Billy the Squid Update
Hello my Zaplings! Billy has paint! I got this shot from manufacturer and it has me pretty excited. They’re sending me a prototype to give final approval and then hopefully we can finally get these little guys shipping!
Which means if you’ve been waiting to order your squid, time is running out on the special pre-order pricetag. If you’re ever planning on picking one up, now is the time to get the best deal.
If for some reason you can’t order via Patch Together (like, you live in a country other than the U.S. or you need to use paypal) you can now order your Billy directly from me at Webcomic Bucket. I’ll ship your squid to you as soon as I get my shipment from the manufacturer.
And, a big thanks to everyone who has ordered a squid! I know this has been a crazy long process and I’m really grateful to you all for being so patient. Viva la Billy!

Confession: I super love Inman’s earrings.
What do YOU GUYS think is going to happen next?
Favorite Pirate Poll!
It’s for fun!
UPDATE: So, this was me testing some poll software. And, I’m not super keen on this one. It doesn’t display the results once you vote and doesn’t aggregate the results in a useful fashion. Anyway, Results of the poll are thus: Holly in the lead by a wide margin, followed by Inman in second and Scherzer in third.
I’ll do some more research into poll integration and try some more polls later. Thanks to everyone who voted!
UPDATE AGAIN: So, I found a new one to try out. Keep on voting so I can see how it does!
UPDATE AGAIN AGAIN: So, I took down the poll. I didn’t really like that one either. It reported weird and now I have no idea which pirate is in the lead. Thanks for helping me experiment with poll stuff, guys! At least now I know of some that don’t work. :P

Zap! Halo Night (beta)
For those of you who remember our lovely Zap! Halo Nights from awhile ago, I’m going to temporarily open them back up for the new Halo Reach beta. If you have access to the Halo Reach Beta and have a few hours free this Wednesday night, we’ll be playing from around 6:30 central time to about when we all get tired of playing. If the beta lasts until the end of May 19th, we’ll have one that Wednesday too!
In order to participate, just add my Xbox live gamertag (Zap in Space) as a friend, and if you see me playing, jump in my party. If we are currently in a game, send me a message and I’ll invite you as soon as the game is over! Its that simple. Its really a fun time. You don’t have to be good (i’m not) we just wanna have a fun time barrel rolling and jet packing all over the place and having some good fun Halo!!!!!
Hope to see all you old regulars there and some new faces too.
P.S. I also play alot other than Wednesday so feel free to jump in to my party those times too, its just the OFFICIAL nights will be wednesdays.
