    Yeah, Tedd's rarity is still complete speculation at this point. It was just a thought that the spells themselves aren't special, but the fact that Tedd can use them when he shouldn't be able to is the special bit. Yeah I wouldn't expect all magic users to have traveled from the griffin's half of the world. My theory was that Noriko's family could have been and yeah this would likely have happened several generations ago. Obviously Nanase's mom knows more about the family history than Nanase does so she's likely our best chance at finding out about it. As it is, it seems clear that in the griffin's half of the world, royal families are still a big deal whereas in this half (which would reflect our world too) world leaders are mainly elected or rise to power through military action, in much of the world, the idea of a royal family has faded quite a bit, even the British Monarchy doesn't hold the same level of power as it did a hundred years or so ago, the media seems to treat them more like celebrities than royalty really. Someone claiming to have royal ancestry would likely get a "cool, but don't expect to be able to walk into a country and have anyone bow down to you." As for why the Kistune family would have come to this half of the world, there are many possibilities, the family was usurped by another powerful family, some disaster was approaching and they took refuge here and some never went back, or one of the members came over on some mission and fell in love with a local and decided to stay. I got the impression that Wolf and Cranium were still considered rookies back in those flashbacks when they encountered Pandora and Lavender was probably the first Uryuom Wolf had met. They've probably became more privy to some of the finer details in DGB since then considering their loyalty to Edward.

    I like how the filename has "egsforreals" in it now. Dan actually fixed it pretty quick as I had thought he was still out cruising around town when I sent him the question on tumblr.
  3. The Association Game

    I'm usually a steak and potatoes guy, but sometimes I'll have fish just for the halibut.

    The fact that I mentioned it should automatically make it mine! MWAHAHAHAHA! ::coughs::
  5. What Are You Ingesting?

    Did a check, and yeah plain M&Ms will have a "may contain peanuts" warning due to being made in the same facility as the peanut versions and there being a chance that either peanut dust or even a stray peanut M&M could end up in a package of plain M&Ms.
  6. Videogame Thread

    Anyone playing Stardew Valley? Anyone that's ever played a Harvest Moon game would thoroughly enjoy it. I had a bit of a ragequit moment the other day when I accidentally placed a cherry bomb next to a chest full of crafting materials.... lol
  7. What Are You Ingesting?

    That really depends, obviously the peanut and peanut butter ones are, but the regular ones could be made in a separate peanut free area if the company really wanted to, milk is probably unavoidable though.

    Yeah it's public, I asked through the EGS tumblr which he responded through it, then reblogged on his personal tumblr.
  9. Story: Friday March 11 2016

    It was Andrea that said that, not Tara, Andrea is likely the standard lion based griffin as her tail has mainly short fur then a fluffy tuft at the end. I'd be more inclined to think that if Tara could tell that Ellen's magic potential was not the same as Elliot's, but she likely sees that Ellen isn't a true biological twin, but hasn't seen anything like her before so doesn't actually know why so saying she's different is the best she can do to describe her, I would imagine if Tara and Andrea saw Grace, they'd see her Uryuom energy is different magic potential as well. We know Edward's magic analysis wand pointed at Grace would give a false report of her being awakened but it's clear that Edward and likely everyone else in DGB knows the difference between Uryuom "magic" energy and human magic energy.

    And he missed an opportunity to find out if he could surf webs by not fighting the spider vampire.
  11. http://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=2165 Alright, so it didn't occur to Nanase that Elliot being in superhero form would technically be a different person that she needed to focus on.
  12. http://www.egscomics.com/egsnp.php?id=431 Looks like we're going to start winding things down now. As far as Dan's commentary about MFV# vs MV-F#, In all honesty, I agree that if your going to tweak the form that much, you'd be better off creating a new form set separate from the MV form, otherwise it'd probably be less confusing to just create an MV6, MV7 and so on with the feminine touches.
  13. What Are You Watching?

    This is the one:
  14. What Are You Watching?

    Yeah I saw that, rather amusing how they reacted to his mii: "Whatever gender you are Dan, you're beautiful." Judging by Dan's comment about that on Twitter, sounds like he was feeling like Tedd after learning the word "gender fluid"

    If it got cut off, the copyright date "2013, Dan Shive - egscomics.com" would have been cut off as well, being at the bottom of the page. Edit: Got a response from Dan. So I guess he was trying to remove the bit at the top of the page about the "Story comics Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday" As to why he has a regular and double sized version of the page, my guess would be if he ever makes a book he has the page already formatted for it?
  16. NP Friday March 11, 2016

    I'm not sure how it's translated, but I just looked at the filename for today's story page and it's 1457678622 and I'm guessing that a higher number would mean a more recent upload so the edited "there be whales here" page would have been uploaded after today's comic page.
  17. Story: Friday March 11 2016

    Not necessarily, Tara was able to see through Elliot's enchantments, as well as see Ellen's, Nanase's and Diane's magic potential, Edward also had ways of analyzing a spell. Tedd's ability to analyze spell effects might not be the rare thing but instead the fact that he's able to do such a thing is the real mystery.
  18. NP Friday March 11, 2016

    Huh....well I asked him on tumblr about it, I honestly don't see why he'd need to make such a change.
  19. NP Friday March 11, 2016

    You know, I was going to say that the page has always been like that, but then Stature's link made me realize that I had seen that version before as well when I did my first run through the archive over a year ago...huh...
  20. NP Friday March 11, 2016

    Then Sarah's reaction to being thought of as a sister would make no sense. The only reason she'd react that way is after Elliot had told her he thought of her as a sister when they broke up.
  21. Story: Friday March 11 2016

    I know all to well about pronunciation, I had a bad habit of correcting other students in early elementary school on pronouncing words. I had an unusual knack for being able to look at a word and figure out how to say it. I wasn't perfect, but it was enough to annoy my classmates.

    Don't know, but can you imagine him playing Flappy Bird?
  23. Last Post Wins

    ::walks in. looks around, walks out:: ::walks back in:: Actually anyone remember who had the last post in the old forum? Because I'd consider that a win for them.
  24. What Are You Ingesting?

    Pizza, then butterscotch ripple ice cream.

    I can see GPS function being able to give Elliot better sense of direction, he wouldn't have had any issue flying to the bell tower. Looking at a qr code would scan it and he'd see the information from it, probably better than Tedd can "see" magic. Texting someone might just involve thinking about what he'd say and focusing on what phone number to send it to.
