Re: Re: Twitter tweets (currently: Tweet from February 15)
Essentially, we're changing the thread's subtitle. Which, yes, happens with several threads on these boards. The main title tells you what the thread is generally for, the subtitle gives you more current information about what's going on there now.
Again, I don't see why this is a big deal.
Also: We've spent nearly as much time talking about how to use this thread and where it's okay to post stuff as we have discussing the actual topic at hand.

Re: Re: Twitter tweets (currently: Tweet from February 15)
Quite; for a start, the fact that Thunt has not posted a single thing on Twitter for three days now - which for someone who has been having health issues lately and usually posts about a half dozen times a day even *when* ill is a little bit concerning......WearsHats wrote:Also: We've spent nearly as much time talking about how to use this thread and where it's okay to post stuff as we have discussing the actual topic at hand.
Hope he is okay.

Indeed. It made me queasy....
I hope he and his family is fine.

Re: Re: Twitter tweets (currently: Tweet from February 15)
I would expect he's been working himself to exhaustion, leaving himself tired, headachy, and miserable. If anything catastrophic had happened, I think he'd have told us. Update is due, and he spent a lot of time shading the latest page. But, sure, update the thread topic if you want.

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
His twitter feed does seem to slow down when he's working hard on a page. Since he knows this is a big moment, he's promised us that this will be mind-blowing, and he's already a few days late, I expect that he's just working really hard. It'll start again once this page is finished.
Thanks to Arch Lich Burns for the avatar, and Mnementh for the mustache.

And he started much earlier than the file names of the first comics suggest, as in that time he updated 5 times a week, since he had a massive stock beforehand, when he finally decided to publish.
Again, thank you,
THunt!

Hello everybody. I'm new here and I want to ask one question.
In which reality comic update is TODAY? Because it's obviously being updated for one week.

Yes, it's been "today" for a while; the counter is broken, forgotten or otherwise un-editable at the moment. Thunt seems to be incommunicado.
To preempt:
It'll happen when it happens; it's free after all; he's doing his best; blood splatter takes forever to draw; he's been in hospital recently; the next few pages will be legendary; and he beats himself up about late updates more than any reader ever could.

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
So you skipped right over the discussion of "What if something happened and he died?" to whine about no update? I'm sure he will update as soon as the page is done, assuming that his cabin didn't burn down or something.vagabond wrote:Hello everybody. I'm new here and I want to ask one question.

Forget his wacom!
What about his high-definition originals?
Is the backup okay?
(And what about his dog/kids/wife/himself?)
BTW: I would guess a communication shutdown/dropout.
Danielles twitter is also very quiet.... (last tweet: 9 Februari)

NAY! Ye forgot that the undying and unconditional love for the comic should prevent any from even mentally trying to criticize Thunt!

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
I am not a fan of this comic.
Yes I started reading it and yes I am curious how will this story develop. But i check it only now and then and I try not to read this forum and all of your posts in which you discuss IME, mechanics, logic and all other issues. So when I see that update should be tomorrow, then I expect to find it updated.
There is no topic, or I just could not find one which stands for "goblins cancelled" and please do not make me read all your posts to find out what is going on.
So
If thunt is hurt - i feel sorry for him.
And no offence. But seriously a lot of you guys are insane lunatic nerds who live in that goblins reality #154
Yours sincerly
Piotr from across the ocean.

No prob, Piotr.
We sometimes forget, that those not coming to the forum regularly might not be so fluent in English.
Your post came across rather harsh, and we will put that down to "non-native speaker".
Thank you for your understanding.
And thank you for going through the effort to find a thread where your post might fit.

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
Honestly, no one can really blame you for not knowing what is going on, because nobody really knows right now. We're all just speculating. Thunt has never (to my knowledge) disappeared like this, and quite a few of us are genuinely concerned for his well-being. We're coming up on 5 days of dead air from someone who normally puts up multiple twitter updates per day (and is quite fastidious about keeping everyone up to date on the status of the comic, especially if it's going to be late), so I think there's more than cause for concern. All we can do is hope for the best, and wait patiently to see what's going on.vagabond wrote:

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
Sorry, just to clarify - you came to the forum looking for answers as to why the comic hadn't updated, but you also chose not to read any posts in search of those answers? Isn't that rather like being thirsty, walking into the kitchen to get water, but not wanting to drink out of any of the cups?vagabond wrote:I am not a fan of this comic.

Re: Twitter tweets (currently: no tweets since 16 February)
I have a new theory on what has happened to THunt:
He's been abducted by aliens! A couple days ago the Northern Lights were visible all the way south into the northern parts of the US (see this story). So perhaps they went outside to have a look, and that's when aliens appeared and took them away!
