Got my entry in exactly 2 minutes before the deadline. Here it is! My opponent also got theirs in, a full hour before their deadline, and it is much better than mine.

Both of these are excellent. I hope Mikal ends up in background scenes talking someone's ear off about the consonances.

When Discord Reigns In The Hearts Of Men, So Shall All Who Hunger Be Satisfied has a 99.999% pure heavy metal name and is such a goddamned adorable burger-slinger... and then the comic 100% lives up to that heavy metal name with an absolutely gruesome denouement. Holy poo poo that was great.

Argh, and I just realized that the short form of her name is loving WENDIS, like the restaurant. gently caress me what an amazing concept.

How do you possible shorten that to "WENDIS", like the restaurant? Even if you take just the first too words, "Discord" doesn't have a "dee" sound in it

You know, in the old World of Darkness setting, the Moon actually is haunted. A bunch of techno-wizards called the Technocracy had a moonbase on the Dark Side of the Moon and part of it blew up and the rest has been haunted since.

In the New World of Darkness setting the Moon was haunted with mutant super-spirits that were imprisoned there like Rita Repulsa since the Paleolithic.

Oh, so that's what happened. I didn't see an update on the site, so I didn't know what was going on. I just assumed Abbadon was drawing up another giant spread depicting the battle royale.

iirc they were originally named after the order in which they appeared and then some extra months got added or something.

GunnerJ posted:

They kept loving with the calendar, originally it was 10 months starting with March, then they added January and February, which were originally tacked on the end and then got moved to the front at some point. July and August were originally Quintilis and Sextilis as the fifth and sixth months, but they'd already hosed that up by moving January and February to the front, so they renamed them after Julius Caesar and Augustus. So we're left with the back end of the old count that no longer makes any sense.

Which is, let's be honest, going really well for me. I mean it speaks volumes to how much some people have internalized this comic in their life's story that a small disagreement over the honesty of a statement (it is provably false) is grounds for such vitriol.

The vitriol doesn't come from the inaccuracy of the statement. The vitriol comes from such pedantic comments about how someone who clearly works hard is not working hard enough for your free enjoyment.

They're the numbers after the one month that really counts, Martius, the month where winter is over and you can send back to armies marching on for more war, the one and only thing that matters in the heart of the Ancient Romans. Before the Julian calendar, the Romans used a system where years were only 355 days long, and to "catch up" then some years there was an "intercalary month" that was set between February and March. That means that you couldn't count from January. The years with the intercalary month lasted 377 or 378 days. Whether this month was added was a political decision, and therefore prone to abuse for political purposes (imagine the US Senate declaring that all years with a Republican in the White House last 378 days, while all years with a Democrat there last 355 days, that'll give you an idea of how seriously and rigorously the system was maintained).

When a certain Julius Caesar reformed Rome's calendar system to set it all to maths, this had the interesting side effect that, in order to realign the calendar year with the actual solar year, the year 46 BC was extended with two extra months, lasting a total of 445 days.

So in short, the ancient Romans were very bad at making a coherent and consistent calendar year, and that's why you December is the 12th month.
