| − | :::To make sure I went through all series and then made a detailed list of all types of series on the [[:Category:Comic series]] page. All "real" series are listed chronologically there and the type (five in one week/two over long time) are mentioned and specified. There is also know a detailed discussion on how strange this comic series release schedule is. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 23:44, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

| | Someone should make a character page for the time traveler dot dude. This is at least the third time xe has appeared.

| − | :No. As noted in the previous comic there is no reason to assume that previous dots are the same. The Category should be deleted. But later when finding out if there are more than these two comics to come a series category should be created with a good name not this one that has been used: Category:Comics featuring the floating sphere from the future... --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 19:28, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

| | So far the comics in this series have had the name pattern [noun] [field of science ending in -ology]. Too perfect to be a coincidence.

| − | :Yes I agree that this series is special, mainly because the strips are released consecutively, but not dayfly and secondly because the naming is completely different not like the series. Once the Friday comic is revealed to be either related or not, some good naming for this series should be invented and these facts about this kind of series deviation from other series should be mentioned there (and referenced from each comic). --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 10:01, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

| − | Any chance the human characters were mistaken in interpreting Future Dot's flood story as Noah's? It seems possible - perhaps equally likely - that Future Dot had found [[1190: Time]].

| − | Note: There shouldn't be any bandwidth problem in future: Windows 3000 will likely require 1TB just for boot sector. The problem wouldn't be not enough information, but too much information with hardly any way to determine what was important. -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 15:32, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

| − | Should we consider the future organism a new character, since it has appeared in two '''consecutive''' strips.

| − | :No, we should not make a new character page because anything or anyone appears twice. That is too little. But of course these two comics belongs together and should be made into a series. But let's wait and see if there are one more to come today Friday. The naming of the comic series is not clear yet as the names of the comics is not related.
