I would appreciate Rich asking a friend or colleague to churn out a quick, definitely not canon guest comic in the same vein as reader mail.

I think that more reader mail would be fun, but it would kind of break the momentum of the plot. I approve of RGR's suggestion, though.

I dont either. It really breaks the mood and its way too much fourth wall breaking even for this comic.

the plot is a little too serious at this point for a comic like that unfortunately. I don't think it's time for more reader mail.

doesn't mean I don't want more.:smallwink:

I am going to be happy with whatever I can get, and a reader mail strip in addition to other strips is fine. However, I do not see it as replacing the more common strip. Nor do I deem the start of the book the best time for it.

Maybe it would be appropriate, if he wanted to change the feel of the comic, from serious to lighter. It would serve as a nice segue...

The reader mail was epic. Rich could do a full reader mail web comic and it would still be great.

I'd like to see some, but maybe not the Order answering it. I'd like to see the Linear Guild having a go.

That would be awesome if Thog answered a readers mail

It would also be nice if there was a bonus comic or something that had the OotS as a cast page or Marching Order with their new appearances.

I don't have any of the books besides OotPCs and SoD.... was 301 at the beginning or end of a book? I'd imagine at the beginning since the last frame says "and now we return to The Order of the Stick."

That, or we could have another intermission strip. Its been hundreds of episodes since the last bathroom break! :(

For some reason, I can easily picture the IFCC (with or without Qarr) answering reader mail...

Neither. It was inbetween strips 283 and 284. The book ended on 301.

Dear OotS,
How do you type with stick fingers? Draw a stick figure version of Trogdor. Will Haley and Elan get married?

Dear Rich Burlew,
As you probably already know, the OOTS forum has a really popular crack-pairings thread. Out of all the characters in the comic, which two do you think would make the most disturbing pairing of them all?

Come on, guys! We need a least one comic strip where Burlew answers that!

I'd write it.
Hell, if he said so, I'd write a whole four hundred pages.

I would so love that, but its unlikely he'd answer it.

Also, doesn't Rich tend to avoid the forums so he doesn't feel compelled to change things because people guessed them?

Don't worry, I don't think the crack thread is in danger of guessing anything.

We can but hope and pray.

I have to agree with the people who said sure just not oots. Either linear guild or the ifcc. But only 6 days left I can wait. :)

No! Not reader mail! This will further hinder the plot advancement! :smallfrown:

Nice one. I always wondered why sbemail always had the word 'crap' in it so much.

Uhm? 301 was between 283 and 284? What?

Katana_Geldar
2009-08-26, 08:32 PM
Yes it was, I actually thought it was a misprint as it went 283, 301, 284. But it's fitting there as there is, as Elan says, "a weekend cliffhanger". 301 was the facing page to 283 which put 284 on the page after it.

It makes sense, when you have the books.

How about this: Rich locks Keith Baker in a room with a sketchpad and a bottle of scotch for half an hour and then scans and uploads whatever he scribbles down.

It's been done before, and the mood hasn't changed much, i fail to see your point.
