Thing I did as a test for a possible webcomic I may start.

A Hexagonal Slab Of Wood is a book written by fictional Baishu player Raokji Cîang, in which he talks about how he came to know the game of Baishu after escaping from his town in Hrastaiqua, and how he came to see the magic in it while learning strategies to make the game interesting, and then to win the game competitively.

I started writing this story after I showed the first version of Baishu to my friends and they liked it. I decided that I had to set it in a world of its own, where maybe it had some kind of importance in the societies in which it's present. It's not finished yet, but I hope it's a good read!

To do numbers like 10 and up, I use the other hand for the dozens place

We have made a space for the Laiqbun community, with a room for the language itself, a room for off-topic conversation and a room for discussion about the fictional culture.

It tries to explain most of Laiqbun basic grammar quickly, and I think it's best used when people can explain you what things are supposed to mean (which are what the discord server and matrix room are there for). I'm pretty proud of it.

I tried out the Searx search engine and searched for laiqbun and found this. I have no idea who made it nor how does it work, but it's pretty cool

I've been working on this thing for a while, and yesterday it reached 100 pages. I copy the format that MSPA uses, since MSPA format is, to me, iconic of extremely convoluted plots that don't make sense at first and escalate a lot

I try to keep the text on each panel short. That way the story doesn't become hard to read. It's got a RSS feed too, to make it easier to follow updates

Updates are usually 6-12 pages, but there have been cases with more or less than that

My main instance is sopuli.xyz, but I often explore lemmy.ml for communities to follow since most of them are there. The problem with this is that in the app there's no option to subscribe to a community from another instance, or I haven't found it, at least.

Is there a way to do this?

During the last week, a Mysterious Benefactor paid someone to make an official font for Laiqbun. Making a font for the original Laiqbun script (Raiaqbun) was near-impossible, due to the huge amount of glyphs. So what he did is creating a new writing system that he could actually make a font for. I have called it Raiaqsuq, from the roots reiaq (x₁ is a writing) and seq (x₁ is new).

The script is typed slightly different than the romanization and is very different from Raiaqbun, but it still keeps the vibe that Laiqbun is going for. Eschar really did a good job while making this font.

I hope people have as much fun using it as I have.

Man these are fun to make

I've always loved this kinda images, so I'll prolly do some with more complex sentences. That'd be fun

Bonus points if you don't do something like "the main character considered themselves the hero and the story is narrated from their perspective"

Thought I'd share this album, mostly as an excuse to introduce blaseball to here
