Hey everyone!
Well, as the title says, I’m going on a hiatus. (If I can call it that.)
How ironic that I just came back too, I know.
Don’t misunderstand though, I’m not taking a break or anything.
‘Pssh, Rando don’t need no break.’
Anyways,
The reason behind this hiatus, is so that I can focus 110% on finishing up Chapter 6 of ‘We Live In An MMO?!”.
Honestly, eversince I missed my intended release date for Chapter 6 back in June, I’ve had one fear for this chapter; that it will take half a year or more for it to be released. Being stuck in the hospital for those 5 days made me feel even more convinced that I should be doing something to finish up this chapter ASAP.
“But Rando, you magnificent bastard, it’s 3 times longer than your average chapter, and you’re mostly doing it by yourself!” – A beautiful fan. (You)
For me, personally, taking more than 6 months for a single ‘MMO?!’ chapter is unacceptable. It’s way too long of a waiting period for you guys, and unfortunately for Chapter 6, it’s already reaching that undesired goal.
I’ve always tried to maintain the 3 month period in-between chapters, not only to discipline myself as a creator, but to also ensure that a reasonable amount of MMO content would be released annually.
Could you imagine if only 2 chapters of MMO were released in an entire year?
That’s just insane! That’s irresponsible!
And if this keeps up, 2017 might be that year!
What’s next? 1 chapter a year?!
SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?
Basically, I’m going to temporarily stop everything else; meaning weekly comics, doodles, art and animations.
I’ll be completely focusing on finishing Chapter 6, and Randowis is going to be quiet for a while, therefore the ‘hiatus’.
DOES THAT MEAN US PATRONS WILL GET NOTHING?!
As a matter of fact, I’m doubling the charge!
And if you did take the previous statement seriously..
I’ve already disabled patron-charges for the month of September, meaning that no-one is going to be charged on the 4th September 2017.
If I make nothing, you give nothing.
(If you do get charged on the 4th of September for some reason, drop me a DM(Direct Message) and we’ll resolve it together.)
I may be a perverted asshole, but I also try my best to be as honest and genuine as I can.
I know some of you genuinely want to support Randowis even if it means getting nothing in return (and for that, you have my deepest thanks), but I won’t allow myself to freeload off your generosity.
HOW LONG IS THIS GOING TO TAKE?
I can foresee this hiatus stretching for a month, maybe more.
I won’t be completely silent though.
I’ll make a ‘Chapter 6’ progress post on Patreon and keep you guys updated there.
I’ll also post on Twitter whenever a tweet-worthy post comes along as well.
To be fair, if this hiatus stretches into the 4th of October 2017, I’ll disable Patron-Charges for that month too.
I’ll do my best to NOT let it stretch that far though.
That’s pretty much it.
For those who look forward to weekly comics, doodles or anything Randowis basically, I hope you’ll forgive me for this ‘period of disappointment’.
Yeah, let’s call it that.
I also hope this isn’t too shocking for you guys, and if it is, let me know in the comments. Are you okay with it? Do you hate it?
I’d love to hear your thoughts.
As always, thank you for your continuous love and support.
Love you much much, and I’ll see you when Chapter 6 is done.

Just for protocol, it’s matter of honor to check it up in the mornings and beforesleepings. Digging to the depths of anticipation. Deeper we are, better chapter 6.
Day 57 without rando… I am weak… Starving for some good comics… I keep reading owlturd and pigeongazette but it is… just not enough… since rando started the hiatus… chaos broke out on the streets… Men killing men… survival of the fittest… Rando, i am not fit! I lay bare of my sins, i just can’t go on anym-….
*drops to the ground and doesn’t move, rando’s eyes slowly fill with tears*
With incredible effort i lift my head one last time “I wanna see Amirul use some cool spells”
*breathing stops, everything goes quiet. Rando crying in the background*
Epic.
I also wanna see Amirul in action. MOREOVER I want to see Lu‘s Story and shit. *_* the new Neko
Looks like we have to wait until senpai comes back. But it has been over 2 months now… i really miss Rando and his humour and i just hope that nothing happened to him that we don’t know of
Please Rando! Shen aka Owlturd has stopped posting for quite some time now… Give me a date of release! Some sign of life. It doesn’t have to be a comic, just a sentence that you are still alive and well would be enough
I was going to post a similar comment but yours is better
I love how people type an essay explaining how amazing you are. Keep up the good work!
We live in an MMO HYYYYPE! Rando really knows how to do it. I keep visiting the site even though i know that there won’t be anything here yet
Hey there,
I’ve read “We live in an Mmo?” In like 10 min.
Immediately called a friend, said “read this shit, it’s nice.”. 12 min later he called me back and said: “hope Rando got to jail with some hot guard-chicks” and the next 10 min we made theories about how they rescue Rando (or what else could happen).
Rando (i mean you). Rando, I dare you. I double dare you motherf***er. If you stop this amazing work or don’t end it acceptable, I’ll hunt you down.
Sir do what you need a true fan doesn’t mind waiting. Just like I don’t. So finish it sempai. Do your best
Even though I know you’re on hiatus, I still visit this website every day……..
I just stumbled onto your site and absolutly love your comics. Do you have them published? Can I buy copies or is it strictly a web comic?
Hi Rando. I hope you are heal soon and im looking forward to the MMO chapter but look after self mate. I like to see all your work and i would hate to see you burn out. Take care and i look forward to seeing your next piece of work when ever or what ever it may be
hey yo why dis hitler kill himself at the end of world war 2?
Because of his gas bills.
A cop pulls a car over on the highway, in it a family: mom, dad, the son and grandma. The father rolls down the window and says to the cop “Oy dipshit, wha’s the problem here?” As the cop raises his eyebrows his wife reacts quickly to control the situation “Don’t take him seriously officer. He’s a real jerk when he gets drunk.”
The cop stares at the wife in disbelief when the son laughs and says maliciously “Yeah you sure talk big for someone who is tripping on coke.” In exasparation the grandma cries out from behind “I knew we wouldn’t get far in this stolen car!”
Still nothing from Rando? Alright.
How many babys do you need to throw at a wall to paint it red?
Well i don’t know, i just do it for fun >:D
Is this what you want Rando? I will sacrifice my dark humour to you if you come back! It has almost been two months
My finest “WW2 French” jokes: How many gears does a French tank have? 3. Reverse. Fast reverse for combat and a really slow forward gear for parades.
My grandfather actually fought for the Nazis back in the day and he was stationed at the western front in Germany. But every now and then he managed to get some days off and visited his buddies in the east front, walking around with a bag full of rifles. He sold them and told his buddies “Want some French weapons? Never used, just dropped once!”
How many dead babies does it take to change a lightbulb? Seems like more than twenty cause my basement is still dark >:D
Would you rather eat a Kitkat or suck a dick? Suck a dick of course because it reminds me of my father >:)
Would you rather eat a sandwich or lick a homeless mans’ toe? Lick the toe of course because when i am done eating the sandwich i can’t murder it >:D
Can we put jokes in this thread so Rando has something to read when he’s taking a break?
What’s brown and sticky? A stick
When our grandad was 65, we told him to run a mile everyday.
Now he’s 70, but we have no idea where he is.
Teacher: “If I gave you 2 cats and another 2 cats and another 2, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven.”
Teacher: “No, listen carefully… If I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven.”
Teacher: “Let me put it to you differently. If I gave you two apples, and another two apples and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Six.”
Teacher: “Good. Now if I gave you two cats, and another two cats and another two, how many would you have?”
Johnny: “Seven!”
Teacher: “Johnny, where in the heck do you get seven from?!”
Johnny: “Because I’ve already got a freaking cat!”
Why did the blind man fall into a well?
Because he couldn’t see that well.
A blind man walks into a bar. Then a table. Then a chair.
Wanna know the last thing my grandpa said before he kicked the bucket?
“I wonder how far I can kick this bucket”
So a man walks into a bar. He tells the bartender “I’ve had a rough day, just give me anything to drink but a beer”, so the bartender pours him some vodka. The next day, the same man walks in and says the same thing, so the bartender gives him some whiskey. On the third day, the man walks in and asks the same thing. This time, the bartender asks him “Why don’t you want to have a beer?”. So the man replies “Well, every time I drink 20 beers, I go home and blow chunks”. The bartender says “Dude, 20 of anything would make you blow chunks”. The man then says “Yeah, well, Chunks is my dog”.
Innocent girl: Do you know what’s the most delicious pie?
Me: well, as for you Creampie.
I want to take that joke one step Fuhrer, but I do Nazi how
Woah man, Jew went a little to far there. You need to concentrate on how to be a better person.
It is a little bit sad but if it means that we will get a 3 times longer “we live in a mmo?” chapter then that is absolutely fine
I support your decision,hell I just love all the comics u guys throw at me. So as long as it’s not a cancellation I’m completely fine with it. Take care of yourself.
Like all the others are saying, fuck you good man.
Have the time you want dude and take care of yourself.
Love your stuff Rando ❤
Peace man.
Hey Rando, i read & laugh thanks to you since years now, you officially became my fav artist since we live in a MMO showed up, sadly i’m a poor bitch so i never subscribe to you on patreon… ’til now ! You have my full support forever & i don’t give a fck about any kind of rewards tbh i just want you to be OK.
I can’t stand reading that you’re in this condition atm… take care of yourself, we lve you already for what you did, so don’t think too much about what you’ll do, we’ll support you no matter what !
Hey Rando! I love your weekly comics and your doodles, they put a smile on me everytime. 😀
I think it’s a good decision to let a little “hiatus” happen and I support you on every way you’ll go!
Of course your health is more important than anything else and if you need a break or some time for yourself, then it is fully understandable for everyone in my opinion. Just focus on what you want to do and don’t let someone interrupt or influence your work, I kind of know how you feel right now and I think it’s good that you inform us about what you want to do and what you are going to do. And sorry if my english isn’t good understandable or something ^^
