I appreciate your concern, llogg, but I really can’t spend my life worrying about what hypothetical people may or may not hypothetically choose to read should they hypothetically look at our comic strip. If someone finds our site for the first time, looks through all 160 comics in our archive and then says to themselves, “You know, this is a great comic but, even though it’s completely free and it takes zero effort to click on a bookmark in my web browser every once in a while, I think I’m going to have to let this one go because they aren’t punctual.”

Well, you know, there’s a special section of hell reserved for people like that — and it’s a library filled with Garfield collections.

I’m not leaving. My post was not some “take my ball and go home” threat. Your current readers probably all love it enough to keep coming back, but new readers may be more difficult to grab with an uneven schedule.

Ilogg,

You do have a point and we even discussed it after bringing it up. Sure, it is a little harder on our readers with a flexible schedule, but I know of quite a few comics that have a flexible schedule that I keep track of. Hopefully we haven’t alienated you as a reader and we do have an email list now that is only used to send you an email when a new comic is up. However, if you decide to move on, both Nathan and I do thank you for the time you have invested in the comic.

Just because you’re funnier than me doesn’t mean I’m not right about the set schedule. Good luck and congrats on a great comic.

Of course you will still have to check back manually for all of the rapier wit that flies back and forth on under the comments :)

I set-up an email notification list in the right-hand sidebar. It’s nothing fancy. When there’s a new comic? It’ll shoot you an email. You won’t hear from us otherwise.

Ha ha ha. Classic.

Seriously, though. I’d appreciate a mailing list for updates so that I don’t have to check back every day.

As disappointing as this “scheduling change” is to me, I totally understand, and I’m just glad you guys aren’t retiring all together.
