Akon

Just got back from Dallas and gotta draw and ink todays comic. I got to sleep some in the car while Gina’s husband drove but when I got home I think I used up that rest reading some of the comic books that I got at the show… If Obby asks, it was research.

Akon was awesome! got to see piles of convention friends and did lotsa great over sharing of inappropriateness during panels. I have learned many things.

#1. When drunk and/or over caffeinated at a panel I chose my words and am careful not to over share. If I am sober, I have no such filter and everything just plops out of my mouth without a second thought and the next thing I know I’m …. nevermind.

#2. If I’m on my own in a panel, and no one is there to curb my rambling, it adds to the rampant over share.

#3. I should not post blog entries at 2am after a 13 hour drive… 3 parts Simply Limeade and 1 third Havana Rum…it’s a really really dangerous thing.

 

Anywho, this is the best photo ever mostly because of the awesome ladies from Adamo Anothology (and other books?) are in the background.

FAIL

obby here.

So, I fail at HTTP.

The stats on the site have shown about 3000 people per day coming in from geebaonparade.com. I thought: “Sweet!”.

Then I finally got some metrics going on geebasonparade.com and saw that almost all of the people that visit geebas go directly to thedevilspanties.com after visiting.

Then I remembered the part where Jennie had told me that a fan was asking when the April Fools joke would be over….

…The one where I redirected everyone from thedevilspanties.com to geebasonparade.com.

Then I felt like an idiot for not investigating deeper when Jennie first mentioned it to me.

So the short of it is that I should have used a 302(Temporary) redirect instead of a 301(Permanent). I usually do a 301 by default without issues. However with a site this popular there will always be some browsers and ISPs that will misbehave, or in this case behave 100% according to the RFC.

Unfortunately there is no easy way to fix this for everyone unless we issue another 301 redirect on geebasonparade.com to go back to thedevilspanties.com.

This is not something we want to do right now, but we will be forced to if the numbers don’t drop from the current 3000 redirected visitors in the next 2 weeks.

So:

TL;DR

IF YOU ARE STILL BEING REDIRECTED TO GEEBASONPARADE.COM VAPORIZE YOUR BROWSER CACHE.

IF YOU STILL ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES AFTER NUKING YOUR CACHE FROM ORBIT, CALL YOUR ISP OR ADMINISTRATOR AND TELL THEM TO “CLEAR THE REDIRECT FOR THEDEVILSPANTIES.COM FROM THEIR PROXY”.

ALSO I WILL BE COMMITTING EPEEN SEPPUKU.

My other comic.

My larp comic “Geebas on Parade” will never be dead but it has been in a coma for the past year. It’s been stuck in limbo since I moved off of Keenspot’s servers (awesome guys, it was time for me to head out on my own) and I never got around to switching Geebas over.

Guess what Obby fixed? http://geebasonparade.com/

I still have a lot to update on it; photos, links, etc. And I’ll get to that after I finish updating the photos links etc on DP. So much to do. So few clones.
