We discussed Tempts in this thread. There are links there to the pages that were posted. But no, the final page (escaping Hell) was never posted. Thunt said he'll get to it. But he's got his hands full trying to keep the comic up to date, preparing for the card game Kickstarter, and whatever else is happening in his personal/family life.

Tempts Fate=Monster. He spread seeds of evil, and brutally treats humans and blue teddy bears. I suggest you all ask Thunt to replace him with a human hero who eliminates monsters, such as Psi max. Let Tempts fate die rather than escape!

But he is our monster, we did pay for him to survive ;-)

I know that overpowered characters are bad for me, but it's just so satisfying watching someone face difficult obstacles and steamroller them, especially in contrast to the main storyline.

Tempts fate made a deal with an evil eye. Infernal seed of pure evil is now a part of him and will be his doom. If you support tempts fate, you support your own doom as well.

Kore, buddy... You're thinking about this all wrong. See, by HELPING support the success of Tempts Fate, we bring him (and all the goblins) closer to his inevitable doom at your hands. We're just trying to help you further your work, that's all!

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly my stance on the matter.

Tempts Fate 11... The Ending

Psi Max: "I am here to help you escape."
Tempts Fate: "Really? Thanks. What do I do?"
Psi Max: "Just jump into this hole I made and you will get out of hell".
Tempts Fate: "Ok, thank you."

Tempts Fate jumps into oblivion hole. The end.

Well, at thesame time Thunt should remove all references to Tempts from his site and forum(s)...

I have to say, I LOVE this comic but it has, by far, the worst update time on any comic I read. Including comics with more updates. I find it hard to believe that other comic writers aren't just as busy. I mean, seriously, it's been OVER A YEAR since Tempts Fate 11 ended. If I were one of those who had made a large donation, I would be PISSED. Even the general comic is usually days late which I don't understand. Dude, if you can't keep up, drop it to once a week. I'd rather hand that then spend 2 days looking for a comic that isn't there yet.

At some point though that stops being a valid excuse. After a year and a half if you can't find time to even post the part of the project you have finished to your website, you need to admit to the people who paid for it that it's never going to get done. I'm not trying to bash Thunt, but you have to admit it's not a great way to inspire people to buy things from you.

Really? Because I care WAY more about how the story comes out than a sketch I can hang on my wall.

...im all for the sketch, not that I got one, a bit to expensive as im a student. Just wondering, did you donate at all? :?

I think we may need to make this an FAQ entry somewhere, but Thunt has already said that the update schedule will not be dropping to one comic per week. But you know, if you only want to look for new comics once per week, you could always just do that. It might be less frustrating for you.

I take it you don't read Order of the Stick? Even before Rich injured his hand, the comic update frequency was basically "whenever." He has other health issues, and he updates when he can. Sometimes it's a lot; sometimes it's not. If people want to read his story, they wait and let him write when he can. Probably you shouldn't start reading it, either, if update frequency is problematic to you. Still, it's a really good story. I don't love it as much as I do Goblins, but it's close. :)

The 'delay' is not Thunt's fault, it is Tempt's Fate fault.

Do not associate with evil, do not get infected with it. Do not accept it in any part of your body, even your foot. Do not accept infernal character sheets. Or you too may be destroyed by evil.

Look, the comic is totally free to read and be a part of, so you really can't complain. Just be patient! And as far as Tempts Fate goes, that was mostly a side project, I think. When THunt does manage to finish it, I doubt anyone will be disappointed. As for Kore, pretty sure you're gonna meet your doom at the hands of Senor Vorpal Kickass'ooooooooo!

Well, if he ever wants to run another donation fund rally, he should have finished the one before.....
And no, Kickstarter does not count as a donation fund, as you actually buy something in case the Kickstarter target has been met. Therefore, Kickstarter is not a donation as Tempts Fate is.

This should be added to the OP.

I wholeheartedly approve. Thunt, you have been forgiven, just don't screw this up too... ;)

May I suggest for someone to re-write this threads title whenever an update comes, and possibly get pinned? Or shall we start an entirely new thread for the "Searching for Tempts Fate" ?

Well, this is the first time I saw the rest of the Tempts Fate (that's been drawn, that is), for some reason until now I only saw up to where he kerplodes Cerberus. Love the first shot of the lake fire monster :P and Thunt seriously needs to stop being so hard on himself. Poor dude.
