ps: Please be a dear, and Join our forums. Granted, they are more dead than a theater showing...a really bad movie. Like if (for some insane insane crackpot reason) From Justin to Kelly was given a re-release, thats how dead the forums are. Unlike that movie, you (yes you! the reader!) can breathe LIFE back into the forums!

Well, after our Christmas/New Years/MLK Day/more hiatus, im glad to say we've returned!

and then two weeks later had to miss an update. No worries though, it happens to the best of us. And by best of us I mean lazy artists who find "college applications" and "real life" more important than webcomics. Hmph. No need to worry though, for next week there will be TWO NEW COMICS!!!! I know, im just as excited

Yes. Late. Oh so very late. I apologize for the few viewers that watch this and what they have to put up with. We over here were enjoying our holidays oh so much that we forgot! Or more importantly I forgot to even write up anything.

Anyway, there won't be any updates for a while. At least after New Years. Expect the next update around January 7th THE EARLIEST. In the mean time, spread the word! Just tell your friends "Hey they're good!! Just the updating schedule is kinda shite". One new viewer a week is more than enough.

Much Love, the one and only, Ari (acton).

A cold night in [location withheld] a long time ago
There was this nerdy chick named Helne (yo!)
Now helne was a webcomic artist filled with lots o' talent
Intelligence, humor, and might I add quite gallant
Until one fateful night, she heard a rapping at her door
And mind you no such ravens or quothing "nevermore"

She approached the door and when she opened she was shocked
A well groomed well dressed man with the name of Gary Brock
Mr Brock said "now listen here you naive girl"
"you know that SATs are a precious as white pearls"
"You better get good grades and those essays done quick"
"or live a life of whoring and s*cking worthless peoples' d**ks"

And with that she went a-running grabbed a paper and a pen
And starting writing with the hopes that when
She graduated college and got her masters degree
Shed be someone important like a duke or a marquis.

OH SNAP! OH SNAP! ACTON CAN RHYME (sh*tty. Never said rhyme well. Just rhyme)

Yeah, due to college stuff, Helne didnt have time to finish comic. It will be up ASAP. As for me? Ive been slacking off. Lots of guitar playing, school work, and dropping dope rhymes. Also I managed to travel back to the late 80s and early 90s. No Gfunk/Gangsta Rap here Mothaf*cka.

Wow. Its Late for the 20,000th time Im fully aware. Not excusing my self. I suck, more ways than one. Just shower me with insults and...insults. I have it coming. But if its one thing I learned from this week's lateness is: A girl slut level is directly proportional to how much liquor she cannot hold. Ok Kiddies? Now you remember that rule =(

But in all seriousness folks, this comic IS STILL GOING ON! Slow but ITS STILL GOING ON!. OK? Keep the link in your Rss feeds and everything, and when it updates youll see it, and youll be like "Holy hell RTPM, the best comic ever just updated again! what's going to happen now?!"

http://rtpm.comicgenesis.com/rss.xml http://rtpm.comicgenesis.com/rss.xml http://rtpm.comicgenesis.com/rss.xml

That dear readers is the RSS feed. Put it in the readers and stay tuned! The story gets more awesome than it already is! Soon!

Yet another addition of Ari's bimonthy rantbox update *yay* *cheers* *loud noises*!!!

A few things to add on the list. Still no easy way of updating the stupid rant boxes, I need to find a way. All this manual stuff is...well plain stupid. And time consuming, and easy to forget to do. Ill just abuse some of my friends and see what they come up with...unless you all have something (im sure you do >_>!)

secondly. A good friend of mine started up his own site, and its good. Its about video games, and theres podcasts and cool people and everything! So check it out! Be the Gamer!

Thirdly. This is going to sound crazy, but im thinking of just hauling this whole comic right out of here and into my own site. Of course ill need server space and a steady income....in time itll all come. I turn 16 in august, and with that comes many many job opportunities!! yay for me!. Comicgenesis is good and all, but its hard to use and the learning curve is a bit on the steep side (especially for our less than technosavvy artiste >_>!!). Soo anyone want to give me some helpful tips on that too go ahead!

Well then, forced to write a rant against my will. Umm what to talk about....Not much really. RL is what it is, dull except for a few spikes of excitement. Comic has its usual irregular update pattern, thanks to moi. I keep telling myself to fix it, but...its hard. Plus, this week, Helne WAS late with the comic >:D.

Well actually, I do want to throw in this little piece of blatant advertising. As a final fantasy XI fan, myself and fellow FFXI fans started making a podcast. The name of it is MegaElixir, and Its doing pretty well haha. You can download it on iTunes (best bet), odeo.com, podnova.com, and something else. I say get it on iTunes, unless you dont have it, get it at odeo.com. The forum is right here. If you are a fan, or hate it, join either way. Openely criticize or praise, and join in on the silliness. Insane silliness. Thats silly. OOOOOOOOEEEEEOOOOO!!!!!

And one more thing to add. As you can see, the rants are updated once every forever. This is becuase I dont have anything fancy to update them, and basically have to do it manually, and its a pain in the arse. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it easier to update these blog things? (possibly some free [or not] software or something, anything will help ^_^).

Yes, yes, yes. The comic has a very strange update...pattern if you will. The problem is, well, were still nooblets with this whole webcomic managing thing. In time though, it'll be better, just pleeeeease bear with us ^_^.

In other news, I've finally updated the links page, complete with a link to the website's RSS feed. That means, you can now know when the comic updates or not. yay! If you dont know about RSS feeds and whatnot, heres what to do:

1) go to reader.google.com
2) make a google account if you dont have one. IF you have a GMAIL account, you can use that info to log in
3) click "edit subscriptions" on top.
4) click add a feed
5) Get the link to the RSS feed from the links page, and copy+paste it into the google reader...thing
6) Click preview
7) Finally, click subscribe

That should be it. Now, when the comic gets updated, you should get a little notice and a link to the main page (click "see original item" or something like that to get to the main page). The great thing about this is, if you have a few webcomics or a fan of, or perhaps podcasts that you like or whatever, and they have RSS feeds, you can add those feeds to the google reader and get updates for those sites. Its, in the words of the vrr, "nifteh".

And just a final note. The rants arent updated frequently because I have to do everything manually, and quite honestly, I just dont have the time or patience to do so. Yes, I'm very lazy. =(

Hello again. Nothing new from me. If you've notice, theres a few links to toplists up there...go vote! Err I think one of them is broken, ill go and fix that >_<.

In other news, Im playing around, trying to fix up the layout on my computer thanks to a few tips I recieved from a few friends of mine. When im done fixing it, ill uploading along with a few new pages...well only the character bios, but thats still a good thing.

Im also pretty aware of the fact that we have new readers here. I welcome you all, and even if this is going to be the only time that you are going to be here, register at our forums HERE and vote for us. I myself would GREATLY appreciate it :)

Oh and i know somewhere here theres an RSS feed that comicgenesis automatically makes...I have to find it first. But once I do, ill post it in the links section for you guys with RSS readers. If you dont have one, go to Google Reader. Its an awesome RSS reader, and its free. You'll only need a google account to ahve access to it.

WELCOME EVERYBODY TO RTPM 2.0!!!!



Welcome, welcome. This is the revamped site of Reddigity the Pimp Mage, the webcomic we all don't really know, but love anyway. Once again, I am Acton, and my "tech" skills have been put to good use for once. Not much to say here, except that THE SITE LOOKS F*CKING KICKASS!!!!!!!

The idea of a new look was started right when the site was started around February 2005. Until the time came, I just used one of those free templates from The Jaded. Even though he doesnt read our comic, I just want to thank him for making those templates. Without those, we would have that crappy...nothing...look for the site for almost 10 months. Moving along, Helne (the artist) started making a template, and she took her time. Her dear, sweet time. Her INSANELY DEAR SWEET TIME. But what can I do? The artist of a webcomic is the most important dude :P. So as she was nearing completion of the new template, she scrapped it and said that she didn't like the way it was coming out. Alas, more waiting was...needed (does that even make sense?).

But by November 2005, she was done with the brand new template. And I was quite impressed. But now it was time for Acton boy to go to work. Of course, I took my time also, but I worked faster and more efficiently than my cohort (bazing). In reality, I was given the template, made a quick "demo" of it to see how it would look like, and then just left it alone until about 2 weeks ago. Then I started my hard work, and let me tell you all. Tables are the worst thing to happen to the internet since Goatse. But sooner or later I finished, and spent the last 2-4 days debugging and perfecting everything. Im have OCD when it comes to computers >_>. And now, here it is. I dont even know if it 100% works, but ill safely say....90%. There are still some minor things to fix (most importantly is the link color....the blue mix well). In time though, it shall be fixed.

NOW GET OFF MY LAWN YOU PIECES OF S*IT!!!

My stench has been missed indeed

Hi hi hi. How much you all didnt miss me....i know i know, you were going insane. But never fear, i am back, and with a whole new cast! Including Eva Longoria as the love interest, Edward Norton as my detective partner, and starring CHRISTOPHER friggin WALKEN as the sadistic psycho bad guy who terrorizes the streets of the greater NYC area. Coming this winter to theaters

Well besides this shaky first update since my return (who wouldve thought there would be a 6000 queue on a sunday afternoon T_T), things will start to go smoothly by next update....or not *thumbs up* *freeze frame*



I hope your day is worse than mine ^________^

I know, i havent put in something in the blogspace since i got my psp. well, no i didnt lock myself inside my room because of the psp. i just never bothered. But since i was threated at gunpoint by an anonymous gunman named Helne, i now stand before you, a very miserable tech guy.

So what do i have you say you ask? Well, nothing. Except for a few things.

a) RIP James doonham (aka the scotty from Star trek)
b) S**** kills D********* (i have enough people hating me for spoling it...but its too fun)
c) If you are an avid viewer of ytmnd's, and you use firefox, do not DL quicktime 7. for some reason, they stop working
d) Helne is a dude

Thats it for me, i hope your day is worse than mine ^_^

Sometimes...religious reasons leads into having a psp. Which is the best thing since sliced bread. And even better than that. ITs better anything else on planet earth, besides me of course. To quote Mr. Clevinger of Nuklearpower.com:

"The PSP is the ipod for portable gaming"

In all honesty, it raised every possible bar in portable gaming. Ever.

in other news. This comic seems to be going very great. I love it, and our fan base is growing. Were one user away from 20 members on the forums! yay!

Oh but of course, problems arise. Helne wants to redo the first comics one day. DO NOT DO IT HELNE! I BEG YOU PLEASE DO NOT DO IT!!!!

=================================================================

04-19-2005by Acton

I know, I havent been updating on time. I get really busy on the weekends and stuff, and well one thing leads to another, and before you know it I conquer antarctica. Speaking of which, helne is almost done with the new template! Unfortunately...she is on vacation currently, and shell be back the end of this week! So dont go rioting just yet...

Hello again earthlings! Just to warn whoever is reading this, tommorow's comic will not be on tommorow. Stuff happens ^_^. It should be up monday, tuesday the absolute latest! So do not worry folks, and please untie that noose. You do not want to kill yourself and miss the exciting continuation now do you!!?!?!?!?.

Of course not....mwahahahaha.

=================================================================

Welcome earthlings. I am tech guy and the 3rd most important writer, Acton!

So what exactly do I do here you ask? Well my priority is to make sure the site you see before you is in working condition. I update comics, put/edit new/existing pages, and set up how the site looks. The template for now is borrowed, but Helne (the leader of the comic, and owner of the left news column) is making some new background and buttons which will be put up as soon as they are done.

So, I bet your question is "Are you lame-o tech guy?". If its not that, I bet its "You suck dont you?". The answer to both of those is clearly Of course No. I am a very cool guy, that you either love or hate a little bit, but still love in the end, because im that cool. I also created Acton, which is loosely based of me in real life and my FFXI character who is named Belmonte thanks to some ass in Seraph who had the name Acton already. I found that ass, and i mutilated his body and fed it to chocobos. I then killed those chocobos and fed them to goblins. I drowned those goblins in a sea of poison later that night. And then I burned down a city, because I had spare time.

All stories aside, im a philanthropist at heart. I donate money every week to the local charities and that place that helps poor young blackmages with underdeveloped doom spells. Every gil that I donate finds a cure for these black mages, who will one dayt with medical science grow up to be world dominators, only to fall because i will beat the living crap out of them with my magic. Now that I think of it, im donating money which i lose because i kill the very people I help. Kinda awkward I know, but then again, alot of things in this world do not make sense at all. Like grass, and clouds, and rust, and expiration dates, and alarm clocks with a PM function.
