Holiday Giveaway!
I am going to be away from my cintiq (and tablet) until Wednesday or Thursday and as such will be unable to get to work on a comic until at least the middle of the week. So for the sake of getting something up on-time(ish) here is an ever so wintery and festive picture of Commander boxing a polar bear lovingly traditionally rendered in copic markers on an 8.3×11.7 sheet of marker paper. And in the spirit of the season, I want to give it away!
Contest is over! Congratulations to Roastsnail, who guessed 210 and came closest to the number (211)!
Since I hate organizing raffles (and question their legality without proper permits anyway) leeeeeeet’s just say I’m thinking of a number between one and two thousand (whole numbers, no decimals – I know this used to say “even” but I meant that I wanted people to stop using decimals, because that would potentially draw this out to infinity. I thought I had edited the post an hour or so after making it, but apparently it didn’t go through. Sorry for any confusion) and the person who guesses closest before I get the next strip up gets the drawing. If two people are equally close I’ll give it to the first one who got it without going over. Please don’t put up more than one number once per day (it’s not fair if someone just puts up one post with a couple thousand numbers or spams the page with two thousand guesses at once).
I will ship overseas! I just want to do something nice for you guys for sticking around for pretty damn close to three years and making this comic as successful as it’s been. Just make sure if you’re posting a guess you use your real email, or else I won’t be able to get in touch with you. And please don’t try to cheat, I really want to give everyone as equal an opportunity as possible! Thanks guys, and happy holidays, whatever you might be celebrating this time of year (even if it’s just a couple days off from work).
A SIDE NOTE please try to avoid picking numbers other people already have. You can do a quick sweep to see if yours has already been posted by using ctrl(or command on Macs)+f to search the text on most browsers. This’ll go a whole lot faster if people stop guessing 42, 1337, and 666 over and over again.

I’m trying to vote for the number 12, but it seems there are 1662 results for “12”, so I’m just going to hope to what ever deity is watching over me that no one else voted for 12 (TWELVE).

Come on, psychic powers… Ohm… 1537.
I doubt I’ll win, but hey, why not try?
I mostly want this because I want to study the way Coelasquid did it. I own some Copics, and I am having trouble with them. Perhaps a tutorial on using Copics is in order?
1843
How about 449?
Thanks for all of your hard work on this excellent comic! Happy Holidays and enjoy your time off!

1984
-Going for a literature reference.
1384!
Worth a shot. 1564

1986
941
151, naturally. number of original pokemon! although if coelasquid has a favorite pokemon i probably won’t be able to guess it… time to pray
If I had to venture a guess, I’d say it was Gyrados. (AKA Mr. Fish)

1333.
PS
My money’s on the bear going down in round three from a headbutt.
388 u v u
I will guess 1777, because it has lots of sevens in it. And you may appreciate us sticking around for three years, but I can say without reservation that it’s been a joy, and that I hope to have that joy for years to come. Merry Christmas!
754!

What a fantastic piece of art you have done, Coelasquid. Like always.
Thanks for the giveaway and for all the great comics! :) I pick 748.
1924
428
280
1374. And these words are here beause apparently just putting a numbered answer in makes it too similar to a previous comment =S
That probably means someone took that number already.
387?
I’ve loved this comic, thank you for making it for these three years.
1768
Commander is definitely gonna win that fight. It’s not even close.
Im going for 1816
i’m guessing 1536. because that’s the size of my pagefile.
and happy holidays to you!
It’s 1789
Definitely.
75
82 is my guess. I would love to frame this up next to my painting of a snow covered ox
I say 1370
269
1342. oh man oh man oh man :) :)
I’d have to say 1374.
343

1257!
1375
1225
I want that picture so badly.
1224
Didn’t notice it had to be even.
I was thrown off by that, too, but I think she just wants to avoid weird decimal or fractional numbers.
1462… and merry Christmas
432!
Eh why not, let’s give it a shot…1555.
336
1374
Also love this week’s picture, copic markers for the win :D.
1524

God, I can’t believe it’s been that long, I remember my friend recommending me this comic back in 2010, it seems only yesterday that I first started reading this.

756 I hope it’s that!

Damn, both my first choice and my backup got taken, curse my lateness. Guess I’ll go for the median.
1336
1742 Even leaves out a lot of favourite numbers.
255.
Insert Christmas greetings here. (I would do it more normally, but the system keeps blocking me for being too similar.)
373
998
That polar bear looks intense!
1023. awesome strip and i love this concept! great job
629
Otherwise, thanks again for yet another year of quality comics.
1532
I looked through all to make sure and didn’t see it so 1345.
Well, at least I hope it’s not there. It’s hard to tell with 100+ comments already.;;
My guess is: 22
Love the comic! Been following it for a while. This is my first time commenting though. Good luck everyone and Happy Holidays!
22
824

1773
Straight up 25. Because Christmas.
1368
1337 – Just because.
Also, I love this comic, so keep it up!
1980!
I’m gonna go with the dimensions of the paper for this.
My guess is 8.3×11.7 = 97.11.
One thousand, four hundred and seventy three. Spelled out to make it more literary.
(1473 in case you use ctrl+f and I get overlooked because I thought that I was being clever)
816
1742
[wow, people really don’t take in an entire post, do they?]
Awesome job btw, truly a masterpiece to have in the living room. Seriously, I’d hang it in the living room.
1829
633
633
1248
937
1734. Fingers crossed.
I’ll shoot for 1338. Why not?
538, and happy holidays
692 would be my guess
1421 !!
1554! Who knows maybe you like that beer too! Love your comics!
1991
879. :D
56! 56! Why you no good 56in’… Now I can’t stop thinking about it!
52!
I seem to be having trouble posting my guess for today, but it is 52 ^^;;
372
117
2000? IDK, you should make it up to 20k at least – we’ll run out of numbers quickly! :P
Rollin’ my lucky numbers: 919
Happy , everyone. :)
856 !
Threeve.
1942
1186
1,221

1425.
I also put 20 on the Commander.
Sorry, no one’s gonna bet against you. We all know he will win. It’s only a polar bear, not a giant super mecha polar bear of doom.
On second thought, CB would beat that too.
442. It’s got a real Golden Compass feel to it. Nice of the bear to use gloves.
1739! Merry Christmas!
992
I was already having an awesome Christmas, but this picture just added another level of greatness to the day.
I’ll try….816
85!
118!
number of the bus that I seem to be using a lot lately, may as well
1369 Ooooo, please let it be me!
12
423……. i hope i win! Want Want Want Want!
1737
1335. strip/post number today. :P
1892
lets go with 1468
283
1452
1752
1389
1047
fourteen hundred (1400)
1665!
999
My bet is 755
I pick…3!!!!
421 love your artwork btw
1709
I tried to make a list of all numbers entered for reference, but gave up about a third in, there were too many numbers :P
Just a warning, though: llepsgnilaeh, someone chose 1 before you, so you can’t possibly win.
Davis, joaograms, Saryuko, DrWhoCares, YourOnlyAngel, Regular Polyhedra: same goes for you, someone picked 42 before you.
You’d think more people would ctrl+F the number they were thinking of before they posted…
Some people didn’t? Weird.
To be fair, it’s pretty hard to look for “1”.
1330
1887!
770!
1596
427.
<3 this comic.

I’m gonna saayyyyyy
1012
213??
303
1150?
Hapy hollidays, BTW.
I guess 27
A thousand-and-six
Gonna go with the dice… 794.
That’s an awfully large bear, but I am sure Commander will assert dominance in the end.
1584
760
1356
1580! =)
1806
Excellent pic!
1,469 is my guess.
I’m going to guess 1800. Not sure if you will be up to the challenge to read through all of the numbers though. :P
I just need to command+f search the text for the correct number every few hours.
Ah. That… is remarkably simple. Plus I just realized someone already put 1800… so Let’s say my guess is 1801 instead.
1280
93?
1247
1777
Hmmmmmmmmmmm 1624
567?
45!
1963
Love the comic, hope you have a brilliant Christmas!
Gah, it looks amazing! Might as well take a shot, I guess.:)
1978.
Uh, let’s see- someone’s taken 1224 (several someones- I guess it was an obvious number), and 217 isn’t even so…1722?
Oh also, Merry Christmas, and thanks for making such an awesome comic!
686
I guess 1,187.

688
great now I gotta find out who on earth that person was. damn curiosity.
134, GO!
42
1338
5
1632
(bashed hand against keyboard to get a 4 digit number! THE SCIENCE OF GUESSING!)
1280 :D
Has to be 1242
Surprised nobody’s done 77 yet. Their loss, my pick.
965 ♥ Happy Holidays lovely.
1983
Im going to go with 823,
707
1 :D
1990 c’mon year of my birth!
1768
793! If my Ctrl+F is working properly, nobody’s taken it yet. It seems a number of people haven’t checked beforehand. :P
Merry Christmas to you and your great comic!
49!
88
614
1298
624! :D
1988
339
Holy cow, that looks kickass…
1427! _o/
1725
manliest picture ever
hmmm… 907
1214
1482
1956
2
1967
Put me down for 392
My guess is this: 1492
514
So many numbers! I am amused (easily amused too) at all the repeats. 1337, 42, 1 are enormously popular (in this manor, squire).
1215 :)
X!
Where X is the number you’ve been thinking
(That’s not cheating, right?)
My guess is 1950
612
1777
Also, Commander vs Canada
1764
2010. It’s the year this comic started, and it’s the year I’ve become a silent, content fan.
Keep up the good work :3
umm.thats 10 to high halcyonicwolf
Oops…
1492 then >w<
1701
Yay for Star Trek: NG on Netflix! :D
47! :D
That bear knows it’s over
first time posting a comment, been reading the comic for ages. Fresh off random.org, my guess is: 1860
64. My Dad’s age. Good luck to everyone.
HalcyonicWolf: “a number between one and two thousand”
1457
833
1394.
233
number 13, a more distrusted number than it should be
this pic reminds me of a coke commercial.
Im rooting for the bear,by web comic logic hes the underdog.
Not so distrusted that a lot of folks chose it before you (see Remzar, for example).
084
42 Why not the answer to life?
1549
You, sir, are a legend! I guess 793.
Damn! 793 was taken and I didn’t even notice. Er, can I change to 783?
Ctrl+f hates me. 791.
1437 is my guess
526. I really hope no one already guessed that one.
527.
42 :)
498
1658
Gonna guess 672
Happy xmas and such
947
1987
42
17
I’m gonna say….
13
and tell you that I have enjoyed your comic immensely and will be an avid reader for as long as you choose to continue. Thanks for being an awesome fellow Canadian!
333
Well, 1984 and 1955 are both taken, that’s the book and Back to the Future one and two…
So 1885!
1404. Love the comic, would love the print!
649
And btw, Coela, you probably already noticed this, but just in case, a number of people have been putting commas in their guesses if it’s a 4-digit number, and at least one spelled it out without just typing the number itself. Something to be mindful of since I’d hate to see someone who guessed a number first fair and square end up not winning because their number wasn’t easily searchable…. ^_^;;;
1881
563!!
843 is my number of choice.
1506 is my guess!
9742. Just ‘cos.
(this number is not found between one and two thousand)
Let’s go with 1432.
1140
Coin toss says I use 1569.
I was gonna say 333, but that’s been taken, so I’ll go with 334.
Price is Right Strategy: Flawless.
1006. Because it hasn’t been guessed yet.
Bah! Except it has, but not in easy ctrl+f findable form. Fine, 1002 then.
My guess is 1822. I also want to wish Coelasquid a Happy Holiday and thank you for the great comics.
400
1027 !
326
719!
1686
interesting which numbers or general vicinities you see far more guesses in than others
198
196. I got a good feeling about it.
1993
1134 ! Merrys to you!
Pi
1328!
975
678
529. this will really up my room’s manly points
1138
I guess 789.
221
1453
68
494
1042.
Merry Christmas, hope you got the best gifts!
1134
Sorry, it took awhile for my comment to go through. If I can, I guess 345.
The next person who doesn’t use ctrl+F (or the Mac equivalent) to see if their number is free has to fight the loser of the Commander/Polar Bear match!
1702
1312
1245, for giggles :3 I really want this :O
I’ll go with 1444
404
734!
1180
487 and also that is a piece you have done. Boxing a polar bear classic!
I pick 753 :)
Awesome comic you have here. I also like guessing randomly. 1787
1346
846! and happy holidays!
716, why not. Also, any chance of this in wallpaper form? I would love to have the commander boxing a polar bear on my desktop.
I’ll go with 1123. My money’s totally on the polar bear (at least for the first round). Merry Christmas!
1989
Every moose I see in that pic seems pretty pissed off and I’m gonna guess 439
oop. just realised I glazed over the even number requirement soooo I’ll say 440 instead of my previous 439.
I’m pretty sure she meant round numbers, not even numbers.
Wow this posting thing is pretty easy. I will guess 665 because that is a pretty awesome picture
523 please!
1732.
Because you’re. wesome.
1197.
That polar bear better be able to defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance.
1220!
176!
1740
637 . Oh man, this would be the most awesome thing to win ever!
1840!
826
286?
783, Thank you and Merry Christmas
1884. Merry Christmas!
1464!
587.
1099. My money’s on Commander.
1438!
1672
Saw my previous guess was already taken. May I change it to 206?
1372
972!
Let’s hope that’s lucky because people already took like 5 of my numbers.
1234 Best worst pass-code!
1292
758
Ahhh so many entries! I guess 344
Oh, that was taken 1382
14
I’ll take 1334. Merry Christmas!
258
let’s go for
1794
1712
1551
I’m gonna guess it’s 1763. Regardless, hope everyone enjoyed the holidays ^_^
I’ll venture 1748 because it isn’t taken yet. :) Long time fan: this artwork would make my dad crack up. :) Really Spiffing
924
1426! =]
425! And a very merry Christmas!
813
1082…. good luck and i can’t wait for the next comic strip :)
1994 – the year I graduated. I was going to guess 1999 (Tonight we’re going to party like it’s), but someone beat me to it. Curse you!
1201
555
hrmm 554 I guess if the even number requirement makes my previous guess ineligible
When I said even numbers I meant I wanted people to stop posting decimals and the edit I made to fix it didn’t go through, apparently.
I apparently have to make this more unique, by virtue of these words
1392
167 – you got me at “overseas”
200
675!
Surprisingly hard to find a number someone hadn’t guessed yet. When this hits 1000 posts, I suspect it might be impossible.
Whup. Meant to say 2000 posts.
Dang… maybe 2000 should have been my guess. :)
820
Let’s try my birfday
1790
1433
I’m throwing up my guess as “1336” as it’s the number of the next strip. but that makes me wonder, are you going to be doing anything special for comic 1337? perhaps as a sweet new years thing an epic 1337 strip of epic proportions would rock.
467
1553! Love this comic, even if it is late 80% of the time ;)
1497!
678
855
imma go with tree fiddy (350)
1007 here’s hoping :)
18 is my number.
I’m going to guess 14
I see a lot of big number guesses, so I want to try a smaller number. I don’t forsee myself winning, but a small chance is better than no chance! *crosses fingers*
654
337
874
1981
1034
87!
This looks like a really nice poster! My guess would have to be 1220. Merry Christmas!!
It looks as though my number was posted before me and didn’t come up when i posted using the find feature. So my next guess is 1149.
1474
While the odds are against me just happening to pull down the right number, I see no harm in trying. Congrats to whoever ends up getting it (its a pretty spiffy image, if I do say so myself)
1466
208
1898
927!
Best guess ever: 1117
220.
Happy Holidays everyone!
712
Come on lucky 306
1723
276 – fingers crossed!
1238 Dun dun dun
580!
1616
802
542
839!
403
593
Random number ho!
1517
Let’s see how this goes. >:3
111 !!!!
840
1,563 :3
1300? V:
681
Crap! Can’t read! Even numbers…okay, how about 680?
Even numbers mean not decimals. They can end with 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 and still be fine.
No, even numbers are numbers which end in 0,2,4,6,8. Whole numbers means not decimals.
I meant whole numbers, because people were posting decimals and it was going to be insane trying to sift through these if that caught on. I edited the post pretty soon after making it, but apparently I navigated away from the page before it finished processing and the edit didn’t go through, I apologize for the confusion.
1767
my first five guesses were taken :O
I’m only going to guess once, so here’s my birth year.
1993
Sorry, I got it first. My comment was awaiting moderation when you posted yours because it was my first post. If you want 1993, then I’ll change mine to 1322. Otherwise you could change. Doesn’t matter.
35
125 is the number I choose.
1635
227 :D
898!
Still loving the Commander on my pillow case here in S. Korea so here goes!!!
1824
My guess is 20, (0020 for people trying find function a number in all the dates)
Explanation to follow
hmph, 303 and 303+33=306 were already taken
find functioning for single digit numbers will be a pain but I did notice “0001” was taken so not that either.
lets try the square root of banana = (b*a)^0.5 * n*a = 19.8, rounds to 20. (banana = 394 was also taken)
manually looking through the numbers did not turn up 20.
How about 1984.
Ah. 647 sounds pretty good to me.
I really like the range of tones you were able to get into this. I like the warm foreground and cooler background. Somethin’ about marker pieces, man! They’re impressive and lovely to look at all at once.
I guess this would be a good time to wish everyone some happy holidays, for though Christmas is now passed, well, the holiday spirit still ought to be treating you pretty nicely. Eheheh. :3
Let’s go for 1442
0776
1011, I choose you!
I’m going to start guessing with the obvious # 3
Somehow no one has tried this mystical number yet…
(not sure if I’ve commented on this site before…)
also not sure if this counts for tuesday’s vote or wednesday’s vote as I’ve yet to go to bed / posting from a different time zone (still after midnight)
This is so great. One of the only contest things I’d waste time trying to win. 555.
1651. Not sure if you are allowed to have more than one entry. If not, this entry is retracted. Not trying to break the rules, but will dance in any grey area.
The post says one number per day so I think you’re good. :|b
I am a very lazy man.
1792
Thought a series of checks and numbers I have realized that with the amount of people already in and the amount of numbers and variance of numbers this is the most likely choice for me without someone previous winning already.
1423
Kweh. 1517.
^-^
Oh. My comment did show up. XD
I r teh stoopid.
489
346.
I am really grateful for the years already past. This comic is still truly marvelous. Thank you for drawing and posting it for us to see.
489
979
847
245 Will be my today’s guess :D.
889!
509
800 (as of this posting, using ctrl+f there are only two instances of 1800) :)
1999
1999 just because
1485
25
1028 :)
792
950
556!
1790
654
626
random number, HO!
1981
1711
712
Eight-hundred-twenty-eight
I’m being stopped because my comment is too samey, apparently, so I’ve written it out, words-style
That means someone else got that number first.
Nah. I personally don’t see an 828 anywhere, and my post is apparently still awaiting moderation even though my number wasn’t used before, either. It’s calling out the posts as being similar, but not necessarily identical.
Posts have to await moderation if the person has never commented on the site before. But yeah, I don’t see 828 anywhere else either, strange. I’m not sure what it counts as “too similar” then.
I’m suspecting that it’s just automatically flagging posts as “too similar” when they only contain a 1-4 digit number after several other posts also containing a 1-4 digit number have been made. Since there’s many posts that just have a number and no text.
Adding a sentence or short comment to the post seems to be all it takes to avoid running into the “too similar” issue, though.
In my case (and it specifically stopped me and asked if I wanted to proceed,) both my post and another were “[Number] and happy holidays”. So that one is explainable, at least. Just thought I’d mention that it doesn’t look out just for identical posts.
I got that on my post, when I just posted numbers, and since this is a number guessing to win the artwork, the spammer guessed that people were spamming. So, that is why I put my first post like I did.
826
1317? Happy New Years. :)
1664
1331
1616 for some reason or another
What an amazing picture! I’ll guess 909.
I’m gonna go with 6
1460
379!! :D
464
1797
My guess is on 317.
Going with 226, since ctrl+f doesn’t see that yet.
Keep up the awesome comic.
1423 – Thanks!
897 please
573
I’m gonna guess 116, or as we cool kids call it: Elevinty-six!
1870, love your comics, keep going! :D
1478… No I didn’t just use my PIN number… :D… This is such a great piece of work, have a great Christmas!!
– 1317 – for my guess.
My bet is Jared somehow ends up in the bears mouth.
Love the comic!
Oh boy. Searching for the number doesn’t work too well when it’s less than two digits. Okay, giving this one a try: 8!
1792
And I learned something new!!!!!
Thanks
1459.
This number speaks to me, I think.
Aw, what a nice holiday idea. Thanks for sharing the manliness.
1147!
132!
Heeh, I’ll go with 1873.
1466
What the heck, it’s a wonderful piece. Any chance this will turn into a phone background? That would be really cool.
1740.
521!
1270? Worth a try >.<
1246
1192
472 please! :D
12.
That is a really hard number to search for. In the process, I discovered that like 5 people guessed “1212,” and 3 guessed “1224.” C’mon, people…
96
769
Dunno if it’s been said, but is this for Boxing Day? :-D
641
1973
Birth year is taken, so here’s birthday: 1231.
(With the American mmdd. Spelling it the normal way wouldn’t be under 2000.)
635
1713
This looks awesome! 1208
1180
69 not sure if its been guessed yet or not but ill give it a go
1616 perhaps?
I choose 911
31
A chance for few MGDMT artwork is enough to bring even my jaded heart to comment.
544.
Also, let me take this opportunity to say that I adore your comic. I was way overdue for saying that, anyway.
1422 maybe?
1052 i am surprised as to how many post odd, when he clearly said its an even number.
I meant even as in not fractions, which some people were posting. I edited the post to say “whole numbers” but this connection is a little unreliable so I guess it didn’t stick.
3959
191
Cheers and I hope you and your kin had a wonderful holiday.
1974. Because it was a good year.
1283?
1899!
458
723
Happy holidays!
1018
I’m going to guess 106! Merry Christmas, all!
I’m liking the look of 920
1874, and merry Christmas!
479
1647
66!
1416.
Lucky number… 108!
Best. Print. Ever.
801
1832!
1534
565!
1874
obviously the bear lost :)
good luck to whoever wins, this looks awesome
251 !
1263
1181 happy holidays!
564, as that is the polar bears weight – the captains weight, and thus is correct. :)
1136
:-)
1,077.
hmm 1762!
1048 !
719! (The number of comments up to this point)
1356
1667, Gonna win me somthin?
I’m going to have to go with 1346
And thanks for 3 years of manly men.
1,392
1224! can i take back 1356?
Sure why the heck not…
1013
And because this is after christmas day I’m gonna say only Happy New Year =D
14
1720
1422.
Hope you had a merry Christmas, Coelasquid!
876
even numbers as in the number you have in mind won’t be odd?
*812*
876 was taken
Love the comic! 79
1543
1372
I’ve been reading this comic for at least a year now, but I never knew that your hand drawn pictures were so amazing. The coloring on that polar bear is fantastic!!!
(As a side note, I absolutely loved that Prince of Persia Papyrus comic and used it as my skype picture for months)
So awesome. Whatever the result the next comic needs, at the very least, a picture in the background of the bear and the commander arm in arm smiling at each other and drinking a beer or something.
My guess is 932.
1366 for me.
859
!!
4242 :3
964! That bear is definitely going down. Sorry, bear.
1402
Here is hoping, right? :x
1911
1095
now for a ‘lucky’ number, 13.
For some it is bad luck, others good luck.
1355
I love raffles.
i hope it’s close to 1100 !
762
1526 please
1618
242
222.
1241
My guess will be 1309!
156!
Bear #2 in the back’s so happy.
1325
164, here we go!
I choose YOU, 522!
(This is such an awesome thing. Thank you so much for giving us all the chance to own such UNTOLD AWESOMENESS).
I’ll give it a shot–1631
1953
1627
Great Idea, I’ll go with 1854
74
1371
313 for me, Happy holidays all!
I’ll go with lucky number 7. The odds are a longshot, but hey, that’s why it’s lucky.
1493
365
1429 !
896! Purely because randomness!
I tried to do a ctrl+f on ’12’.
That gave me every post with ‘2012’.
So I’m hoping no one selected 12. Then again if you did pick 12, Coela wouldn’t want to go through the same hassle I would. And because 2013 is next year (and same issue with ’13’…
My official guess is 11. Take care and have a great Festivus, all.
475 – ’cause, you know, it’s been over a day since I posted. ;_; And BA is amazing so I will try again to get an awesome piece of artwork of him.
1230!! It’s devisable by 6, which is my lucky number, so we’re going with it!! :D
492
7. Always guess seven.
Got to go with 1123. As in 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34….
Wait that was taken… My bad. Can I try again with 669?
1520 , guess number 2 for day 2
679
61 is my vote
860
1340, just slightly past 2/3 the maximum.
735
764
370
315
222 =)
1513
496?
999
1469
I say 896!
I choose 419. Best of luck everyone!
1845
1912
1926
Guess number two for day number two: 153
The thrill of the guessing game – the more days we get into this, the more excited I’ll get!
1857
1198 for great justice
1512
1836
273
Sonny Chiba was in a movie called Karate Bear Fighter. I wish I was joking, but that movie’s pretty good.
507
2319
653

955!
Awesome comic and happy holidays!
1173 :)
Let’s go with…162

So it’s OK to go once a day? If not then just ignore this one–I already guessed yesterday.
741
331
1726. I love the comic. Only just discovered it but read all the back catalogue.
356! :D
My lucky number: 17
Fingers crossed for Sweden.
146
He’s not a Machine! He’s a man!

Second guess is going to be 123
578.
How about a 131?
I choose four thousand three hundred and twenty one :P

1189
1837

Aside from being my >100 lucky number, it’s also the middle column of number pads!
Also, what a fun picture, hahaha.
497!
1976
1207
53
194? Maybe?
My guess would have to be

Awesome comic! I guess 622
Come oooon 592!

703
557
1256
Happy holidays!!!
1749 fingers, toes and eyes crossed
3, aka three, aka (4-1), aka square root of 9
This is much more fun than a lottery! Thank you, merry Christmas, and a happy new year!
seen it at least once, shortly after my first comment.
1666.
252
126?
Let’s give this a whirl.
1480
1912!
Come a day late, and all the numbers I’d have chosen are taken.
129, for Magikarp.
15
1121.
Twice now I’ve gotten an error saying I can’t post because my comment is too similar to other comments with different numbers. This random rant is to ensure that it cannot flag me for spam or whatnot because it is now sufficiently different. Blabbity-blabbity-blah random noises bleep glorp plefk gabm nork zimplar fbleck. IS THAT SUFFICIENTLY DIFFERENT?!
1385
100
808
325, and merry christmas continue the great work
