    And even more on alignment.

    (There's another earlier post in the same discussion, but I don't think that it should be included, not enough information.)

    I'm not necessarily advocating for this comment to be included in the index. Its relation to the comic is tenuous, and nothing in it was particularly surprising (perhaps only because I've encountered the same frustrations myself, though).

    But for the sake of completeness: International shipping has become really expensive.

    I think it is outside the scope of this thread. (And Ookoodook isn't the only source for the books/game - so depending on the circumstances this problem isn't that big [but yeah, international shipping charges can be a pain in the ass ])

    But, since the post included a quote, the simple "Yes." was enough.

    Touché. Didn't even think of the 10 character limit. Still the shortest!

    So we have a bunch of information on Shojo and him being Chaotic Good, plus how order isn't always good and chaos isn't always bad.

    And a reiteration of Shojo's alignment, and how his being chaotic good influenced his actions rather than his action influencing him to be chaotic good.

    I'm still here, but obviously waaaay behind... I was without internet this past week so didn't get a chance to do anything. Massive update incoming whenever I sort though all this stuff.

    Art should challenge preconceptions, and that includes OotS.

    I'm not sure if all the quotes from that thread should be included, to be honest. They're mostly on the same subject.

    At this point, maybe it would be easier to link to the thread.

    Or just link to each post in one sentence.

    I'd prefer to have a link to each post, since it is a very long thread. But yea, they can be all in one sentence.

    And, even after he said he was done there, there was more. (Though not really on the same subject. But still relevant.)

    Also, Girard was a ranger/sorcerer (which is what he seemed to be before, but we didn't have explicit confirmation of it).

    Alright, this is all the stuff I've got to sort through (er... if you notice something missing tell me). This is the farthest I've been behind on the Index... ever. Some of these quotes I haven't even read yet.

    Until I get this sorted out, does everyone mind keeping discussion to a minimum and only posting new quote suggestions? That way it is less likely I miss something else that gets added. If I'm unsure about including a certain quote I'll ask for a vote...

    I really do appreciate the discussions of each quote, its just I've got some catching up to do... my internet connectivity has been bonkers lately but it is holding up right now so hopefully it won't go down again.

    This was discussed a lot and will almost certainly come up a lot in the future:

    As discussed earlier, I think this s worth including. Not the part where he says he might do a less family friendly strip after OOTS. The part where he talks about the use of PG-13 language in comics. That is certainly worth linking.
