If pink is an affront to your particular  sensibilities, we do apologize. If you happen to love the color, then you’re welcome.

But for real, STORY STUFF! What’s up with these Lost Ones, hm?

  • New site looks fantastic. Also I hate pink :P

    Ah, this is how GPS devices of the future could be like….when you're lost, they come looking for you. But, they might still keep constantly recalculating the route or telling you to make a U-turn when you're stuck in traffic under a bridge on the highway (it can't communicate with the satellite and assumes you're lost, I guess).

    I can see how her presence might thwart Gunner's and Zap's plans. She stops her hair from carefully covering herself and almost anyone could stop them while they're staring at her. Zap's “No Dudes” policy holds strong even with his holograms.

    Anyone else think Robot's going to forget he's plugging in and get yanked back when he starts to run after her?

    Er… *plugged* in….not “plugging in.” Silly verb tenses. =P

    Aach! It just keeps getting more and more complicated! Maker, Objective, Brethern, Lost Ones. It just keeps setting its hooks deeper and deeper, demanding, nay, ensuring that we return week after week. I wish that I could have the gift that the writer/artists have.

    Help! I'm a little lost here.

    Did we already hear about the “maker” and the takeover? Because it seems that robot knows about it. Maybe I just forgot it?

    Its news to me.

    But ya know, she is a robot. Maybe “maker” just means whoever built her. And this is just a guess, but I assume the lost ones would be psychics.

    Woo! Some time away, and when I come back, a bunch of new pages [i]and[/i] a new site. I am one happy Mizu.

    Last panel sounds a lot like Darth Vader and the Jedi to me :/
    Maybe Deadalus is C3PO ? xD

    Yadda yadda yadda pink naked lady talks too much. When do we get to find out what Naveed and her little gang do next?

    If Daedelus is Zaps' ship, was Excelsior Gunners' ship?

    (Trying to get you to show off Gunners' ship, I can extrapolate that Excelsior belonged to Efrem)

    There's no real basis for either of those assumptions, as far as I can remember …

    Do we know if the archive comments are going to be fork-lifted to the new site? If not, I suppose my OCD will have be restarting my archive-trawl so I can ensure there's at least one comment on each page … *sigh*

    Great page, rife with speculation-driving hints! And while I'm no fan of pink, I have no objection to it either …
    Also, I love the artful positioning of long hair to maintain a PG-13 rating!

    Yay for snazzy new site! I like the splash page artwork too; It's pretty and romantic. :D Assuming the “maker” programmed the Daedelus AI, I'm wondering what suddenly changed his mind about the “primary objective”…? Why not re-code her objectives instead of hiding the ship? The plot thickens!

  • No, there's no real way to reassign the comments to the new pages. I had posted several messages about it on the old site encouraging people to come and comment here since the comments would be evaporating, but people ignored me and just kept on going. So now I feel doubly worse about it. :/

    I remember those warnings; I saw them as I was coming up through the archives, and assumed that the move referred to in those warnings had already happened …

    Oh, well; don't feel bad about it. You warned people (myself included!) that this was coming. If we didn't listen, it's our own fault, not yours.
    I don't mind so much restarting my archive binge anyway; I had kind of stalled for the last couple of weeks anyway … ;)

    On an unrelated note: happy birthday to Chris L.!

    P.S. If I can't stop you feeling guilty, maybe you could assuage your guilty feelings with a new vote incentive? Just a thought …
