A brief summary of what the mayor wrote vs what actually happened -dragonweirdo
Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

MemberWell that explains why Marshal has so many misadventures...Not that she targeted marshal in particular but accidentally roped him into a role he in reality is ill fit to play. That tome is insidious since it doesnt seem to take away people's feelings or will, but basically bends fate so that certain outcomes will happen.
In other words, its a horny Monkey's Paw.

MemberThese pages are BEYOND IMPORTANT. Without them we are left to believe that ALL details were written by the mayor and that no one has had any free will, much less the comparison of what was written and the outcome.

MemberThis is why it is important to know the personalities of the characters you put in your fanfics.

MemberI'm not sure if we should include supplemental material in the pool, though. these aren't part of the comic's Twitter thread and also are in a totally different format from the everything else.
I don't see a problem with including these as child posts to the page where it says that what she wrote and the outcomes weren't 1-to-1 like how these were originally posted. that's what we've been doing every other tangential thing.

MemberMaybe we could do what some other comics do and make it a copyright tag?
Daneasaur
MemberMany people didn't even SEE these pages because they weren't apart of the comic pool, if the insanely low rating on them is any indication, and as I pointed out, a LACK of seeing these specific outcomes is needed because someone like me didn't even NOTICE that the "cool marshal" was even intended to be marshal.
Making them child posts has a high chance of them being overlooked and I really don't want that to happen.
EDIT: And who is tracking me down to downvote me? Because the plot straight from the comic is not clear without these pictures and it can lead someone to REALLY get the wrong impression about the story up to now?
Downvoters, make up your mind; do you want to downvote me because I got the wrong impression of the story or do you want to downvote me because I insist these pages are given more exposure so that it doesn't happen to more readers?

Memberhmm... well, for the sake of having them bump the pool/show up in Re6 pool subscriptions maybe it'd make sense to keep them in there until the next update, and we can remove the posts after that to retain the intended flow of the series. for people reading through this comic later, the child posts showing up below should be fine.
Daneasaur
MemberI think that's at least an acceptable compromise. It will get readers of the comic up to speed and since this is VERY important story clarification.

MemberYeah makes sense, +1
