There is no cameo from so small or new a webcomic that you don't recognize all characters involved instantly.
.. then imagine them in an orgy

*Have you ever stopped Internet Service Provider's promotional mall booth just to check out comic updates?
*Ever used computer class time to check out new webcomics?
*Ever convinced anyone else in class to do the same?
*Do you plan to go to the San Deigo Con just because keenspace/spot has a booth?
*Do you plan to go to the San Deigo Con because your favorite web-toonist is going to be there?
* You plan to go because your favorite web-toonist is <a href="http://www.keenspot.com/keencon2001.html" >listed</a> as a maybe?

Okay, so I know that Stalag is doing this already, but it's been about a month since he said he was fixing the code, and my attention span is too short. So while he fixes it, I made <A HREF="http://www2.bc.edu/~boweran/test.html" TARGET=_blank>this</A> as a short preliminary just-until-we-get-the-real-one-up test using the armory template. I copied and pasted the questions people generated, although not all of them because after awhile I got bored. Also I tried not to be comic-specific (except for sluggy, since everyone reads that.) If your favorite question wasn't on there, tell me, I'll add it. Or ignore the whole thing, I dont' care. ------------------

That thing is LOOOONG! Let us put in some images so that we may not be bored, and let us divide the quiz up unto different pages so that we may have breaks in the monotony. Or, barring that, we could go get a beer.

You answered "yes" to 57 of 94 questions, making you 39.4% webcomics pure (60.6% webcomics corrupt); that is, you are 39.4% pure in the webcomic domain (you have 60.6% webcomic maniac in you). I thought it was worse than that...That's great, Falen -- is it still updatable/editable? I have no problem making this the "official" one ... once "we" agree it's complete.------------------

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>is it still updatable/editable?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>As far as I can tell, yes it is. So we can fiddle with it as much as we want. Muahahhahahah.And yes, I know it's long, which is partly why not all the proferred questions are on there. You're right, we need to spiff it up.

I did a slight update to it, added more questions, put some color on it. I think I've got most of the questions, more or less, on there. Some of them were almost exactly the same, just worded differently, so I just used whichever one I already had. I'm not sure how to put it onto more than one page, as originally suggested. Since it's not my code I'm relying on their system, which was meant to be done with a single submission. I did break it up into categories though. Any suggestions on new subject headings? Mine are lame, but I needed to put something up there to see how it looks.Feel free to say "that is the ugliest color yellow I've ever seen."As far as control: other than not putting it on more than one page, as far as I can tell our level of control is based on our ability to manipulate the html (anyone want it?)The program that calculates the score is run by <A HREF="http://www.armory.com/tests" TARGET=_blank>http://www.armory.com/tests</A> . I am only just putting it on my site b/c it needs a home. I don't think moving it will be a problem. You can have it if you want it, just email me.

Falen · Post by **Falen** » Mon May 21, 2001 7:46 am

Oh, and I linked to this thread as an appropriate place to bring additions people want to make, since I wasn't sure who would end up in "control" of it once it was moved. Is that okay?

I'd like to see the full list, but maybe it can be broken up ... is the site some sort of servie, or are you hosting it there? How much control do you have?Once we deem it complete we might want to move it to Gear or Keenvention...------------------
