Dude is struggling just as much as me >_<

In so much media, things would have worked out so much better is someone just told the person the thing. Danni, good job telling the person the thing.

Also, Aneeka, thanks for taking the time to do things with quality while taking care of yourself.

Danni is my favorite. The competition is fierce, but she keeps pulling ahead :3

Should the first move have E4 instead of E5?
(I suppose E5 could be due to Dude struggling.)

So so proud of you, Aneeka <3 You did it. Now take a breath and take a moment, center yourself, continue when ready. You can do this. You're *doing* this. You're gonna be okay. <3 You're amazing. And we're here for you. Everyone is cheering for you, whatever you need.

Okay let’s not talk back to the selfimportant ignoramus just yet..
Deflect, distract, delay.
I mean it’s the peaceful option.
And maybe Bandit simply hasn’t earned enough trust yet to deserve being called out.

Anyway yes how -does- he know?
Because I don’t know any such thing :]

The chess moves seem like opening plays, either for one player or for two players interchanging moves..
..but no peasant can move 3 steps in one go, hmm.

I believe it is called the Italian opening. White opens with E2 to E4, black responds with E7 to E5, followed by white G1 to F3, black responds B8 to C6, white moves F1 to C4. My guess would be the error came from grabbing black’s response endpoint instead of White’s opening endpoint, since they are only 1 square apart.

Ahh that makes total sense, yes, when trying to get only white’s sequence from a black/white sequence description that mistake could easily happen in that way. Explanation achieved, thanks ^.^

I never studied chess, just played it a fair bit in school. Opening for the bishops and queens and getting the knights out also makes a fair bit of sense so I could recognize it as far as being a valid sequence 🙂

So many quetions, what had actually happened to Danni,
what really happened to The Dude in Shanghai, how does Bandit know this isn’t “bad hacker stuff” (other then the global lack of programmers)?
I’m so excited to see what happens next 🙂

And Aneeka, great work keeping to your schedule, I think you are doing great, and I hope things are getting a little easier 🙂

Yaaay! Yes, they’re not exactly the most coherent of people at times, but they’ve been through a lot, so I’m cutting them all some slack. (Except I still occasionally want to smack Bandit upside the head.) These various quirks *should* be there in people who’ve survived the End of the World! Loving it!

It’s has -> This has

Thanks for the comic.

So happy to see this story continued. and to hear that Aneeka is back.

Well, I had thought the idea of a bunch of Esones might calm the Dude down (you know cause they can get them and NOT be on the verge of being eliminated); but logic has no effect against a panic attack.

Welcome Back Aneeka – GREAT WRITING!!!!
