NP Comic for Saturday, November 12, 2022 Piano note pitch is based for a good portion on the length of the wires inside (also tension, which is how they're tuned, and some of the low keys are weighted with a wire wrap). Things that are called 'pianos' that are diminutive, like toy pianos, are generally not pianos. Every size reduction by 1/2 should shift the notes up one octave. this sounds like a reduction of two octaves, so you could still hear it and recognize the tune. The mechanical constraints of the tensioners and frame would be questionable, but these could have been compensated, left thick enough to do the job. Alternate materials is a possibility, but steel wire is used for a reason, able to be put into tension and not fail. Almost any other metal will be subject to eventual metal fatigue. Titanium should produce an even higher pitch. So, are Fry and Leila are implicated in the abduction? It is not the new school year, so not October, therefore no Oktoberfest, so no. I'm going to guess that George is not a fan of The Chicken Dance. Why would a chicken need a bed at all? Was Mirabel possibly a person transformed into a chicken? Not used to perching?

NP Comic for Tuesday, November 8, 2022 Nanase is channeling Susan and Diane. Check for the guard that happens to be a rooster. She ran off with him, flew the coop!

NP Comic for Thursday, November 3, 2022 George assumes Ellen is Elliot, wacky high jinks don't actually ensue. Also Elliot only appears in George's imagination. He really needs to walk into the store. Actually, George thinks Ellen is transgender; he doesn't know about magic transformations in general (probably assumes Cheerleadra is a special case as a superhero). Elliot appearing in the store, even later, should convince him he's wrong. Maribel, the chicken has quarters. That is weird. Maybe they have corn vending machines? She likes old school video games? Something like Frogger, but with a chicken? (thus providing yet another answer to the perennial question).

NP Comic for Tuesday, November 1, 2022 Chicken? Chicken? Chicken? Pfffft. Chicken! It's alive! Or at least was, recently, the current state of the chicken has yet to be determined. Frankly, if I wanted to hide a chicken, eating it would be a good option. The mayor, what with bribing judges and misusing public resources, is not exactly above board. This could be significant later. He's also not sharpest tool in the shed; 'security second to none' sounds rather extravagant for a 'prize winning chicken'. Also seems to jump to conclusions, albeit for RP railroad reasons; chickens disappear due to mortal men or animals all the time, security not withstanding. His world has rogues, who can get around security. His world also presumably has inside jobs. Also, individual feathers 'go missing' all the time. The chicken yard is littered with a few, always. They didn't grow there, they fell off of chickens. I like how Ellen uses their reaction, basically holds them accountable for casual remarks. Well, here's hoping they can rescue their plucky charge, and don't end up with egg on their faces.

NP Comic for Thursday, October 27, 2022 No one is that out of touch with role playing terms, are they? They are borrowed from other parts of our culture. 'Plot hook' existed long before D&D. Herding kittens isn't even particularly a role playing term, although it often applies. Working theory for my head canon, Nanase is just that sheltered by her mom.

NP Comic for Tuesday, October 25, 2022 Rich does not exactly flow with this. He comes across as mechanical. My impression is he is focused on 'winning the game'. I love George's reaction. The subtext I get is, "I don't care enough about what you're saying to have a real opinion about it."
-
NP Comic for Saturday, October 15, 2022 Rich's expression seems to invite a face punch. Am I wrong? (Yes, you are; he's actually inviting Ellen to blast him with her beam.) Later ... "The dragon offers to trade the MacGuffin for the shiny new paladin." "Hell, yeah, it's a deal!" "Yeah, if you're sure, you want him." "Do you want us to shine him up for you?"

NP Comic for Tuesday, October 11, 2022 Polka Face!

NP Comic for Saturday, October 8, 2022 "Stop stairing at me, George! I hate that!" "I'm a human rouge. My face is red."

NP Comic for Thursday, October 6, 2022 Ellen knows the difference between fantasy and reality. Their wanting to play a female RPG character does not mean they want to be transformed. She would know that. But why isn't one of them playing Conah, the Booberian?
-
NP Comic for Saturday, October 1, 2022 This is too odd. There is no way Rich has not run into dudes playing a female character before. Not even buying the 'another universe' argument.

NP Comic for Thursday, September 22, 2022 Kittens do not herd well. Let's hope she packs a cattle prod.

NP Comic for Thursday, September 1, 2022 "If he only didn't have a heart ...."

NP Comic for Thursday, August 25, 2022 Rich's logic circuits are overheating. I like George's smile in panel one, vaguely threatening. And of course, Ellen's, which isn't. The NP has gotten more interesting than the main story.

NP Comic for Saturday, August 20, 2022 Huh, George is socially adept, so why is he a loner? How does Justin know that about Nanase? It's come up in casual conversation before? I think "I'll help you win this <RPG>." is going into my bag of quotes to abuse. While in this context it indicates 'doesn't quite get the concept', 'I'm going to win this RPG' seems to be a hurdle some folks can't get past. The solution is, of course, "Rock falls, everybody dies."

NP Comic for Tuesday, August 16, 2022 ... comic makes the point that George is a loner, and Nanase has some yet unstated issue. The shadowy background figures in panel 2 are interesting. I guess that's a book cover? Back in the day, it might have been an LP. George does not strike me as a vinyl hipster.

NP Comic for Saturday, August 13, 2022 Gaming Yoda to the rescue! George is getting some positive face time again.

NP Comic for Tuesday, June 28, 2022 Is George reluctant to poke that particular bear, or bears in general? While particular bears may be more intimidating than the average bear, poking bears does not seem like a survival trait. One would venture to guess that the set {people who like to poke bears} would tend to be self limiting. At least with actual bears. Maybe she should have been named Jack?

NP Comic for Saturday, June 25, 2022 Surprisingly, it is 4:16 PM and no one had posted this yet. Discussing free dinner, I guess. Milkshake sounds good.

NP Comic for Saturday, June 18, 2022 George is working on painting himself into a corner. He's kind of an interesting character, but i am not getting what his deep motivation is. ... Doesn't trust people, isolates himself, thus somewhat lacking in social skills, so, instead of having a conversation and asking questions, he imagines how things are and gives his imaginings too much weight as a valid model of reality. Hmm, this explains so much, and not just about George ...

I was reading through The Secret of Sam for the umpteenth time and I came again to Grace and Sarah talking about how much Justin and Sam like talking about how bad the Star Wars prequels were. And that got me to thinking: Is that a clue that EGS is taking place before Episode VII was released? Or is this a perhaps happier alternate universe where Episode VII and (especially) Episode VIII were never made?And perhaps not Star Trek Discovery, which didn't even rate a mention in the NPs? Since EGS is a long-running comic that doesn't advance too far ahead in time, I can understand why too many references to pop culture might be wisely avoided, but I wish they weren't entirely ignored sometimes.
