Last week Tom pointed out in the comments, and then Gary blogged it at Fleen, that I have indeed hit the 100 strip mark. Not sure exactly when, for some reason the WordPress numbers don’t quite match my own records. And then I forgot to announce it. But yes! 100 strips. I so deserve a drink.
In celebration of this, and also in celebration of the end of a semester, my friend Dan made a Spacetrawler Questionnaire, so you can figure out which character you are. It made me laugh all the way through.
take the: Spacetrawler Questionnaire
Lots of love came Spacetrawler way this week. More traffic from Stumbleupon, Bobulus over at forumopolis, Jamie Drew on his blog, Won-Tolla (Rags?) over at talkaboutcomics. And tweets from RyanFlandersMAD, JollyOldDro, porsupah, jemale, kimonostereo, dcorsetto, franbelda, FragileSound, illusionofjoy, XTaran, thanks all! And others as well, but those were the ones I could cypher out of my stats. Thank you all for continuing to spread the word and spacetrawling the web for new readers! ๐
Lastly, for domestic USA readers, you can still order merch before Chirstmas (we just got our Limbic Fizzler shirts)! Go to the Baldwin Topatoco storeย (these tee shirts no longer available)!
I figured the Trickster would most likely make me Emily. I was right.
YES. I got Dimitri.
I win.
My God! I’ve had a sex change!!! (apparently, I’m Emily)
Weird. I got Dmitri on the quiz, despite not picking any of the obvious Dmitri answers.
I know this will be a big shock…but I’m Dimitri.
*takes sip of morning vodka*
Haven’t taken the test yet — the writer and budding grammarian in me couldn’t rest. “Lot’s of love…”
“LOT’S of love?”
WHAT, by Boghrams’s Teeth, is an apostrophe doing there? It neither indicates a contraction (i.e., “Lot is”) nor possession (unless you’re trying to express that SOMETHING belonging to Lot, who lives in love, came to Spacetrawler — a bit of salt, perhaps, to rub in Nogg’s wounded pride?).
And you, a writer. As my older sister would say, “For shame! For shame! Poo-poo is your name!” (She’s a former English teacher, now a lawyer. Live in fear.)
Heh. I got Emily. What can I say? I like steak.
A kick-a$$ grammarian. Whoda thunk?
Thought I was going to get Pierrot, but got Emily! I do miss my cat.
Hey everyone, just thought i’d let you know sometimes Quizzila acts up and gives a completely random response. Oh well…
@JKCarroll, Fixed!
@Daniel, I’m sure it only does that when DESPITE the answers you’ve given, it knows your true nature. ๐
I forgot to mention, I was Martina. Which is no surprise really. ๐
Awww… the link for the test no longer works. ??
Aw! Sorry, what a bummer. Haven’t tested to see if it still functions, but here is it archived in the Way Back machine:

That is one heck of a cool, dynamic sequence. Nicely done.
I thought I’d get Yuri, what with my tech job, manga collection and my various hats with ears on them. Instead, I got Pierrot. I must own too many cats.
Poor Emily, who will bring her her hat back this time?
I thought I might get Pierrot or Yuri, or even Martina, based on the answers I gave. But, I got Emily. I suppose I’m more bloodthirsty and adventurous than I thought.
I am impressed how Emily’s (my?) coat has been on fire this whole time, but the fire doesn’t seem to have consumed any more of it. ๐
Whatever that coat is made of, I want it. (some of that material =P )
That 1 spot’s been burning since the start of the fight without ever spreading or going out. =D
(I wonder if it works like a fire sword does.)
Does the third tier count as an anti-clichรฉ? When there is a fight on board a moving vehicle and one of the combatants is held outside and looks in the direction of travel with an ‘uh oh’ expression it’s usually because there is a pole or something that’s going to decapitate them. (Not that I don’t like Emily’s head where it is.)
I think I’ll skip that quiz. Internet quizzes have already made me an invisible female St.Bernhard, so I quit while I’m ahead. (?)
Seems I’m another addition to the apparent army of Emilys out there.
I submitted the quiz again, with exactly the same answers, and it decided I was Pierrot this time. I didn’t pick any of the obvious Pierrot answers either. (I should be getting either Emily or Yuri, I think.)
I’m Martina, which *feels* right.
Problem is, according to the initial strips, I’ll die for the cause (even if I’m remembered fondly).
Can’t I just *live* for the cause…;-)
What kind of fabric burns That long? Treated coyote hide?
