  • I was feeling nostalgic, so I decided to go check if the Wotch was any less dead than when I stopped reading it.

    Which turned into a bit of an adventure when Google, in its infinite wisdom, autocorrected "Wotch" to "Witch" and refused to accept a correction.

    Eventually, I manged to pull it up using the search terms "wotch ka girl". That pulled up the TVtropes page, which had working links to the comic.

  • Weird. ... Just tried "Wotch" and it gave me Wotch. And that was without verbatim quotes. ... What's with your setup that that doesn't work? ... Do you search for witches a lot??

  • Maybe Arcanist was searching from a phone/tablet? Those devices have annoyingly heavy-handed autocorrect...

    Don't call me "Shirley." You will surely make me surly.

    I also had no trouble with a search, and dang, looks like you took a good time to check because they are just now starting up again, and have a promised buffer so one comic a week for a while.
