There's a lot of Double Trouble in these comments nowadays...
Anyway, I believe the joke is that a makes a neat pet. If it eats a , it polymorphs exactly once. A wimpy sea monster isn't that great a pet on your journey through Gehennom. Hopefully Dudley has a polymorph or something handy. |

Trolling on a nethack webcomic forum with a reader base in the double-digits. Classy. |

Well, I wouldn't say double digits, probally low triple digits. |

If I could somehow be magically teleported face to face with whoever it was that started this -cursed trolling, I believe I WOULD slap them in the face, yes.
In other news, I find this comic unamusing. |

I started the "-cursed trolling" to highlight something that I believe has been lost in the for inanity. Certain users, namely L and Grognor, had been lambasting otherwise-amusing comics for errata and minute inaccuracies, as if they the Siskel and Ebert of nethack comic strips. With such a hostile atmosphere, does it really make people want to assist this comic with updating? Heck, would Dion want to write a comic knowing that such hatred is out there? |

And just so you know, I made the original fake-Grognor post on October 19, and not a single one since. I apologize for not having anticipated that a bunch of users would take the joke -way- too far, but that's the internet for you. |

I agree with Maybe . Although I admit to having some fun with impersonating (come on, it's fun!), the point about n00bs like me being afraid to submit comics is spot on. It's hard enough getting all the dots and lines to align correctly. |

I have to agree with the mimics. It's hard enough to think of jokes that work in nethack - if it weren't, I'd be writing comics. And then the response to some of them is enough to make one never want to submit any more. I prefer to encourage the writers to do better, rather than attacking them for their shortcomings.
And as for Grognor, well, everybody who reads this comic will remember his name for a long time, at least. I also thought "plastic imitation of Grognor" was rather amusing. |
cursed greased -1 thoroughly rusty Grognor (worn) |

Grognor was the one who resurrected it after the initial day's hilarity by complaining about the subject for the next few days. And, yes, "in a month none of you will remember this happened" was a bit of a challenge! But the month is up now, plus a few days for good measure, so let's finish up with this note!
Now, let's make comic strips!
PS Dion: I tried to do "cursed greased -1 thoroughly rusty thoroughly corroded partially eaten Grognor of cancellation (-1:-1) (weapon in hand)" as my username, but the script chokes over it and starts pasting it over my comment body for some reason. I did some fiddling and found that it happens if I go over 50 characters in the field. |
