Shocker: Nerdz not quite so dead.

I must thank each and every one of you who has visited the 'site but more specifically those who have visited it in the past two days. Given the Webalizer's certain prediction of Doom (0 visits a day) within the week, I expected to withdraw my comic before I found out how things could get worse. However, suddenly the number of visits have doubled and tripled. First of all, I owe a debt of gratitude (it seems) to Top 10 lists and Forum signatures. Second, the frames may have caused Webalizer to get a wee bit screwy. "Two frames are two websites are ten visits! Destroy organic life. Battle Space-Mech Gyuki." Third, my public DALNet appearances (as opposed to remaining that creepy guy with the pseudonym) have probably generated some interest in others. I thank each and every one of you for keeping the 'site ridiculously active relative to Sun. and other pre-Mon. dates. Also, POST IN THE FORUM! ::coughs::------------------

I meant that Webalizer was suggesting that my viewership was on a significant decline so that inevitably my number of visits would equal zero but suddenly it shot up (from the declined number, but not yet zero.) I don't want "handwritten fonts," though. That just sounds ridiculous. Then, I'm either back to illegibility or I'm borrowing someone else's style. I am an Arial kind-of-guy, anyway... for now.Referring to the link exchange (two bird w/one stone and a slice of raw onion on the side,) your link is fine. Commendable, even for finding my freaking logo considering I don't have a good logo. You could've mistaken it for some sort of monitor mishap. Anyway, I'd like to take a time-out to remind everyone that the "Z" does not make Nerdz cool. That is sarcasm because (1) the "Z" hurts my head (literally) and (2) Nerdz will never be cool. I put your link on the main page w/attached comic for yesterday and I'm putting up a links page tonight. It's rudimentary because... well... I didn't have a links page before. Tell me if there's something you want fixed, eh? The comic will be at <A HREF="http://nerdz.keenspace.com/d/2000726.html" TARGET=_blank>http://nerdz.keenspace.com/d/2000726.html</A> and the links page should be at <A HREF="http://nerdz.keenspace.com/links.html." TARGET=_blank>http://nerdz.keenspace.com/links.html.</A> Thanks for reading and thanks for posting. I don't have a home game to give you. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by dell:

Nerdz: A comic teetering on the brink of extinction. Hello, I'm Stoned Phillips.It seems I was hasty to judge my comic a success. Turns out (as I've written so many times) it was just the loading of the Top 10 List page that made me think such. Essentially everytime someone visited the page for someone else's comic (I'm the only one that clicked mine) I got a hit or two. Oh, well. Just wanted to make sure no one thought I had all the 'readers' I needed.------------------
