Have there actually been comments sections? If so, it's a shame that they disappear when the new page comes up. On Monday there was an apparently normal comment section. |

There's a spoiler hidden in the word search but you have to down 8 5-Hour Energies to see it Several references to the comic can be built from those words. I think the most ominous was "Pin triple-goof on Tea." |

Yea that misaligned row made this a 30min puzzle for me. Other words I found (in addition to "dees" and "nutz") include "old" "goof" "wow" "hen" "me" "trot"* "pit" "due" "pin" "jet" "on" and/or "no" and "Tea" X2. But "me" is actually one of the words! |

The ones I saw were not normal (but "mock normal" instead of the obviously fake ones like for City Face 1-2). In the past someone always screencapped the comments by Tom and preserved them in the wiki or some place. |

Yeah, there were comments by Zimmy and Boxbot I think. I hope someone is saving these as well.

There's another me. There's a me in Tumbler and the me in Tea. Heh. |

Man, that misaligned row messed with my eyes. I swwar for a second, I saw 'Read more web comics'. Either that or 'Kill your family'... one of the two.

The obvious difference between these pigeons is that one of them has legs.
Perhaps the other pigeon locomotes via some other means?

One pidgeon is from Alabama, the other one is from Arkansas. That's another difference right there.

Hmmm, well it seems like city face is looking forward, while the 2nd pigeon is looking... straight, at us.

1 - Rump on the back of the lower pigeon not present on City Face.
2 - Lower pigeon has no legs.
3 - ? ? ?
4 - Profit - hold on wait, I did this wrong, let me backtrack
3 - 2 black strips on the lower pigeon.
4 - I'unno, beak or something.

4 - I'unno, beak or something. Beak on lower one seems longer and more pointy. Heads are shaped a bit differently too... top penguin's head never extends beyond its neck in size; bottom one's extends forward some. Top penguin has no feathers.. all smooth! Bottom drawn much more carefully, except for lacking legs....  |

Is "Thjis" intentional? It's probably pretty hard to type with talons instead of fingers.

Re: 4 down Gannet fits so I stuck that in there. Is "Thjis" intentional? It's probably pretty hard to type with talons instead of fingers. I'm guessing it was not intentional. |

Spotted the spelling mistake!
"Thjis" is clearly meant to be spelled "Kolento".

The Eglamore in front is missing his sword, the Eglamore in back is not missing his Rogat Orjak because it is in front.

Yep, I guess that was what he meant. Kudos on the obscure ref. (I should have actually gone back and re-read those pages instead of relying on my increasingly faulty memory; the longer the comic gets, the more things I forget.) I have more of a problem with 3 and 9. 3 should be pigeon but 9 is most likely hat. Is this the spelling error Tom mentioned? Would also be nice if someone knew what a baby pigeon is called #5 across A baby pigeon is a squab. #9 across I believe it's "toe," a ref to the missing toe on the one pigeon. |

Circle Time:
Hey City Face, there must be a tasty treat in that tube right behind you. You just need to reach really far inside to find it.

I dunno, city face. That spilt soft drink looks pretty sweet. But that is better for nectar birds, not for pigeons!

Post by Sauzels on Nov 7, 2016 13:20:15 GMT
I knew that; just having a goof. I'd guess 9 Across was toe, and I'm pretty sure the spelling error was Thjis. And apparently I was "right" about it being "intentional". |

This one (Circle Times) feels... significantly darker than the other five. I hope this is not a trend for the rest of the week! ._.
