Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
For people who create content on the Internet, whether their work gets seen and shared often depends on whether the sites it is posted on promotes it. Sites determine which content to promote or bury by use of automated secret algorithms. While it's sometimes possible to discern a little bit of how those algorithms work, in practice it's like praying to a faceless, mysterious, and capricious deity that it will bless you with clicks/views/likes, so that you can earn some money from your work.
So illustrate this, that's what Bob is literally doing here: praying to the big stone "algorithm" for clicks and money.
Cool. Thanks for the explanation. Is there any significance to 1 + 8 = 10?
That the algorithm doesn't actually add up is my interpretation
It does add up, it's just in base 9.
