If you're logged in, does Quail's Random show your comics or does it automatically filter it out?

It's kinda addictive, always checking to see if your thumbs pop up in Random. Clicking the refresh button is like playing a Vegas slots machine for free. :p

I've yet to see my own thumbs in Random. If it will never pop up as long as I'm logged in, please tell me now.

I doesn't filter your own comics out, I just filtered out pretty much everything that couldn't be my comic in order to check this out, yeah, so you will feature on your own list of random comics, but shouldn't you be focusing on the comics that show up which aren't your own comic? :P

The answer is no. I've seen several of the comics I am affiliated with (as owner and assistant)pop up in Quail's random.

Quail's Random has been a tool that has allowed me to see many comics within DD that I would probably miss. I don't know what the mathematical probabilities are for the repeat of a single comic out of so many, but they seem to stay around a little while. At least, some do, for three or four refreshes then they're replaced it seems.

I think Quail's random really has opened my eyes! I love it!
there are a LOT of comics out there that I wouldn't have known HOW to search for that i've seen randomly popping up, and I have faved a lot of comics since then! XD
I think I've seen mine pop up once. o3o

I did the same thing, i filtered everything so that mine may pop up ^-^ but it still took a while, i despair that anyone would see it there, but it does happen i suppose. ^-^ it is addicting. Ive seen some cool things there but a bunch were on hiatus…

Quail's Random has to be the best feature on the new DD layout.

Let's say… there are 10 computers in the same room, and all 10 users had pressed F5 for refresh at the same time and the page loaded for the 10 users all at the same time, does those 10 users see the same comics on the 10 screens on Quail's Random or do they see different results?

10 at once?! Egad man, do you take pleasure in seeing DD crash?

Haha, I'm so new here.
