How would everyone feel about some random organised at one time vote for Twokinds? Like we all organised a date in which we do some massive community vote?
Just out of interest?

I would think that the server would crash if alot of people voted at the same time.

I think it's worth a try. Twokinds is in 17th place at the moment. It should be at least in the top ten, in my opinion.

Even if we don't do a massive community vote this topic serves as a good reminder of the whole vote thing.

I'd do it.

TwoKinds being so low in the ranking lately really, really blows. With the release of Shadowgirls, TwoKinds pretty much got booted out of the top ten. In fact, most of the old top ten are missing, replaced with stuff that used to hang around the twenties position.

I'll go for it, be sure to plan far enough ahead that everyone gets a chance to notice that we are actually trying to organize something though.

So a date and time? And use signatures to advertise?

Wouldn't it be better to just try and get a lot of people to vote everyday? I don't know how one small burst will do too much in the long run.

If you are going to organize something, though, do it on the first or second day of the month after votes are reset. That would be the easiest way to get Twokinds in the top ten, but it likely wouldn't be a permanent thing without some support.

Twokinds is a good comic, but the lack of regular updates probably hurts the ranking. I don't blame Tom for it, I know he's busy and other things come before the comic, but it may be hard to get enough votes to put the comic back in the top ten. The comic is over 700 votes behind the number 10 spot, and that may grow as towards the end of the month.

The lack of updates and/or voting incentives really hurts TwoKinds' ranking, but I can't see how Tom could ever have the time to put stuff up for incentives. Maybe he could either put the recoloured pages up as weekly incentives, or a panel of the upcoming comic? Or the unaltered sketch that was originally scanned?

That's actually a pretty good idea. I'd love to see some of his sketches from previous pages.
