I guess we'll see in the morning. ...Unless it's a multi-part comic. I kinda hope it's as simplistic as it seems, but it may not be. Ok, well they are now definitely moving of their own accord. What's going on? Oh god, the suspense! Will it be worth it in the end? Please don't be sad or scary...please please please don't bite his leg off. xD I've seen mention of the BTC string, but not what is below it. So I just haven't scrolled down the main page in a really long time. Thanks. You know, this kind of reminds me of the paintings in Harry Potter. Does anyone have the URL/a Mirror for the first photo? I looked in the source code and was able to find a javascript file. It's 2:01 EST, and I'm not seeing a new frame.goddammit. They'll spend a lifetime building a world from scratch and grow old together. Unless the Gif is being adjusted in some non-obvious way. Now I don't have to be afraid to leave work in case I miss something. Was unsure about the gender, and just went for the most probable. seens like the castle wasn't complex enough, so she's building more stuff Oh my God, watching this comic is so thrilling and... time consuming. I was interested to see the progression of pictures that I missed. I get it! Randall is also a fan of Songs of fire and ice. Randall is also a fan of Songs of fire and ice.Called it. I have a feeling that this won't be some thing that just ends by next week. (I stopped after page 8, starting at page 13)- RG> Is the sand getting more roughed up over time as he walks over it? Why would he do that, particularly in such a long, drawn out way? You must be new here... the suspense is terrible. i hope it'll last Can we come back to the main topic, please? What is that suppose to mean? Maybe its over. Or maybe we just have to wait some more. Same here. I was hoping for something different, like a knight to go with the rook. bigger castle! why am i still online? This is way too addicting. Just a side note: Is this the largest comic thread this forum has seen? Philip on page 2 maintains a list, but that is rather tedious... It's hex(rot13 (a_secret_string))a really secret string MWyqayetJqc I think Randall is trying to say that they are having a baby. Wow. Okay so the auto updater survived the night flawlessly. I hope he gets back with the sandwiches soon ... she'll be getting hungry. He's been 'waiting' for his free time, we're gonna be waiting for the end. Maybe this means it's more about the construction than the two of them? Interesting.Well, intriguing at least Bits are falling off again. Probably posts that got accepted after more posts were made.Yup. I personally think this really will go on for months, if not years. And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually... Maybe another tower in the center of the big square section? If there's a joke I don't get at the end of this, I will be LIVID!! 17 minutes left before we see if she starts heading that way If this was Randall's intention, the man is a genius in my book.... Didn't see you there! First post. Nice to meet you all. Eeek... 10 mins late? Nah... This is going SO WELL.I CANT WAIT FOR MORE!!!but i have to. I bet she's going to come back and see he built something really cool. Well that looks like the end of the surge of posts for the latest image. I'll see you all and your updated theories in 20 mins. Argh! Girl in the lighthouse 59That is all I am going to say. You think he's lonely because of the length of the gap between updates. He's just waiting for her to return with the flag couple of minutes. Please lets not let it get as far off topic as Pickup artist.... Please... Just to see how nuts we'll get.Either way, he's doing a good job. I know I should rest. Big day tomorrow. Sigh. Can't leave the my desk now. OMG he moved! This is awesome! Ok, he's done crenellating. The waiting is like those impossibly long nine -months! I'm a GENIUS!!! Even if he can't, which is nobody's fault, not even the Romans'. I can only hope. Longtime lurker, hitherto untested poster.( There is more to this than nerd-sniping. Looking atthe abyssthe other side. Looking atthe abyssthe other side. i think there is more? Ahh his head turned. The guy was gone for 22 frames. The girl has only been gone 10. It explains how we are imprisoned by the works we have created. I haven't been here in years so I had to get a password reset. But I just had to come back, I've been lurking here since Monday morning. More conjecture... What is going to be left in place once this is done? Not sure what this can tell us, but I wanted to add it to the mix. I think I was at work for a while, but I can't really remember. EDIT: Or just wait until the next interesting comic rolls around... I personally think that this MMONS is going to go on for years. and its all because of everyone else out there watching and waiting. Who would he have been hiding from if not us? good morning from Europe. Huh. Some say that he did it, but to me it seems like some one (Black Hat?) Or there's always the feathered velciraptors, waves, lions or hat guy. Now, will he rebuild, or will he call it a day and leave? Time... will tell. And slept at some point? But besides that... WHY IS THIS SO TIME-CONSUMING. I've just got to work and am ready for a day of hardcore waiting. Its great to see what people will do just to keep up to date with this. And that seems to be the precise formula to keep us addicted. Pterodactyls? What should we expect there...? Share the shared experience! Was nice checking the picks every half hour but alas I need sleep. This comic may not turn out to be something you can really wait through. I made a forum account just to post that there was a new picture. It's fascinating to see how engrossed people are. Touching somehow. How was it 30 minutes out? I thought timezones were spaced hourly. Your suggestions would have ruined the mystery in the beginning. Clearly this means that Randall has been diagnosed with psoriasis. I almost don't want to sleep tonight because of this darned comic!! Gosh. EDIT: How sexist, assuming 'he', sorry if you're female, Aubron! They must be on some kind of lake. Aubron Wood is male. How to find out? I predict that they will jump the shark ten frames from now. Literally. squonk wrote:I predict that they will jump the shark ten frames from now. Especially since he's a guy anywaySWuh's response is the best. I didn't really know if it had changed or not, but it captured me. Also frame 20, because I find woman who shake their hair sexy. Well, not anymore, anyway...)Not anymore, anyway indeed. What if ... the more posts we get, the more slowly time moves in the comic? Oh you must have missed the fora link discussion a few pages back. SWuh put it best a few posts up.Sod it, off to walk the dogs! We want it to stay around forever, just like a real sandcastle. A relationship would be a 'thing' too many to worry about! I just can't quite get emotionally engaged with these images. Meaningful progress in the next frame?Five minutes to go: place your bets. I took it to be he was doing more detailed work on the castle. I totally looked up to see if 6 Flags owned SandCastle today. What a convenient period of time! And your battery just died? Like sandcastles. And time. And... stuff....yeeeeah, Imma go cook some french toast. We must go deeper. (sorry) This is much bigger than all of us now... I find it hard to believe that he'd expect us to go so crazy. Surely this is the most important of all the frames, it sets the scene! I'm glad it didn't end there. Augh! No! He's gone! Why did he leave?!?! Mr. Maybe that's part of the hidden dialogue of these two characters. It's the perfect time to leave. It should help me to stop going crazy. He started to, but that one little piece is still not quite wide enough. It looks the exact same to me, then again, my eyesight is horrid. One on the inside of the gate, one on the third turret from the left. I know I said I was leaving but that turned out to be premature. Calm before the storm. Something catastrophic is about to happen. In the new one, the entire castle shifted a bit to the right. lol There's a new flat area of sand just to the right of the bridge. Only 50 more replies to make this the most replied to forum... OK. I saw the actual shift this time. That has satisfied me. Megaryuu wrote:Is this the most -viewed thread of all time? Wait for it The frame definitely just shifted slightly to the left! Uhmm, does anyone else see this as zooming out very slowly now? Been lurking for years now. Anyways.All I wanted to say is...

Why not just another zooming picture with no new castle? We Broke it! It changed! Actually, properly changed. I'm so relieved. Did anyone save the flag picture? Or do we have to ... wait for it? A flag? Nah, it would be more rectangular. Looks like a leaf to me. But I guess, within a spoiler tag, you might as well bump the whole block. It visibly moved! By MORE THAN ONE PIXEL!!!!!...so it has come to this. I wonder how much money is being lost per newpix (or newpic)? It's a shame that the wrong image slipped thru to spoil the upcoming frames. Why would you usedays ?I think days have something to do with the Outside. At least we still have our sandcastle.I don't know. Nobody does. From the stories, I expected the Outside to be sad. And it was. Do these 'Days' from the 'Outside' correspond with these cycles of newpix? On that note, I think we may be just a bit off topic at this point. Is that like Outside? (I am hesitant about starting this again.) I searched for a while but after 20 minutes I could not find it. Over 300 people with way too many newpix on their hands. It is time not to fight, but to live.I think we need a motto. I vote in favor of Newpic for singular, Newpix for plural. Your article may not last long.There is no harm in the attempt. Many of the oft -repeated concerns (did we get the javascript? So the present has finally caught up with the future. Excellent. I think I believe in a religion for the first time in my life. There is no 'Outside'. These 'natural instincts' are nothing of the sort. And bombard the two sandcastles with whatever a trebuchet hurls. In the beginning the Creator Randall brought forth and gave us Time. All that was left of Time was the Sandcastle for us to gaze upon. Maybe if they had organized themselves Jesus could still be alive. Not sure how you can figure when it is suppose to finish panning. IIRC the panning rate changed while the person was calculating it. Sad to see that the article failed very soon after it started. She (and Cueball?) is (are?) dead and is (are?) trying to come back. To here. SHE'S BACK!!! Phew that's a relief to atleastsome of the worse outcomes... All the area within the towers in the old castle is flat! Eventually I may want to go back and review those pages. maybe this one will explain what the hell that thing is on the left. YAY! 1 post in 40 should be an effectively -content-free repost? Woke up to see the thread go from page 56 to 71. Just, brilliant. How does he do it?I sound like a serious addict. Hold on, I think I swallowed a gerbil. Okay. What was I saying?. Keep awesome, but don't invent too much new stuff while I'm gone! Mornin',SWuh! I slept a couple of newpix after watching the slow zooming out. We will see you on the other side So now I know what mittfh stands for.... So now I know what mittfh stands for....I can't believe I just googled that. VERY happy with the flags. I was secretly hoping the whole time. I didn't dare dream of such a world. Yet, here it is in front of us. I think that is the first time we have seen that in any of the pics.

All who have gone there have come back mad men! Cueball continued developing on Earth, then left to join Megan. Ah, yes. On a par with 21 as far as setting the scene goes. We found that he joined her and they built up their world together again. Also, omg, did I just coin a name for a new religion? Riversong is a level 1 guardian who's never left Archet. Then why did Cueball dip his toe in the water ?Crunching ice is fun? Proving that Time will pass you by when you aren't paying attention. Awesome!)Suggested official religion theme song for Timewaiting I consider it one of the most glorious moments of Pre-Time. Why are so few of us catching on to this? Stop waiting for the end! I don't know. I do hope this castle keeps building until Monday, now. I could be as long as 48newpix. Which is a scary thought! You know, I think it's just Randall being Randall. There's no deep story. Well... yes. Call me old fashioned, but this thread would make a hell of good book. Perhaps it would be indistinguishable from instantaneous. Oh no... I was in photoshopI guess I could be the Joseph Smith?? If they hug I might actually burst into tears.Wait for it. Kind of sad really, but still good. I guess we'll see soon enough won't we.

The period of the tides are twelve hours (two periods per day). I'm not predicting anything, merely keeping all options open. Wait for it. Hey! The animated GIF has just sped up! I giggled Tell Me, what are you Smokin'? Wait! No one else post any more replies! Clearly Megan is more of a tea drinker than a coffee drinker. Anyone notice that Cueball's voice is coming from pretty high up? You have to swim through the sea of semen to reach the sea of bacon We can easily reach 7 pages, but 8 seems unlikely....wat... I'm actually the only real person on here.Dang. That's sad. She, that is like sky -fire, and the Donner of voices proclaim her. The solemn postures and their distance apart tells me something is wrong. Cue ball is going to suicide in the sea of pregnant babies! I'm a big fan of lava and bacon. I think java is just weird. They built a castle for semencancerbabies to grow in. I.. hmm.. I personally think the empty castle frames are the most poignant. I'm haunted by guilt of not having posted to this thread earlier... Too bad someone else said the same thing at around 20 newpages Just trying to keep people awake until the next frame is displayed. The Age of the Slow Pixel is similar to the Debut or What? So... how did you learn to take off your wedding rings while doing field work? Maybe by sprucing it up, she can remember those times more fondly. Ghost? Where did the ghost come from? What mechanism is therefore needed? AussieJono wrote:How aboutThe Age of the Slow Tide? OR the knights coming riding out of the castle RIDING the raptors! Hurry up time!

I'm pretty sure I just saw him move, but its been less than a newpix. At the rate this thread is going, getting with the Time is pretty hard. Maybe instead of trying to keep caught up I should just post Time puns. It might not get me prophet status, but a kite? (that's new isn't it? Yay us! ... wait, what did I just volunteer for? And will it be gross? (please?) I find I have to repeat myself. C'mon, Megan, come back, we need you! Hm. Perhaps he's not building a large central tower after all. By the way, why are we using CamelCase? Why not “Time Waiters”?Oops... I don't havetimeto examine every aspect of my life right now. Cuz we were told to WAIT for it, 'member? So we're the Time-Waiters. See? By the way: was there a new What-If after the beginning of Time? ONLY RANDALL is the one true Time Keeper!!! Shun the non believer!!! Cueball seems to be carefully unsculpting a crater of some sort. If Megan has been out of the Time Frame for that long, it can't be good. If the ocean was moving, I think it would be more noticeable. Actually the thread took from my sig, not the other way around. Original quote (from Freaks) uses 'her.'Oooh new frame in 3mins! No worries. It just adds to the many layers of recursiveness We should translate the creed.OHMYGODweare such NERDS!!!!! (this is AWESOME!) it's way past midnight now- I though it updated at midnight. Humming I only spotted that when you mentioned it and I now feel fulfilled. But everyone knows the Witches are the best part of the Disc.Great. Still not sure how to confirm you all arn't just Randall Holy Crap! You have to have at least 5 posts before you add a sig, for one thing. And... supposedly I now have a signature? Let's see if it works... The whole religion thing is a massive case of misplaced attention. Cueball! Why is the tower to your right, our left, not crenelated? You have got to be kidding. ERMAHFERKINGERD FIVE FERKIN THOUSAND I see what you did there.Well maybe. If that's what you meant to do. When a new comic is posted, at that time I footnoted above. Looked like a curvy arrow to me but yes I think it's an archway. I would seem like 'Ball is digging from the other side./Lasse Although, perhaps he doesn't realize, she did most of the building.

It's the snow (S N O W) believers... they are attacking. Please enlighten me, good sirs and madams: What the bleeding hell happened? Re-edited to add: delayed ninja'ed by dreiarmumig. Is this happening automatically? Why? He notices the ball! What next? The Object remains, and Cueball seems to see it moving! Ah! Why?Didn't you get the memo? We all type like this around here now. Argh! They're coming too fast for me to keep up with in my replacer! But maybe it'll do so in the next one or the one after that.

If I'm reading the data stream right, that's where I think it would have gone. Although it's weird that Megan didn't move. is it back to newpix now? (Which is why I quote a post that's close to 40 pages in the past.) So we changed it to Timewaiters. Why is Megan building a mountain? You don't need to be a cardinal to be pope in this religion Or an or more of her hats?I think we need Pope Helper's help with this. Oh, sorry, not yours KarMann, you're good, just ALL THE OTHER HATS THERE ARE!!!! Still, it provides some kind of metric for how long it's been going on. If cueball's slide was the Fall of Man, is this the Fall of Woman? WAIT. Remember that one time you took some Tylenol and it tasted off? He's helping out! oh, I'm glad she's ok. I was worried about her. Large, central tower? Taj Mahal in the middle, or something like that? Converted to post -zoom pixels, that's about 9. Currently, it's 5. She's going back for another taste. She has a scientific mind. Pretty sure it means productivity will be down again today. She's asking because she can't see over the big block of sand she built. All it has done is add on more to our knowledge of the (inside) world! EDIT: Ninja'd by the River Tam references... and she IS far out... Shouldn't that be 'Its actually retreated' (no apostrophe)? That's okay - they're not livinginit, just building it.I wait Things have slowed down but the Timewaiters will not rest until this thread is.. I totally jumped the gun. I ran out of things to post about lol I've been lurking since about 10 newpix from the beginning of Time. Personally, I think all procrastinators are...Well, never mind. To be fair, that a grammatical error, not ambiguity. How's he going to do the top?maybe they built stairs into the back? It's asymmetric. What's the point? Of course. Have we become mind readers? Or, enter two things once.Oh what path is this going down on? I can't wait to see the people re-entering this thread's reaction. OK, done for now.) KarMann wrote:So we can beat it, of course.

We're sorry, but they possessed you into swearing in an anti-pope. Yay me! Your hat's the same as the last one. also, why would we burn them? So, what's everyone think Megan is up to now? Building more castles? This is clearly 1 /4 of Mount Rushmore,therefore I claim victory. Also, it sounds like you are saying 'wait here', which is kinda funny.( Waitier just sounds like something is heavier, and Waityer is enh.) I think the coma -induced hallucinations have started early. I'll try to come up with something today during breaks at the office. You are wrong. The Past did not exist until the 49th Newpix. The creator of that sign died of cancer, you know what that means right? Donnie Darko's Skull by My brain hurts! on FlickrAnd you know what that means? The name we give to the Creator aspect of Time is Lord Randall. A: A Frame is a Revelation from Time through the One True Comic. Is he going to put a roof on that structure? Is this possible? Done. Now outsider days and night cycles appear more obviously. Nah, Sodium (Na) does that.It also explodes in water. I believe they were just speaking in tongues. Those may be the same thing though. Never, I've also never dropped a piece into a bottle of coke. What I meant to say was: IT WASN'T ME!!!Plastic or Glass Coke Bottle? More? He took two down before, right? Unless you think this tower needs three? I'VE HAD IT WITH THESE MOTHERFUCKIN' ORCS ON THIS MOTHERFUCKIN' PLANE! You two must fight to the death! Whoever dies first wins!I'm in! Wait, we believe in the in the resurrection of the body, right? PS: Pope Helper, I suggest you readthis, you could find it useful. Wait, why do I need inphallusability? I mean, I'm the Pope! If your post is still the newest in the thread, you can just delete it. I don't know what you're talking about, HAL.Let's not get into this. I had to look up Iron Giant, never saw that one I'm afraid. Dave Bowman: Hello, HAL. Do you read me, HAL?HAL: Affirmative, Dave. You're saying that cold -hearted manipulative bitch is still alive? Heard of it, that's it. A coma's starting to sound pretty good. Night all! Scotland should always be the kilt.Which would mean the UK would be... You forgot to say [d/g/b]onghow many do you have to do? Somebody should stat up some NPC sheets for Megan and Cueball. Wait a moment, you also mispelled my name when you ratified me!

Black and white, baby. Black and white.Bees are black and yellow silly. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain.Time to die. That's an interesting view, but to find out we just have to Wait for it. Looks like you grossly underestimated the passing of time.

It's a Droste Effect (no one seemed to notice I mentioned this last frame). I stand corrected Nice to see the jibberish converter has stopped.

You can call me the JIT Ninja I feel like that fly in A Bugs Life... There is no 'f' in 'space'. The closest you get to it is the 's' sound. A tingling in my left arm?

Dropping this on a Friday? (The ocean doesn't change behavior much.) The kind you want to hear when getting approval of Seas of Semen. But what if we had more power? Does that mean the end of Time is near? Well 6 more pages untill we reach 9 digits Where's he off tonow?? Doesn't work for me ?It's working now.sadly not quite worth the wait. Again, I just woke up, I could be way off, but I don't think I am. Now what is THAT?/Lasse Battering ram? Or wood to build a palisade? Run! Strunk and White have made it absolutely clear that commas are puce. EDIT: Changed he to she. There's your other tripod leg... Another one!

My favourite is the rising phoenixYou are forgiven, my child. Who am I kidding, I'll pay top-dollar for a signed 1st ed. copy. Well excuse me for not reading all of the last 200 pages!... Damme, you're right. There's been a major lapse of time since I saw the movie. Ühhh... pfff, yëh, nëvërmïnd. Ï müst bë sëëïng thïngs...

TIme to coma. Do we know what the box was all about?Whats in it? what does it do? It could almost be at the end, but I doubt it. This is forever. Is that a tiny Megan on the left edge of the center model? At least we learnt one thing this weekend - Time isn't made of strawberries. * I'm assuming, based on your first name.Yes, yes, I remember too! As it happens, I've finally caught up to the current midseason. Are you placing an order? Please provide size and color preferences. Oy.

I wonder how powerful her trebuchet will be? Maybe there is a larger sand-castle that she can fire upon. She carried in poles, what looks like a sheet, and what looks like cans of paint. Do you know what I would put between those 4 poll's she is putting up. Maybe they forgot about the model and will update it later. This may be tricky using wet sand, but hey, wait and see. Morning all. The thrown sand would give us a max frame rate, but not the min or set rate. Raptors would be most welcome.BHG would be. Not the raptors. Totally different idea. Not a looping /cyclical theory. No, it doesn't, it actually retreated a little this week. Would be a crude type of sail. The poles are arranged in pairs? masts and sails??? And yet I've seen you guys post images. What gives ?Anti-spam measure. That way if the key was known then the timestamp of each frame would be, too. No, no, you're right on. Catching is all instinct, and gut-based reflexes. Definitely a stair... or a rail? Well, it's not Roman numerals. Good point.Bits of castle used to fall off when you just looked at them. Three coplanar points are sufficient to define a parabola. I don't think I need to provide references, youse guys are on the ball. (Has anyone else suggested that yet?)Wow, this is a great theory. Gallows, one for each of them. cmyk wrote:AM I NOT YOUR PROPHET?! But what if it is a snow-globe? I think there will be a dinosaur. Air molecules?I propose that sand grains be the currency of Time. Added: All we can say for sure is that it has at least four edges. Hum. By the way. This four vertical strokes don'thave tobe poles, after all. Looks like Cueball is trying to understand what the sea is doing... Anybody else think ChronosDragon's thing looks a bit like a bra? How exciting! We will finally find out if it tastes like coffee! (Seedefinition.) Therefore, a monologue is not a dialogue. But asynchronous communication is not under discussion. Although there would be some sand, it's pretty tasteless compared to the brine. There was this, a mere 50ish pages ago... Is this what you seek? Unrelated: where is the Pope? It's been a while since the last time /s? Looks like some frames of nobody approach. Maybe another zoom out? When was the last time the Brothers Chaps updated that site, anyway? Ah, you are correct, and I apologize for my errant snipping. I second that vote. I confirm the second of that vote to confirm. Ball's color is fine, as long as it's visible under all the hair. That would be the First and Second, Third and Fourth, and the Seventh and Eighth. The Ninth refers to the object they are watching, not a proper noun. Is it just me or is the forum really slow all of a sudden? If you prove yourself worthy, you can join the ranks of the Knight Watchers. Will she be able to get that Planck on top of the Poles on her own? Do you feel in, my child? If so, then no. Silly Megan, you need help. Hold on, I think I swallowed a gerbil. Okay. What was I saying? EDIT: drat, this is my 100th post. Need to post something inane. People like you make reinventing the world all the more difficult. Shouldn't that be the Worm?Edit: This would make an awesome Worms landscape... You're saying we should beware a rift in the Space -Time continuum? At the time it was speculated that Cueball was adding himself. If a Mome and a Pope owned a shop, would it be a Mome and Pope shop? Promotion to Pope is just a minor bump in pay grade.Wait what? That is true. Maybe someone could re-write it. Do you know anyone? AionArap wrote:StratPlayer wrote:Perfect.

She carried them in by herself, and they seem quite large. Right top board raised and positioned by MeganWhat's wrong with this picture? The top boards are shown to have width, about 6x the width of the poles. I would have thanked you sooner but I was checking my eyelids for holes. No, the Knighthood, as per it's inclusion in Time, is gender neutral. Which is as it should be.In fact, I defy you to try. Miscalculated. Maybe a ninja post will bump me?Don't worry. Miscalculated. Maybe a ninja post will bump me?You're welcome! My future self is still essentially myself. Can one knight oneself? Can one knight oneself? And what about bestowing a Knightly title? I'm a knightAnd is Megan carrying something cmyk wrote:[snip] ...Want in? Ah. Well, in that case, it happened because Randall wished it to be so. We knew in our hearts that something would happen by sunrise. And it did! Yes it is just crap I re wrote from the first few forum posts on time. The important thing is that you're on good terms with people of all faiths.( Our creed is simple, and ordained by The Great Lord Randall: Wait for it. Anyway, it sounds like a throwback, and not for the poster alone. As an Outsider religious argument, it is quite a good one. That will teach me to mess with such dark powers when in need of coma. I think my 16 -year-old daughter may have hit the nail on the head. I don't think this is a porch or a hut or an observation post. Seems to be holding, so far...No way sand could hold back water like that. It would only look like a ship when the 'sea' was up to the decking. Welcome Flotter! I immediatly promote you to HigherGrain! I think shit will get real very very soon....THE END OF TIME IS NIGH! Megan is pointing out that the change due to the river would be small. Nesci- err...what's that? We've outlawed retroactive recursion-knighting? Guess while I'm here I could jump a little further back and kill Hitler. That's not the first time I're read that in the One True Thread. Just sayin'. Time is love… Time is life.Philip Glass is a loaf of bread! NO CHANGE! Aha! So that's where Pope Helper went! It was the illuminati! Has anyone kept track of the creation dates of the images? But I feel like there's got to be a small river connection somehow.

Clearly the work of the intelligent raptor overlords from space. Electricity bills are enormous.How do you keep it cool? File creation dates are often messed up by file copying software. Japanese, dontcha love 'em? So, is there a new animated gif? I do have my first quibble with the Division of the Periods.

I'm starting to think he isn't taking his pope -ing seriously. So in another twenty-one pages, we'll have a new Mome! Huzzah! They prod with the Thrice Timed Fork. Or is it the Twice Tined Fork? Whichever. That's one of the best sentences I've ever heard. Might need to sig that. The Thrice Tined Spork?Spork would be better for castle manipulations. An Ordered List? or perhaps a Quarrel? (Tho I could live with Fortknight.) Must coma, and then many NewPix of labors in my own castle. I humbly put forth my application to join the Knights Temporal.

Whether I'm doin it from the actual comic page, or in the thread. Whoever's castle gets destroyed first loses. (Or maybe they'll count points.) I think they are just going to haul up building materials though. Perhaps my nightly coma will bring messages of explanation. Remember thou the First Commandment, and keep it wholly: Wait for It.

What happens after you've been doing it a long time?Cueball: Shut up! He may now be just watching and waiting along with the rest of us. I like this theory! I mean, I would, if not for the lack of raptors. As for Cueball and Megan ... stop gabbing and get on with it.. (or It?)

Wait--now that I no longer think I'm mad, does this prove the contrary? Now get on your knees, all of you, and quietly pray for leniency. So what, NewPix is changing again, or is it just a server bug??? Now I'm confused. Does Randall not have the newpix automated?Wait. Wait. Why is Megan rebuilding that part of the sandcastle? Unless... Hopefully back on our regular schedule. Time is behaving weird! Wait. What? Valley HAL??? Gag me with a processor module... Totally... Mr. Ed? That was on almost circular b /w tv! The few who have seen the True First Frame perhaps have some special insight. The first (or appears as the first) frame. No past, all future. Wait for it. The final frame to come gifted to us by the Almighty Randall! Also: Frame one. It's the only one that makes sense for a connoisseur. Seriously, tears. It's been going on for quite a few minutes now. I always felt like one of the Time-religions needed a mufti. That would explain why they don't know anything. Yesss!! I'm the PFAP! Woo-hoo! Aha! Ten minutes later, I can post! All hail PFAP Asthanius! So, in that regard, no promises, and with all due credit of course. I... I'm totally fangirling now.

EDIT: fixed the pic link, glad to know the problem's not just meI'm PFAN!!!! Of course. Good luck on that.I thought I could build a flip-book from Time. Maybe we could send it one page per outside day (24 LongPix). Blitzgirl? Blitzgirl Time! Time time time! Blitzgirl blitzgirl Blitzgirl!!! Time? time! Time! What's the gcc parameter for linking to past libraries? There might be some sort of Time-needle-pulling-thread application here... Yep, getting ready to build the next level of the chessboard.Uhh..

I hope THIS will change the world, and together we can realize It. Is Cueball on the side or above that thing-whose -name-was-forgotten? Heresy! He has been Cueball since before the beginning of Time! You may as well ask to give Time or The Great Lord Randall proper names. If fact, from what I've read, maybe his name is Rob? I miss Quantum Leap. EDIT: five more posts, please.EDIT 2: I see BlitzGirl is online. In other words, just another span of newpix on the thread of Time. Noooo, who did that? You do realize that I am reading it ALL, right? I've been along for the ride since before the first toe-dip by Cueball. My heart stutters when I get a glimpse of a new dialog bubble. In fact BlitzSpeed has been gradually climbing as her posts advance... (Internally, in Excel.) Although there are all of those links to fix. I think it's the first metaphor explanation that I've agreed with. I wasn't going to bother anyone, but since you're offering!!! I can't decide if this is really messed up, or really wonderful. Opus! Yes! I LOVE Opus, and running across him in the thread (Twice!) I LOVE Opus, and running across him in the thread (Twice!) made my day. Randall wins. I'll leave it to you to inform him of his victory.
