First of all, I really want to apologize for all the negativity I've been building up around the comic. I think it was because of the fact that I have a bias against main characters for some reason, and then I started having this main character, therefore creating a loophole. Actually, that brings me to my second point: I've decided to NOT have a main character. The story will revolve around EVERYONE who participated. It makes things more fair, interesting, and fun

Saying that, I'll need some of the Townies' and von Karmans' PMs so I can get a better understanding of what was happening behind the scenes. If you have any, they would be appreciated, but you don't have to contribute.

Oh, I almost forgot: before I started the comic, I wasn't sure whether or not to go through with Chapter 0, but I realized that I could not only use it as an introductory chapter, but also set the tone for a concept I recently came up with called "Alternate Technology" sci-fi. (You can just skip the following if you want to...)

I usually use Alternate Tehnology sci-fi as a comparison to Futuristic Technology/Advanced Technology sci-fi. It's a concept that I recently came up with that mainly revolves around the idea of the same world, but different technology only because of circumstances. Therefore, while we may have some seemingly "advanced" technology, it's only because we focused on some things instead of others and some accidents happened and others didn't...So of course, Alternate Technology means that even though we would have different/advanced technology, we would be missing some things or they would be really simplistic. For example, we may have figured out how to make people fly, but medicine would still be people rubbing leaves into a mortar and pestle. I suppose it is kind of like a "give-and-take" sci-fi, but there are a lot of really interesting possibilities, I've found.
I was thinking of not going through with Chapter 0 and just skipping to Chapter 1, but when I realized how neatly my idea of "forums in real life" would fit into Alternate Technology, I decided to do it.

Anyway, I hope that explains things, and once again, I apologize for everything. I appreciate all your comments, and any more would be appreciated. Any at all...XD

But, seriously, thanks guys, for being so patient both with me and the comic. One more day to go X3

Oh, that reminds me: The comic will release at 9:00 AM PST/11:00 AM CST/Noon PST/17:00 BST on Monday. Every other day after that, the comic will release at 1:00 PM PST/3:00 PM CST/4:00 PM PST/20:00 BST on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Thank youuu~
