See, I am also done (I've written practically all of my essays already: I have one 125 word one left :P) But I'm also applying to 11 schools -_-

My parents can be off sometimes, not as bad as sircmpwn's, but imo sometimes stricter than I'd like. I don't see any reason I shouldn't be able to spend my own money on something like a domain name...Anyway I actually haven't directly asked yet, maybe I'll finish up some app work this week and then see :P

It's actually good :D Nice job.
Btw, are you planning on making a storyline or anything out of this ( like QC ) or at least making some constant characters ( like xkcd )?
^ Seconded. I like how the characters in xkcd reappear. It gives them character :)
Edit: I dont think .tk is blacklisted on google; DT's clrhome comes right up..
You have to go through a process to get it unblocked. It's highly annoying.
Really? My site was never blocked ???

You are right, my apologies, google only blocks .co.cc not .tk
It seems facebook has blocked .tk though.

I'm thinking about regular characters like xkcd :D but first I need to polish up the artwork a little bit in order to make the characters a little bit more distinguishable.

Also I'll be able to get a .com domain name anyways, even if google doesn't block .tk it's still annoying to have it blocked on facebook.

I think it needs work.... it doesn't have a unique gag nor is it really witty at all.... and the price for a domain changes depending on the service.....

you should probably indicate what he should do to make it better, make your criticism constructive, instead of merely saying "it needs work".  How does it need work?  How can it improve?

oh, and I really like QC just because it has an ongoing story line, squidgetx, so I would suggest that.  ;)

Well, considering he gave the points that he didn't find the jokes witty nor did he find any hidden gag punchline, I think his criticism is constructive as it can be; it's rather hard to tell the joke maker what jokes to make, doing that ruins the creativity part.  It's no less constructive than the "LoL that waz funniez" posts.

I kinda actually agree with both of you here; while I would've like him to give examples, etc. Ashbad's right in that that's pretty much as much as he can say if he doesn't like it :P A lot of the jokes are a little subtle and they might need a few rereads (I should maybe make them more obvious?) and some of the earlier strips are only funny if you go to my school (namely, 'Schedule', 'Censorship' and 'New Carpet') so yeah :P I'll admit that some of them aren't amazing. Though I thought that a couple of them aren't too shabby...lol.

I'm not sure about keeping a storyline...I'll have to think about it.

I'm looking at a .com for ~10$/year but as of right now I dont know if I'll be able to get it soon :P

'Censorship'
Censorship is hilarious.  My school has a similar problem. ;)

Yeah, I think it applies to pretty much every school that have a firewall.

Hey DJ_O! do you use opera?
Yes I do and yeah Squidgetx I said crappy uptime because often .tk sites won't even respond at all. In the past, sometimes people would report that Omniurl.tk links wouldn't work at all on IRC. This seems less bad now, though, but dot.tk got its bad moments sometimes x.x

And they've got other issues too -- in the past few days both my domain and Freyaday's were suspended for "violating the terms of service," even though neither site did anything to warrant that label. A request for reconsideration fixed it nicely, but they seem to be having technical trouble :/
