[QUOTE="Asmor, post: 3809715, member: 1154"] Hell, even PvP can't be PvP. Scott's been reasonably good lately, but it's been pretty common for the past several months for him not to update for days at a time and then just post a bunch without warning. So, yeah, he averages 1/day, but that doesn't mean he posts one every day. And there, you hit the nail on the head. It's all about consistency. Nobody will fault you for picking a slower posting schedule. Heck, you could probably get away with 1/month. The important thing to do, though, is to pick a schedule and stick with it! If you say you're going to post new content every monday, post new content every monday. If you say you're going to post new content on the third Tuesday of each month, post new content on the third Tuesday of each month. The thing that really gets me is that often, Rich will post a 2- or 3-page comic when breaking the comic fast, and I can't help but feel like he should have just posted each of those pages when they were completed instead of posting all of them at once. Or, heck, even if he did them all at once, just post them one at a time so he can build up a buffer and continue the normal posting schedule even if he's sick. Ultimately, though, the fact is that Order of the Stick is, imho, the single funniest-- and most [i]consistently[/i] funny-- comic on the internet. Bad OotS strips are few and far between, and he has way more than his fair share of absolute gems. If I sound like I'm complaining an awful lot, it's only because the comic's so good and I love it so much! [/QUOTE]
