2 days after the previous post… exact same comic in the exact same position, no editing. Even more infinity points! Creating a mathematical paradox that could cause this universe to collapse. Sorry!



Edit: double infinity PLUS 10

Infinity points for me too, I'll catch you Dpat!

Also I have an Helixfinger comic in the picture too (the one with a red cover), doesn't count for points but honorary mention.

This is just too awesome. Congratulations to marcorossi because you only have four titles to come up as opposed to dpat57's ten.
Maybe make up a rule that if you get your own comic, the infinity clears the scores and game starts again.

What do you think?
That way we avoid having too many singularities creating points of infinity.

So if I pull an awards comic do I get infinity plus 100?

I'd say if one gets one's own comics it's 51 points, so if Niccea gets an Awards comics she gets 101.

According to this I'm at 10+10+51 = 71 points, plus an Helixfinger badge.

Sounds good. I had really thought it a lot more rare to get your own comic.
But then right after I posted that I got Lothar's comic.
I'm not keeping track of my score except to watch for one of the comics of people posting in this thread.

Now I've just had one from the top ten showing up AND generic thumbnails alternating with actual ones.
According to my calculations that's at least… zero points. 😁
Thought I'd show it off anyway.

Wow! Paul almost got a bingo there! Here's another rule from me. You get a bingo - let's call it the Holy Quail - that is three of the same thumbnails in a line across the three rows, I will announce you as the finder of the Holy Quail on a sunday post. That's the bingo win. What do you guys think?

I think maybe in a line across three rows might be asking a little too much of probability – but you never know. :)

Yeah, I know it's most likely to never happen. But thought it be cool to have it in case against all odds it actually does happen. Looking for the Holy Quail is a lot like looking for The Hol Graal. Unless you have the holy hand grenade the killer rabbit will get you^^

Lady Luck doesn't like being prodded, she gives when there's a mellow vibe.

And again. Wait, is this happening every time I update a comic? Wouldn't that be a hilarious code blip?

That's good because that's another way for me find out if you've posted an update. 🀣

Just doesn't work for me.

Edit: +25 for a bravo1102 comic!

HONK! +10 again, I'm wondering if this is a cosmic balance thing, compensating for a crap sex life.

I know making comics in of itself is what compensates my crap sex lifeπŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„ No, it was a 10 pointer, but I'm up to 30 points in total. Sorry if I confused you there😁

So noted, I'm easily confused!

HONK another +10 for me, which is strangely satisfying and makes me moan.



Edit: and I'm grabbing another 25 points for spotting a Genejoke comic, another multi-comic creator on The Duck.



…Another edit: infinity points for one of my own comics!



Warning, infinity points limit exceeded, timequake imminent!

…Yet another edit, +10



…And another infinity points for one of mine, again?



…And yet another edit, +10



I'm just trying to figure out the laws of chance that apply here. Fully populated random strips appear far more often than I ever thought they did.

…or I'm just bored.

HONK +10 and nothing to do with one of mine being in the recent updates strip, I'm sure.

Spent another couple of hours refreshing the front page and I'm still at ten points. The randomizer just hates me.
