I’ve made several banners for Station V3, but only one link button, and that was in 2003… I figured it was time for a few new ones!

So if you want to put up a link to Station V3 somewhere, you can download one of these to use.

Two new bonuses today, by request… An alternate version of this week’s events in V3. If Linton hadn’t won the tournament, today’s strip would look something like this, and the simulation would have looked a bit like this!

Here it is, December already! It’s been an interesting year for Station V3, both in the comic (where the station’s still missing!) and for the site, which moved off ComicGenesis in September. According to the site logs, people are still reading, which is good – I’m glad people like to read the strips I put online every day, so thanks for reading! Also, last month V3 hit the top 40 on Webcomics List and buzzComix, and near the top 50 on TopWebcomics. The NaNoWriMo thing didn’t go too far, but it’s not a total loss! (More on that at some point…) And there are over 200 V3 strip transcriptions up on Oh No Robot.

To get things started with the voting for this month, here’s a bonus strip (by request) in which Floyd helps the computer keep its circuits warm. (In an interesting coincidence, I heard “Fire” by Crazy World of Arthur Brown on the radio as I was drawing this one…) Also, Linton in a very unusual security simulation, and a bad translation of today’s strip. (The fourth panel comes out unchanged, but the third panel is interesting… and I like “escaping case” for “escape pod!”) Thanks for voting!

This year, the Dave Clark 5 finally got nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. But now they’ve announced the inductees, and they didn’t get in. Oh well. Maybe if they’re ever nominated again, the Hall can get it right next time. I suppose if they ever let in everyone who should be in there but isn’t, people wouldn’t have as much fun coming up with “everyone who should be in there but isn’t” lists!

Back on the subject of webcomics, and Station V3 in particular, today’s new voting bonuses are a bad translation of today’s strip, and some very detailed, highly technical instructions on rebooting Floyd. (Part one and part two) If you have a request for a bonus (or want to join in on the round of Station V3 “stupid answer, stupid question” going on), feel free to visit the forum!

Today’s new bonuses are an alternate version of today’s strip, an alternate billboard for V3 on the planet, and if you missed it from a couple days ago, a photo of Ebb with an alternate computer for the station. Thank You to everyone who’s been voting for V3!

If you’re celebrating it today: Happy Thanksgiving!

If not: Happy November 24!
