It’s hosted on a blog, so there’s no need for me to mirror-post every single Chainmail Bikini entry like I do with Stolen Pixels. So, I’m warning you now I won’t be reminding you every MWF to read it. However, I do want to point you to the first one.
Good to be the King?
Which would you rather be: A king in the middle ages, or a lower-income laborer in the 21st century?
Steam Summer Blues
This mess of dross, confusion, and terrible UI design is the storefront the big publishers couldn't beat? Amazing.
Please Help I Can’t Stop Playing Cities: Skylines
What makes this borderline indie title so much better than the AAA juggernauts that came before?
In Defense of Crunch
Crunch-mode game development isn't good, but sometimes it happens for good reasons.
The Middle Ages
Would you have survived in the middle ages?

There’s no need with Stolen Pixels, either. Of course, you’re perfectly justified. The additional commentary is usually worth seeing it mentioned twice.
yd: I post it here because some people want to comment but aren’t into the whole account creation thing.
ehh, i appreciate the links. i find the escapist’s site to be a pain, really, so the links directly to the comic are good.
need or not, it’s useful.
plus the whole comments thing… but i never seem to have anything to say about the comics anyway. they’re funny though :D
Is it going to continue beyond where it left off last time? Or will this new host merely publish the series up till when it left off?
In any case, bookmarked. :)
EDIT: Never mind. It’s clearly stated in the comments after the comic.
Hey, I understand it’s your birthday today, Shamus? Best of wishes!
Shawn, not Shamus. =P
Shamus’ birthday is, if I recall, August… 24th?
Wait, you didn’t have a complete archive? I’ve got one on one of my servers. Did I miss a post where you were looking for it?
I’ve got all 51 comics, plus ten other files posted as part of the comics. Is there anything I can throw to you guys?
Duncan: I’m missing the last two posts – the story wrap-up. They were all text and I entered them directly instead of writing them locally and uploading them.
If you’re missing text and not images, I’m afraid I can’t help with that. I archive webcomic images, but I don’t seem to have the posts saved. Sorry about that.
Happy Birthday Shamus.
And yay, Chainmail Bikini! I love this comic.
I’d appreciate it if you could post about them here so I don’t have to add another RSS Feed to my ig page.
It’s not his birthday! /backhand
The reason the police can’t bust the criminals for assaulting you is that you’re technically trespassing and threatening them, making it self-defense. The guns they use also aren’t admissable as evidence because they were obtained without a search warrant, and search warrants can’t be issued to private citizens like Star On Chest.
Duncan- please send me the extra images. A lot of stuff I just made and then uploaded, and lost my copies when my computer died a year or so ago. Email anything non-comic you have to shawn.gaston at gmail.com
thanks!
@Shamus:
Perhaps the “Internet Archive: Wayback Machine” (http://www.archive.org/web/web.php) may help you with the missing two pages you mentioned.
I was surprised what I could find in their archive. Small web-pages I made for a small handful of gamers, and other stuff.
It’s kinda funny to dig through various sites too.
Edit:
Your blog is listed too. There is an entry from november 2006:

What happened to your comic?The link is broken now, but one month ago it worked.
