Chapter Break Survivors

[Sunflower]

Eeee!  I've "earned my stripes." 

For those who overlook instructions as easily as I do, the chapter-break medals are plugged into your profile  like flags that indicate languages.

Type in : chap3 :, : chap4 :, etc., only omit the spaces between the colons and "chap3".

I badgeded! (I had to modify some stuff to make them fit )

[kahli]

Um... how exactly do I add them to my signature?   

It took me a moment to figure out but I just highlighted them like you would text then right clicked the little badges to copy and paste them to my profile in another tab.

yessss finally, i love these

I'm so happy I joined right before Reynir showed up and we learned his name, because that was one intense fandom experience

[P__]

whoop whoop whoop!


only these few for me

I just miss out on the Book 1 badge... but a total of 6 isn't bad at all

Same! It feels slightly odd that to begin with there was no Reynir, only Braidy, and that he might be hiding in a box to join the team or [insert a billion wild theories].

[Mélusine]

The ribbons are now live!

Thank you !

Yeah! Now that people are adding the badges, it seems like a lot of people joined the fandom right before chapter 6 actually.
But it's super weird to think that new and future fans will get, like, immediate reynir, he's already there in the character page, you can see his name and gender and profession and everything already, you've missed out on that high-strung tension chapter 6 brought with everyone expecting braidy around every corner....... reynir feels like such a natural part of the comic now.

then again, this is probably how veteran fans feel about people who've joined after sigrun and mikkel were introduced, too.

Can confirm. Doc and Captain feel like such a long time ago now. There wasn't such a hype about them as there was about Braidy, though - smaller reader base, and of course, Reynir was the last human crew member to be added which made him very important.

That's why I speak about all the others characters but not Reynir when I try to convince friends/little sister to read ^^ With a "they're five but could have some surprise... but I won't tell anything, you'll see" or something like that.

It strikes me that the people with the book 1 elite ribbon have done an inhuman amount of waiting for that same moment.

These are so cool!

Dig back into the start of chapter 1, and you find people getting excited that they finally know the names of 'scout-guy' and 'mechanic'. It's like a different world...

Heh, in a way I'm a bit sad I never got to experience that... I mean it was awesome when I got to that part but I wasn't actually waiting for it. What bets on the derpcat's arrival causing a similar stir? I mean we already got plenty of theories on that one as well.

Lul I do the exact same. It's like Reynir's supposed to be a surprise.

Oh man, that's true... wait, is that two and a half years? They really deserve their elite ribbon.

this is what I would be doing, except I don't actually try to make anyone else read SSSS. it just happens. I am the SSSS maelstrom and people who spend too much time in my vicinity get sucked right in, I don't even try, and I can't keep Reynir a secret when I'm the embodiment of the *spills pictures of character everywhere* meme..........

what is funny, though, is that by "everyone in my vicinity" i mean internet vicinity, like tumblr and facebook. my parents who follow me on neither, don't even know what SSSS is. I'm not keeping it a secret from them or anything, but I haven't talked about SSSS to them and they have no idea how much time and energy I spend on this fandom, aha ha ha...... when I was drawing the Norwegian 'sonas for 17th may, mom peeked over my shoulder like "what are you drawing?" and I had no idea how to even begin my response. How do I explain I am drawing the self-insert characters of people on a fanforum for a postapocalyptic fantasy webcomic i have been dedicating my life to for the past two months or so
