Veja getting strategically smart.

This is the last week of April. The month ends on FRIDAY, so we have 5 days of voting left.

To review: the first full week of April was 4/4 - 4/10, GRATZ pulled 88 votes, for an average 12.57 votes/day, and ended at #199 on the TopWebcomic List.

Second week: 4/11 - 4/17, the comic had 77 votes, average of 11.0 votes/day, ending at #201 on the list.

Last week: 4/18 - 4/23, GRATZ docked 80 votes, slight improvement, for an average 11.42/day, ending the week at #198.

I know the comic has...rrrrr...yo-yo'd a bit in it's history. But this seems an odd trend after seeing it soar so spectacularly last month. It really is easy to visit the page once a day, click on the "VOTE TWC Top 100" button, answer the verification question, and that's it. Every vote can push GRATZ in front of new reader's eyes, and introduce them to the work we all love so much.

I'm doing my part Maryalee!:) Really folks get out there and vote we did so well last month and I was hoping we would climb to new heights.

I try to vote twice, mobile data and wifi connection. If anything, I remember to do it once.

I've had some extra demands on my time, and have missed a day and a half; however, I created another sockpuppet today so I can nw vote *three*, count 'em, 3 times a day when I do vote. Let's see whether that works in May.

I was wondering what the actual count was over the last few months. Is it possible that other comics are voting more so Gratz isn't ranking as high?

That's an interesting thought, I haven't been as persnickety with trendings lately; however, I did notice after the first of the year that there had been a shake-up in the top 10 comics. The ones that had traditionally rode the top of the list got knocked down a bit, and I saw some new additions. I would need to take a harder look at it, and time has not been my friend lately.

Plot twist: They already know and they'll be waiting for them.

Nice batch of photos. No Cer'veja though. D= If you run out of ideas, you could also do past characters like Brewer or usually absent ones like Xura.

Lingerie Xura, that's an idea.

...What?

Xura in lingerie, I would catch hell for that from my mom. She almost disowned me for the Tirea hula pick back in January.

Tyfariel 30th Apr 2021, 3:07 AM edit delete reply

Hula Tirea? What about the dark sorcerer Tirea? Both were pretty PG, but the second one seems more tantalizing.

Lackinganame 30th Apr 2021, 9:21 AM edit delete reply

I also got hell for that as well. My mom even ignored that sweet skull throne! But given that people knew what genre of fantasy I was doing I think it worked out quite well.

I've had a hard time trying to come up with stuff for Cer'veja. His personality shows through by being very repressed when compared to Arua and Tirea so it's a little hard to display in a drawing with out a contrast. Also girl pics seem to do better on Instagram.

We have just 3 days left in April, the month ends Friday night.

PLEASE KEEP VOTING EACH DAY.
