ok,, since PC asked.. i started adding Characters: (names) ,tho they are alphabetical ,
so i can’t place comic or order of appearance.
And the lower cased names are named NPC’s or just a npc. , Location: Where it’s happening. ,
And Tags: generally, what is happening. .. i have done the first 15 ,(an today) , so far..
so if you want to go back an see the up grade.
Regarding some comments from the previous page…
Yes, I make mistakes.
Yes, I want to know about them.
Sometimes, there is nothing I can do to correct them, as with the gloves.
I have surgical gloves for the male figures, but not for the female, for example.
Sometimes I can work around, like giving their arms a pale blue rubber texture,
but this time it looked pretty bad. Others I can’t.
And Bill is providing things that I can’t buy, like the MASH modules.
Whether or not I can do anything about it, if something is off or wrong I
want to know about it.
And as Rob said last page, I have used your ideas and comments, and one character
is alive and a story written about him, and Miral, because of a comment Jochi made.
An upcoming storyline was helped by an idea given me by, I believe, Roundman.
So thanks, everyone, you make this story better.
Sorry to overstep, Catman. I just happen to believe strongly in the principle of “Praise in public; criticize in private.”
I would never presume to criticize your work in this forum. If I somehow believed I had caught you in some alleged “error” I would bring it up private channel via email.
I cannot abide kibitzers or kibitzing. A wise man once said, “Those who can, do. Those who cannot, kibitz.”
You are here to tell a story not to produce a documentary. I, for one, enjoy your story telling.
Only wish I were able to tell a story one tenth so well. I know you are a big boy and well able to fight your own battles.
It just irks me to see you attacked in your own place. I apologize for getting out of line. Please accept my most humble apology.
Huh?
You’ve done nothing wrong.
I think of it as people using their own skills and experiences to help me improve my storytelling.
Besides, if no one posts corrective comments, then new readers might think I’m one of those
primadonna authors that deletes critical comments, like so many others do.
I don’t even mind if my readers post links to other webcomics that they enjoy!
NOT unarmed, I was wrong. I assumed he WAS a weapon. (Probably still is.) Nice piece.
Taking a hostage (in the historical sense) makes perfect sense here. And it’s not necessarily
durance vile, historically peacekeeping hostages sometimes married into the hostage-keepers eventually,
and the hope was that family ties would strengthen the peace. And Teresa will probably term it differently.
Petercat, Bill Mullins –
I am sorry if my reminiscing sounded as criticism – it was not – not intended so anyway.
I now understand, Bill, you consider it kibitzing is/as criticism. I never have. It will never be.
I never spoke up in a card game (yeah – I went and looked it up.)
Again, sorry.
As I said – Old Soldier’s bad habit – remembering out loud.
And Bill is correct – And the first thing learned in ROTC: Praise in public/Correct in private.
I have looked at DAZ . . . I can barely even spell it, much less make anything with it.
Thank you, Mr. Moore. That took guts to post. My understanding of kibitzing is that is not limited to cards.
I never went to ROTC but I did attend 8th AF NCO Leadership School and served as a Non-Commissioned Officer
for just under 8 & 1/2 of my 10+ years in service. One of the best bosses I ever had in civilian life was
a big fan of the “Praise in public: criticize in private.” principle. If you did something cool, Walt Isenhour
would tell the world about it. If you screwed up Walt would – quietly – call you into his office and
tell you precisely where, when, and how you screwed up. Then you would never hear about it again.
Hellova man, Walt Isenhour.
Not that I disagree, but how would anyone know that it was safe to correct
me in private if they didn’t see me accepting it in public?
Now, if anyone wants to be nasty, best do it in private.
I’ve had emails from people complaining that I don’t have enough XYZ123
representation in the comic, I just tell them that it’s a great idea, they should
start their own webcomic.
i’m with PC on this,, i want it public , so there is no. “well he said..”
also i’m horrible at checking my mail.. 🙁
and…
if at any time, you think i’m (bashing, kibitzing, ect..)… please let me know.!
i’m terrible at this wording stuff.. an that is NOT my intent.!
When I DO catch an error, I immediately jump to apology — in the classic sense.
If I had been the one to find the two different personal names for the receptionist,
I’d have been going “Let’s see — identical twins sharing the job?
One is her middle name or a nickname? What fits the contexts best?”
and then thrown that out as an “explanation”.
My style of humor again. No apology, current sense.
Some of the smartest people in the military are mid-grade NCOs.
Fortunately, I learned that early as a Butter Bar . . . .
Nope, no scars from it. . . 😀
It helped I was able to teach my NCO’s to look out for my tail as they would, and I did theirs.
That revolver in panel 8 looks like a Colt Python. They’re supposedly
the “standard”, but I don’t care for them. The limited sampling I’ve
done of two indicated that their triggers stack in double-action mode.
I’ll prefer an older Smith (1955 to 1985) any day. I shoot bowling pins
once a month, and among the revolver shooters I can’t recall but maybe
one Colt revolver in the last six years. Maybe, if that.
