Wow, I didn't even notice! Guess I'm a scout now. Thanks everyone, and congrats to Alkia for reaching the safe zone!

Woo-hoo, another promotion fast-tracked through participation in the Chapter Filler event! 
Today we have thegreyarea attaining the rank of Scout as well!  If you haven't checked out Grey's massive picture of the crew chilling in a cosy cabin, you owe it to yourself to check it out.

Congrats, Grey!

Meanwhile, I'm still barely a Safe Zone Citizen... I guess I just suck at forum.

RanVor. No.

You don't suck at forum (is it even possible to suck at forum?) - it's just that different people are gonna post at different paces. Anyway, you're what? 26 posts away from scout yourself? This isn't a race, anyway. And if you prefer being active in other places (like the comments) instead of the forum, or just hanging around without posting, that's fine! You don't suck. Seriously.

Keep Looking is right, RanVor. Take it from someone who's both posted 30 times in one day, and gone 30 days without so much as looking at the forum - there is no wrong way to engage. It's not a race, it's not a competition: it's just a bunch of people coming together over a comic they enjoy! You don't suck. As long as you're having a good time here, you're doing forum right  <3

(P.S. congratulations to everybody who's been promoted recently!)

Thanks Wave, Keep looking, Ran and Ana! I've noticed this yesterday, and today they are already pushing me to scout in the dangerous Silent Lands! I promise to do my best, but since I can't scout areas that are relevant to the comic (unless Minna decides to put the team in a ship to Portugal) I'll try to check areas and buildings that look like they could be in the comic, photograph them and post it somewhere in the Forum (suggestions are welcomed). I may even try to talk Lalli in helping me to develop a magic filter to see if there are trolls or beasts inside the buildings during the day (of course I don't want to do nocturnal night missions when things are wandering free...)

Ran, I second each word Ana wrote. This is no competition. My posting rate suddenly increased a lot due to the "monopoly game" and now with the "chapter break filler", but before that I spent months barely posting at all, mainly because I feared that I would get involved and spend too much time around here. As usual, my instinct was right :) But I managed to find time to keep thing balanced (the many books in my reading list, however, disagree with that last part...)

I'm sure that we will see many great things from you, be it here, in the comments or elsewhere. And soon you will be scouting too, and we can exchange survival tips :D

Congrats Grey, and Keep Looking, and Alkia!
And thanks everyone who congratulated me back a couple weeks ago! I guess I vanished for a bit there while I was...uh...ranging around in research papers? Yeah.

And don't worry, Ran! We all enjoy your posts as frequently or infrequently as they come, and we're happy to see you around when you do post. Plus, the Safe Zone is a pretty good place to be! It means you're safe and in the zone~
Butter good.

Scout RanVor reporting for duty! I may be slow, but I'm catching up! Thank you all!

Fun (more or less) fact:
Spoiler: show
it was late night when I made that last post, and I wasn't even sure I wanted to do it, but then I saw my post counter and it said 249...
