Looking ahead

Friday, July 4th, 2008

This month in the comic: V3’s crew and the rumormongers get settled in their new universe (more or less), and contact is (re-)established (sort of) with the Station Authority.

This month on the site: A new site design should be appearing some time this month. (I’d say “will be,” but I think I’m safer with “should be!”)

For another look into the future (but not very far), today’s first bonus is a “rough draft” of tomorrow’s strip. (For “rough draft,” substitute “idea scribbled on a scrap of computer paper so I wouldn’t forget it.”) The second one (by request) is a look at the cover of the “What’s Wrong with the Universe?” book that’s been the topic of this week’s strips. Thanks for voting, and if you have a bonus request, feel free to post it here!

Welcome New Readers!

Friday, June 27th, 2008

Since there seem to be a lot of people reading at the moment, I thought I’d take the opportunity to welcome any of you who happen to be new readers coming in from StumbleUpon, what appears to be the most successful ad campaign I’ve run on Project Wonderful, and of course anywhere else, too…

Welcome!

Make yourself at home, check out the three spinoffs, tell a friend about Station V3, say hello on the forum, get a copy of the book… Or (most importantly) just enjoy reading!

And for anyone who isn’t a new reader (and has read this blog post this far anyway), thank YOU for reading, too!

In other news, the ‘official’ version of the latest episode of PodWarp 1999 (“Dial F for Frankenstein” – the call-in show episode) is up on the site now. I was using the same headset as on the past few episodes, but on a different computer, and that seems to have worked much better. (So now you get to hear what I actually sound like!)

Finally, in voting bonus news, I finally closed the Rumormonger Idol round 1 poll – the results are up as today’s first bonus, and some parting words from the loser are up as the second one.

Results Delayed

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

I was all set to end the Rumormonger Idol Round 1 poll and reveal who’s getting kicked off – but the poll is tied! We can’t have that… So for now, the poll is still open, and today’s new voting bonuses are a sprite strip in which Ebb suggests Rumorbot could cast the tie-breaking vote, and a bad translation of today’s strip instead!

Back to the Bonuses again

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

The Rumormonger Idol Round 1 results are coming soon – so if you haven’t voted yet (and still want to), now would be a good time!

Meanwhile, there are two new voting bonuses up today – a sprite strip in which Ebb discusses his Round 1 performance with Rumorbot, and a bad translation of today’s strip. Thanks for voting!

Voting and Bonuses

Thursday, June 5th, 2008

The votes are coming in for the “Who Gets Kicked Off” poll, but there’s no clear “winner” yet!

For today’s voting bonuses, there’s a sprite strip in which Rumorbot gives his reason for dropping out of the contest and becoming a judge, and there’s a bad translation of today’s strip. Thanks for voting!
