    I assume this is about a video game? Well, that should make Soul Sanctum happy. ;)

    Guess that's what he means by 'serving the Nine'.

    Makes sense. I mean, you don't want your dope threads caked in the blood of the Fallen. That's just gross.

    This is the rare comic where I have no idea what game it's referring to, but based on the looks of the blue guy in the first panel and Gabe's much-noted and inexplicable fascination, I'm going to guess Destiny.

    Yup. Strange coins are one of the things you collect and trade in for various loot.

    Yeah, I had no clue which game this was either. That was the other purpose of my post earlier.

    I feel like I'm alone, but I just don't understand the Destiny appeal. I thought the game was a big let down.

    You're not alone. A lot of people, including people who play Destiny like myself, think that the game is a big let down to what it could have been.

    Still fun though.

    Yah, looks like CloudFlare isn't serving the last 2 comics (to some countries?). Via a USA proxy it looks okay, but my home connection (Australia) doesn't; CloudFlare is saying the image is 0 bytes:

    I've requested that CloudFlare purge the last two comics and re-pull. Let me know if you guys continue seeing problems with these. Thanks for the heads up!

    @Kethenn I still can't see either, if it should have been working by now.

    Still can't see it. Clearly there is some anti-Australian PAX related conspiracy on order here!?!?!

    Possible workaround for Club PA members, you can at least read the strip by clicking the Hi-Res strip download button...

    2 weeks now and I still have not been able to see this strip (caught the previous one, but I suspect it was before CloudFlare cached it as it won't load now either). I am also in Australia.

    'The coins' being bolded and lack of a question mark are what made this comic great for me. And I can't articulate why.

    Three weeks and both comics are unavailable in New Zealand. http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2015/02/04/precautions

    I wonder if @Kethenn is still watching this thread.

    Ummmm

    Not to be a debbie downer, but I'm in NZ and can load the comics okay, and have never had a problem in loading them.

    Works fine from both my home and work computers.
