Comic in the Neopian Times twice?

Tue Dec 21, 2004 12:27 pm

I've just noticed, a comic appeared in both issue 169 and 170 of the Neopian times, same artist, same comic, and the person got a trophy for both of them.

Ya know, that happens more often than you would think. I think there's another comic in that issue too that has won twice also.

[Edit] - Nope, I was wrong about that last thing. But I could've sworn I saw this one somewhere else... Ah well. Anyhow, it is unfair that someone is able to submit a comic twice with different titles and get into the NT. I hope they do get this sorted out soon...

That is odd... It shows how much they proof-check their own newspaper...

This has been discussed over at the NTWF (Neopian Times Writers' Forum, the hub of all unofficial Neopian Times related things ;) ) and it happens that the author, who uses both of those usernames, submitted it twice, once under each account. It was held over on one, and put in on the other. Accidents happen. :lol:
