Tourist destinations

April 25, 2008 by Tim

I’ve been spending this week getting a bunch of comics done in advance, gearing up to take a couple of weeks off for vacation. I’m going to spend a week or so in Liberty City, and then head down to Florida for some fun and sun. To say that I’m psyched for Grand Theft Auto […]

Yes, take backs

April 23, 2008 by Tim

Okay, so I lied. Monday wasn’t the end of the Idiots in Space. Today is. I’m rescinding my previous ending. I’m the writer, I can do that. I took a little bit of time and examined the formula for the Choose Our Adventure story, and the differences between the traditional format, and what I’m doing […]

Choose Our Adventure Story Tree

April 21, 2008 by Tim

I spent the afternoon typing it up, because the actual tree is handwritten and uses a lot of shorthand. You wouldn’t have been able to decipher most of it. The tree is still shorthand to a degree, I don’t have time to type up full scripts for each choice. But this should give you an […]

SPOILERS BELOW- READ THE COMIC FIRST I was sorely tempted to alter the outcome of today’s comic. This storyline was a lot of fun, and when I saw the votes coming in, I was sad to see it would end. However, when I started this I promised myself that I wouldn’t cheat, that I would […]

New vote email address

April 19, 2008 by Tim

I wanted to point out that I’m using a different email address for votes this comic. With the spike of incoming mail on choice days, incoming mail across the server sometimes gets delayed. That means while I’m downloading all those votes, everyone else’s mail is getting delayed. Next time we’re going to build a poll […]

I think ice cream will help…

April 18, 2008 by Tim

So, a bit of a landslide situation with the vote on today’s comic. I think that’s probably my fault. I have a feeling I made that option a little too specific, and it was out of place next to the other options, maybe making it seem like an obvious choice. Of course, for all you […]

Need tranquilizers

Bleh, I’m sick. Staying on the couch today to do some writing.

Drowning in paper, death by papercut

April 14, 2008 by Tim

So I filed my taxes last night. Tax returns are pretty much a thing of the past for me. When you’re self-employed, you have to send the government a check four times a year based on what you think your taxes will be. Frankly I always lowball it. I figure as long as I’m sending […]

Tune in Monday!

So the next choice comic will be tomorrow (Saturday). I’m not trying to schedule the choice comics on Saturdays, it just happened that way. Like last time, voting will be open for 24 hours, starting at 12am EST when the comic goes live, and ending at 11:59pm EST. If you want your vote to count, […]

Starring Marshmallow Man

April 9, 2008 by Tim

I am a bit saddened to see that the Iron Man game’s new release date is now in the first week of May. When I checked a couple of weeks ago, it was scheduled to come out at the end of April, a good week before GTA4 and the Iron Man movie. More than enough […]

You have chosen… wisely?

April 7, 2008 by Tim

I saw more various spellings of the word “octopus” this weekend than I might have otherwise thought possible. The votes were neck and neck for a while in the beginning, but then ‘octopus’ started to pull into the lead. Final count:24,342 Octopus votes21,027 Magnet votes Overall it was really fun and I think it went […]

Voting for this choice is now closed. All further vote emails on this choice from here on out are set to be automatically deleted. Results will be posted along with Monday’s comic. But wow.

Choose Our Adventure

April 5, 2008 by Tim

So the first “choice” comic is up. Voting will last for the next 24 hours, ending tonight at 11:59pm EST. Tomorrow I’ll draw Monday’s comic based on the path chosen. As I mentioned earlier in the week, I’ve loosely scripted each possible path, and some of the paths lead to the main character’s death. We’ll […]

Great Space

April 2, 2008 by Tim

So the books go on sale shortly. 11am PST exactly (2pm EST for the time-zone challenged). Hardcover, Paperback, Issue 2, and comic bundle. They say out of stock because they haven’t actually gone on sale yet. I’ve had some people freaking out thinking the books were gone already. Additionally, any order that includes a collection […]
