Good grief. The NaNoWriMo people get 30 days, at least.

this is kinda neat. but I work a lot so someone should start an EP-A-Day thing where you make an EP in like 6 hours. then I'd do it.

I once organized something similar in college. Different aims, predictable results, lots of fun.

The origin of all this is 24-hour comics, IIRC.

Oh, man, I'm all over this shit.

Also, the 24 hour comics are pleasantly good.
