Hello.
I'm the user know as martianmister/marshiyanmister/marshiyanmisuta in many sites such as Serebii forums and Bulbagarden, and other places. I have been informed by a fellow site user that there is some confusion regarding the relationship between me and this thread's former admin. Discussion about it seems to died down, but I still believe that it's important to answer some questions.
For a start, I'm not her, but I used to knew her very well. She was my cousin and we even used to live together with our families. It might seen unusual to westerners, but it was common, at least used to be very common in Turkey to family members, even married ones, to live together, since prices were high. Even now me and my brothers still live with our parents. While we used to live together, we had to use same computer and same e-mail adress: [email protected]. It's a play on a comic book character's name (Martin Mystere) and family members used it as a user name since it was a pretty unique name. If you google that name there is many accounts, most of them were created by my brothers and cousins, and most of them are deactive. My account on Bulbagarden originally created by my brother in late 2000s and we both used to use it till he decide move on. My cousin's account here is probably similar, used by both her and her brother, since I don't believe that she was old enough to post several things she posted here years ago. Anyway, we used to be pretty close friends, but certain political differences regarding our country's current president throw us apart. News of her death was a big shock to me and make me regret the things I said to her. I surely hope there is still some hope for her, wherever she is, or if she exist if you don't believe life after death.
Sorry for my mediocre english skills and thank you all.
Also, PLEASE don't delete anyting posted by my cousin, despite what her brother told you about her. She deserves to have that dignity. If you have anything else to say to me, or questions, you can find me in Bulbagarden forums. I'm not using Serebii anymore. Thanks again.Last edited by Peelee; 2020-06-20 at 10:38 AM.

Aye. Hosting the image on a new site would fix that (though only for the that one image, of course; everyone with that issue would have to do it for all them all to go away).

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Maybe we should rid of icons for supporting and secondary characters altogether? I was checking old threads by Wrecan and he didn't have them. They are a pain and most of them are unimportant anyway.

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
I like the icons. You don't have any description next to most of those characters, and I can't remember many of them by name, so the icon reminds me which characters is who. I could always look them up in the wiki, but this is easier.

Thank you so much for taking the trouble to clarify matters for us. I'm sorry to hear that martianmister is indeed no longer with us. You have my utmost condolences.
I agree, the icons are nice, and I'd like to keep them around. I still plan on doing something about them eventually, but it's a big task, and this is a bit out of my area of familiarity. I've been rather hoping that somebody with experience in this would step up in the meantime, but after I get my current set of tasks out of the way, maybe I'll have time to address this.Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII: To Absent Friends
Speaking of villains with a high number of appearances, I finally got around to reconciling the additional appearances now that we're counting him when he doesn't speak and when he was a thrall. I did notice that you missed #934 in that list.
Edit: I think the issue is that 933 is a typo. Durkon is not in #933.Last edited by knag; 2020-07-08 at 11:15 AM.

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
A thought occurred to me: should the "Durkon Turns Undead" bonus strip at the end of Book 5 count as an appearance for Vampire Durkon?
EDIT: On second thought, he's apparently meant to be a ghoul in that strip so probably not. I just found it amusing that the design remained basically unchanged and his only line was even the same as Vampire Durkon's very first line ("RRRRARRRGHH!!!").Last edited by Gift Jeraff; 2020-07-07 at 09:51 PM.

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Thanks so much for double-checking my work! I'm pretty sure what was going on there is that I was looking at the strips in the book, not in the online comic, and in the book, the first half-page of #934 is treated as the last half-page of #933. (It's possible that I'm misremembering, since I'm currently unable to get to my copy of Blood Runs in the Family, but I think that's what my thinking was.)
Luckily, due to the way the panels are arranged, the total number of pages Durkon is in is the same no matter how you do the counting, so I don't think that affects our final number. Please do let me know any other discrepancies that you discover, though.
Ha, I totally missed that joke! Thanks for pointing it out, that's hilarious.
I did seriously consider including that as an appearance for Vampire!Durkon, but ultimately came to the same conclusion you did, albeit for slightly different reasons - he's not in any meaningful sense the same character as the vampire spirit that Hel created to occupy Durkon's body. The ghoul thing is another good reason to treat him as a different character, though.Last edited by Emanick; 2020-07-08 at 04:43 PM.

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Would it be helpful if I hosted the images on a private webserver? Seems like the problem is we've migrated them from free host to free host that keeps blocking them eventually. Where do the original files reside?

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Most of them are still on imgur, it just may or may not serve them depending on the Referer and other magic, so you can access them still.Update: ah, you want the ones on photobucket. I don't know then. The last time I looked they were mostly on imgur.
Update: wait, didn't we have a separate thread collecting smilies, including extra one for the same character? I'll try to find that. Yeah, Order of the Stick Smilies, also mostly on photobucket. Some images were on the wayback machine, let me look.
Update: https://web.archive.org/web/20191208...ng-things-quot plus https://web.archive.org/web/20180228...ng-things-quot has most of the smilies. Copy them from there, then find the differences elsewhere on the Wayback machine.
Also for the three I made (the Minrah face is probably not the best one to use, someone else made a better one later), try

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Updated through 1207
Durkon Allotrope Thundershield, Kraagor (as statue), Redcloak
I'm sorry for the delayed update, y'all. I've spent the past week moving most of my possessions between addresses, and it's been incredibly time-consuming. I'm mostly done now, though, so I should be able to update more quickly going forward.
Thank you so much! That's incredibly helpful. Please let me know if the bandwidth does get to be too much; I'd be happy to contribute to keep it viable for you.
I've updated the images in the OP, and added all of the other missing ones that I could track down, too (including Kraagor, who just reached Recurring Character status and thus merits a smilie for the first time). That leaves 13 missing icons, one for each of the following characters:
SpoilerKudzu (Secondary Character, 27 appearances)
CotS Usher with Long Hair (Supporting Character, 23 appearances)
Vampire Dwarf with Blue Curly Hair (Supporting Character, 20 appearances)
Priestess of Hel with Long Hair (Supporting Character, 18 appearances)
Logann Brightstone (Supporting Character, 17 appearances)
Odin (Recurring Character, 13 appearances)
Kandro (Recurring Character, 12 appearances)
Oona (Recurring Character, 12 appearances)
Vampire Dwarf with Brown Beard (Recurring Character, 12 appearances)
High Priestess of Frigg (Recurring Character, 11 appearances)
High Priest of Mani (Recurring Character, 11 appearances)
Tinna (Recurring Character, 11 appearances)
Vampire Dwarf with Red Ponytail (Recurring Character, 11 appearances)
I really doubt that I have the graphical skill to create high-quality versions of these - I checked, and there doesn't appear to be a shortcut, besides ordinary cropping and copy/pasting - but I suppose I'll give it a try if nobody else is able to make them by the end of the month.Last edited by Emanick; 2020-07-22 at 11:57 PM.

Re: Number of Character Appearances VII - To Absent Friends
Updated through 1208
Durkon Allotrope Thundershield, Kraagor (as statue), Redcloak
Kraagor's statue has now passed Haley's petrified form as the statue with the most appearances in the comic.
I will likely implement the vampire-related changes we've discussed soon. As it currently stands, here are said changes:
Malack will cease appearing as two different characters, since he has never appeared as anything but a vampire in possession of his host's body.
Vampires whose hosts have appeared as living beings will be treated as two separate characters, the same way that Durkon and Durkon* now are. The host will be treated as appearing in every strip that their body shows up in, whether that form is that of a living being, a corpse, or a vampire. The vampire will be treated as appearing in every strip where his or her vampirized body and/or speech bubble appears.
Since these characters are being tracked as separate, they will no longer appear in the "notable alterations" section as "alternate magical forms."
I think that's everything, and I think that roughly reflects the thread consensus when we last discussed the topic. Please let me know if you agree or disagree, since this is a moderately significant change, and although I see it as an improvement, and I think most of you do as well, it would be nice to be sure.Last edited by Emanick; 2020-07-29 at 09:41 PM.
