I got 5Gp on "Wardrobe Malfunction" to win in the 5th.
Why, after the incident when Hailey lost her top, am I imagining the entire party gathering around with popcorn as those two duke it out on muddy ground in the last frame?
technically, the gold isn't ging anywhere, so they can pick it up anytime they want, so long as they don't leave.
you guys are all forgetting the real problem...
no fire is mightier than the fire of the plotline
no gold can withstand the heat of the fiction
when there is a huge haul of gold that is a problem for the story progression and ankward for the character development... and this gold ends up in an explosion, and the loss of the gold makes room for a new storyline, and the loss of the gold is funny
Does anyone else find it a bit disturbing that Roy didn't leap at the chance for some 'hands-on' biology lessons?
If I had been in Roy's high-heeled shoes, knowing that Durkon could reverse the effect at any time, then I would have spent some time exploring my new self. *;)
Its a 'family friendly' comic. *All the sly innuendo and rough jokes aside, that would be steppiong across the line.
Beyond that, it really doesn't strike me as a 'Roy' thing to do. *Roy is Lawful, thus things are meant to be a certian way. *I'm sure Roy would prefer to be who he is supposed to be and that 'experimenting' didn't even cross his mind.
Also, keep in mind... *fiddling with 'him'self wouldn't necessarily prove in to be of any use. *All women are different, so anything learned about Royette's 'needs' would have only helped Roy in ... *well thats a twisty road I started down. :o

Nah, the gold is still there. It's just melted down into one REALLY HUGE slag heap.
Of course, it isn't pure anymore. It now has pieces of timber, chamber pots, nails, etc. melted into it.
In a real world, maybe.
In a rpg with a "realistic feeling", sure
In a comic strip? Nah.
:-)
It was a screenplay explosion, so strong enough to delete the gold from the paper...
... or the pixels, that is
Edited for grammar corrections, please excuse my engrish
Greetings from Italy
One reason why gold is so valuble is because it is nigh impervious to all forms of chemical corrosion. Sure, you can bend it with your hands, but there is not a single acid or base that can melt it away. .

I believe there was a comment elsewhere about the comics being routinely on-time, even early?
I write this after Wednesday's being late and Friday's being MIA altogether.
:(
It hasn't been meeting the 9:00 am target very regularly, but it isn't officially "late" until midnight. So if Wednesday's comic is up sometime on Wednesday, it isn't late.
Friday's is definitely late, though. Normally there are comments before now. I wonder if people are still digesting turkey?
Of all weird traditions sales-companies have brought overseas to us europeans to earn more money, they haven't brought this yet! Only a matter of time I guess... *::)
Oh.. badly off-topic
I can understand a miss of a strip if there's holydays going on. I just like to get a head up first. He could have mentioned it in last newsposting. :)
You know us Americans...we expect the whole world to keep track of our holidays.... ;D

Speaking of Canada
I listened to the "Lost" podcast today. And the producers commenting the show was canedians and they had this funny greeting the was joking around about:
"Happy THANKSGIVING!... or as we in Canada call it: THURSDAY!"
well.. it sounded better on the pod... :P
ugh.. see what happends when we don't get our OotS dose!.. *looks forward to many terrible forum posts untill monday*
This has been addressed multiple times in multiple threads.
NO.
The gold was not in bags of holding. It was in ordinary bags. This is because the bags of holding are full of other treasure.

Amazingly, the marketing gurus haven't really figured out how to make a buck off of this holiday in the US either. A little bit off of turkey and a few decorations is all. The day after, however, is another story all together. It's called Black Friday here and is considered the first shopping day for Christmas. It's the biggest sale day of the year. Almost every year we hear of someone getting trampled in the mad rush for the big sale item at a Wal-Mart or some such store. The funny thing is that, since they can't seem to market Thanksgiving very well, most stores are now resorting to putting out the Christmas stuff the day after Halloween.
Edit. What the heck! What was I thinking when I linked to that quote and then came out with the above. Must have ingested too much turkey. Anyway, Looking forward to the 250.

That pisses me off so much! We're loosing Halloween :'(because of this lack of visibility. I see less and less children passing it and even saw some of them do it in CAR!!! What's the point of it then? Candies? (please don't be so materialist). Where's the fun in car??
In case people are only reading this thread, I'll link the thread in which it is explained, too. The Giant Explains
oooohh.
The giant posted that shortly affer my last post (in respone to Annalia), but thanks for the heads up still.
Although Sunday evening probably means Monday morning over here anyway. ;)

Hey, don't sweat it. I like the way you make it sound like a stock market crash - Black Friday. Just about sums up Christmas for me. This year, we're buying a goat for an African family via a charity. No one else is getting any presents.
