As a wrap-up for the year, it's a "favorite moment" poll!

DSL · « **Reply #1 on:** 29 Dec 2013, 06:59 »

Innerestin' an' thought-provokin' set of options, Mr. Houk. I made my pick based on potential for future developments (and my own opinion that my pick led to or affected some of the other developments you listed).

Fourth Impact

LookingIn · « **Reply #3 on:** 29 Dec 2013, 14:43 »

You folks deserve a pat on the back for the great polls each week.

I submit a favorite moment of the year: a lot less Pintsize! The little man had little impact on stories, I thought he was featured much less than most years if not the least featured of all years...and it was still a great year for stories and comedy and drama.

HauntingPoem · « **Reply #4 on:** 29 Dec 2013, 20:02 »

I will admit that 2407 came as a close second for me!

Method of Madness · « **Reply #5 on:** 29 Dec 2013, 20:28 »

Hooray! Also hooray at Dale not fucking it up and just giving a relieved "Yeah!"

LookingIn · « **Reply #6 on:** 29 Dec 2013, 20:33 »

Poor girl, she went out there and took a big chance and still had so little confidence in herself that she couldn't just take it for what it was and closed up on herself...

That comic was good for a hearty laugh.

Marigold is showing real courage.

That depends on whether or not you funded the Kickstarter

Go Marigold.
Now all you need to do is give your friend Momo some more apologies, and thank her for helping to heal you.
I think... while she'll appreciate the first a lot on a personal level, the second will make her heart sing.

OK, so she doesn't actually have an organ that pumps blood, and those organs don't actually vocalise, but those are trivialities. Her heart will sing.

She might have a MIDI-function in her chest.

Jeph time travel confirmed.

techkid · « **Reply #19 on:** 30 Dec 2013, 03:26 »

While there wasn't an "All of the above" option (damn you Jeph, QC and the brilliance that all that entails...), I went with the Deathmøle option. Pretty much because it was a HUGE leap into the unknown for Jeph, and subsequently blowing all his expectations away (and on a selfish level, I was a backer, so I get some stuff from it as well).

On comic: Oh Marigold, now she knows how an Internal Server Error feels like.

She'd have MP3 support, at least. With 256kbps bitrate. Her heart would sing with full orchestral backing.

That's pretty much how I asked out most girls in high school. I wouldn't recommend it.

Looks like Faye was right. Asking a boy out is the most harrowing task ever visited upon a lass.

Well done, Marigold.

... Y'know, before this comic the possibility of Marigold herself being a secret AI that Momo is looking after had not occurred to me.

At least it wasn't a 1201 Alarm.

As much as a band geek I am that I wanted to select Marten's 8-string I think the new format was a shock to me: it was like the entire cast moved to a new monochromatic neighborhood.

That's it, you two crazy kids. Just jump right in.

Oh dear, is that your idea of a ships sailing. So violent.

In my mind, there are two sail vessels. Other is fifie, a working boat with dark and quite wide hull with enormous sails to give sufficient thrust for pulling trawls. How ever, a tacking requires the effort of a dozen men. Behind it coasts a gunter rigged sharpie: a lean, versatile craft suitable to many tasks,forgiving in maneuvering -until the boom touches the water that is.

This is your classic working boat horoscope for today.

You should've just put "development" for both and let people interpret how they wished

What are the odds Marigold's face will swell up like Schwarzenegger in the Martian Atmosphere? (And it'd be a nice little callback to when Marten and Dora started dating)

This is cute, but I'm wondering if Dora's going to get a horrible hand rash from the roses next time she uses that cupboard.
