they all lived happily ever after" situation? Would QC be able to carry on with its emotional dramas if the main character essentially bowed out from the emotional melodrama? I think it would, but it would be a catastrophic (as in sudden discontinuity) change of direction.

I would like to see Marten actually win first prize, after all the poor guy's been through over the years. For that matter, I'd like to see all the characters eventually win big. Hanners healed, Marigold out of her shell... but unless new characters are introduced, that would be the end of QC.

The outcome would depend on exactly how well Jephzibah could write it. I have faith in his abilities, and based on his previous track record, I'd have to say he could probably write whatever he pleased and make it still just as amazing/loveable/funny as always. I personally agree that it would be nice if the main cast could all have resolutions to their respective issues.. but then, as you noted, I do believe it would drastically change the general feel of the comic.

Also, in most situations, even with the best possible match for a person (character..) relationship wise, there could/would be some type of drama still involved, I'm sure. I'm not personally aware of any couple that's absolutely "perfect" in that there's absolutely no disagreement and both are perfectly content with everything.. although my experience is limited to just that: my experience. This in and of itself, regardless of whom Martin eventually pairs with, could still lead to hilarity, sadness, both, or anything in between.

As for the other characters, I love their quirks, and I think that even if they were able to work out those issues to a more level mental/emotional balance, those quirks would still be present in at least a diminished fashion of some sort (And, at this point in comic time, I do believe that is somewhat the case).

I thought Dora and Martin were just the most cutest and fitting couple, and then alla sudden, explosions of nuclear proportion mixed with tears and yelling "WHY JEPH WHY!?!?!". But thaaaat's QC for ya!

(Actually, since then I've made it a two-stage lookup, to get over a bug when the lines in the file listing the images get too long - it still fits in two lines, though.)

I see, thanks. I may never try it, but the process is interesting.
