So, is the joke only that your computer has to spend a while 'rendering' nethack, or is there something more to it?

I found it funny, because the computer I use does that too.

Also, "You rebalance your load. Movement is difficult." was the prefect line for this comic. It's not quite side-splitting, but, anyway...Good.

It took a while to figure out (until I read the comment). Excellent idea.

I love it and I don't even know why. Got a memory leak?

Well, after spending too long trying to find a pattern in the walls and only then reading the tag at the bottom (d'oh!), I rate this one good. Brought a smile to my face.

And that happens to me, when playing ToME. Every time I move it takes around 15 seconds for the map to redraw (one character at a time),

My computer sucks, but it doesn't suck THAT much. Yet. (Mind you, I've noticed occasional lag playing Legerdemain and Incursion slow downs somewhat at deeper levels.)

RIP Dudley, killed by a rampaging horde of pageThese strange creatures live mostly on the surface of the
earth, gathering together in societies of various forms, but
occasionally a stray will descend into the depths and commit
mayhem among the dungeon residents who, naturally, often
resent the intrusion of such beasts. They are capable of
using weapons and magic, and it is even rumored that the
Wizard of Yendor is a member of this species.

An okay comic.

It gets extra points, though, for using the word "load".

Ehy I tought the browser had misloaded the pageThese strange creatures live mostly on the surface of the

Did that to me in 3.4.0 but then I upgraded to 3.4.3. Probably some kind of memory bug.

Why aren't there any new comics?

I don't really know, especially since I sent in three comics that have yet to be posted. I guess Dion's busy.

See, I was just wondering if my first (and only?) attempt at a comic was just rated not good enough to post. Glad to know there are others in the works too that are unposted.

Ah, I got an e-mail from Dion replying to my submission of two strips.

I guess he was away-from-computer or something temporarily. He's back!
