Okay, I have done SOMETHING with the comments section...
Now when you comment, a new window should pop up. It isn't perfect, but at least there are pages now, and you don't have to keep reloading to get to the newest comment...
This is all VERY annoying.

sweet. go to me blog! nice comments section btw. oh and i did a book review for the death bringer! a good one too!(on me blog)
Dear me, this will take some getting used to...
pretty cool how you changed the comments, i think i should do this on my blog.
death bringer book review is on the second page, or "older posts"
Oh, look at this. Just like you said... well suppose there's always some kinks to work out when you change something drastically.
So Derek, tell me about the various injuries as a result of martial arts. I'm currently sitting here with all the knuckes on my right hand bruised becuse I failed to wear hand gear when breaking a board. I was amazed how fast the brusises appeared. I'm talking seconds. So, I will go and ice my little hand now, meh.

Hi Derek! Will there ever be a global contest? I'm asking this because I live in a backwater country in South East Asia, where your only fans are people who had the unfortunate fortune to move here, and even though there are quite a few of us, were very little compared to practically any other country in the world. Due to that, we never really get to join contests.
Hey people.
Hey when will Skulduggery Pleasant book 7 come out in Australia?? Ive read the first 6 books too many times i think i know all the words! I love your books I hope you continue writing because your books are the only books I read. <3
The australian comes out in September. In some places, the'll even hand it out early
naww i cant wait till September :(
I know >sigh<
Do u know when he is coming to Australia?
no sorry
No one seems to know

I started a few weeks ago, and now i can't stop
haha ive always read Derek's blogs but ive only just had the enthusiasm to sign up today
i kinda think the comments thingy was easier before, but that's just me

Nope, I'm American.
You don't get many Skulduggery books up there, do you?
Unfortunately no. I'm pretty sure it's only the first three books that are printed here. Everything else is imported.
That sucks. You have my pitty
Thanks. Yeah, it's pretty annoying, I've never met another fan in real life.
Thanks. Yeah, it's pretty annoying, I've never met another fan in real life.

LONG LIVE THE OLD BLOG!
LONG LIVE PAGES!
AND FIRSTS!
I will never forget firsts...
No one could forget all your firsts Sparky.
Got to hell Izz.
(Not literally)
Check out The Straight Jackets, I think we need a motto.
Thing is I've already been there. It's terribly hot but good old Aus tops it.
hmmmm. I'll think on it.
Well of course you've been there, you're a ghost.
PICK A MOTTO, ANY MOTTO! Especially the second one.
Well of course you've been there, you're a ghost.
PICK A MOTTO, ANY MOTTO! Especially the second one.
Well of course you've been there, you're a ghost.
PICK A MOTTO, ANY MOTTO! Especially the second one.
Why'd that post three times?
Anyway, gotta go.
Right then. I stick by the first one.
Servus.
Yes Izz, I do know that skullduggery is underhanded, sly trickery. And it is a skill that only the truly insane can master.
I guess that makes sense, considering sociopaths.
But I still like the first one best.
FIRST COMMENT FOR ME YAYZERS
goldengod... u look like my dad....
but u are better of course......
(whimpers) if u come to aus any time soon, make SURE you come to adeliade coz we r mad 4 u trust me!!
*yawn*
Auf wiedersehen alle.
It's a pity there isn't a way to combine the best features of both comment modes - the reply feature of the new version and the separate pages (and better spacing) of the old one. Still, I do like this one better, even with having to use the pop-up!
DEREK YOU ARE BRILLIANT!! YOU BRILLIANT MAN YOU!!
Right off to school with me!!
Bye!!
Is there anyone here?
TESTING TIME!!!
It appears that the text is blue...
How odd. The text on the pop up is blue, but on the log it remains black.
Intriguing...
weird but convenient
Derek Landy you are a genius for coming up with skulduggery pleasant!!!
hey anyone here
hi... anyone here
anyone damnit
oh well by everyone or no one anyway BY DEREK GOLDEN GOD :)
this is both strange and fun at the same time
........
too bad my pop-up blocker doesn't like it XP
YAY!!!
Any one there?
Youpoor thing having to organise your fan mail, so hard but the effort is appreciated
This is fantastic!
...Now, how'd you DO it?
This is probably really ungrammatical. I think I should go to bed now...
It's so much better now, but I do miss the old blog! :L oh well thanks Derek for making it better than how it was before! :)
Interesting.
So, I'll be able to see new comments without re-loading? Cool.
Hi Ayesha
well this is slightly confufling you know but oh wells.
well tiered and my eyes are itchy :O
oh and what the hell are HTML tags??????? still confufled.
ahhhhh bloody red squigly lines!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who cares about spelling outside of school
*scowl*
so hi derek haven't been on for ages (excluding yesterday and some other times)
I will leave on a happy note for some, the rain has stopped (the not some are ducks, frogs, and all things that like rain)
Oh gosh. New technology. SOOOO not my strong point. But anyway, hi everyone :)
xo
Hi Vita
Ho Sabrina
Hi you to!
POTATOES
Hey guys :)
x
Yes, I think thats better than the load more thing.
Wait- there is a newest button! Not here, because there are just 147 comments yet, but at the blog entry before! YAY!
Hello...?
Hmm.... I've seen this around before.
Anyway although I prefer the old system at least I can actually comment now.
So that's a great postive right there.
HI all- I prefer the old comments section too, but Blogger may have thrown that out. Pity.
Molly asked about martial arts injuries. Thankfully, I've really only had the usual cuts and bruises that come from getting punched in the face, and nothing more dramatic. Apart from a broken tooth. Which was HORRIBLE.
Milo, a global competition isn't a bad idea at all. It'd have to be later in the year, though. I'll look into it.
Kallista was asking what I'm going to write when Skulduggery is over. To be honest, I don't know. I doubt I'll do a prequel, because I just don't like them, and as for a spin-off featuring another character... The fact is, I don't know if the world I write about will even be around after Book 9...!
One good thing about the new comments section is that now the little pictures by your names are bigger, so for the first time I'm realising how pretty Suzanne Korb is. Hi Suzanne!
Oh my goodness I'm on line when Derek is!
That's like the third time ever.
HI DEREK! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY!
THE OPPORTUNITY IS HERE BUT I'M CEASING TO TAKE IT!
Oh. Yes. Let me tell you something amazing.
You Oh Wondeful Golden God have brought about love through this blog of yours.
Two bloggers Niall and Ven, met through this blog, fell in love and now they are meeting up in real life at ComicCon this February.
Doesn't that make you feel warm inside?
Also umm.... things to say things to say...
I watched the Lion King today... no not that interesting. I set fire to a work bench accidently in Chemistry.
OH! OH! YES I KNOW! I GOT A POEM PUBLISHED IN A REAL ACTUAL BOOK!
Octaboona.. impressive! Both about the poem and about setting fire to your chemistry lab!
And Niall and Ven, eh? Ah, I do what I can to facilitate young love but who knows what good I TRULY do? Finally, I have proof...
DEREK, HI!!
How many words now (in book seven)
And do you know a title yet??
Valice, I shall let you know when I've reached 25,000! As for a title, I think I may have one... But I'm not telling!
Cool! Derek, i've read your books since Playing with Fire was released, but I think that the books keep on getting better!
Hi Derek!!!!!!
You still on??????
Whilst we're on the topic of love you have brought into existance through your blog not one couple but five.
Although Niall and Ven are the only ones who live close enough to meet up.
Just for your information the five couples happen to be
Niall and Ven
Kallista and myself
Lego and Genesis
Pyro and Red
Aquila and Dragona
Also repeating the request of Lego and Gen, they are getting blog married some time this summer and they would love it if you could give one of them away.
I really am just speechless right now.
Also I now have been referred to by name by you eleven times now.
I do indeed keep a list of your awesome comments. I treasure them dearly.
By the way, I think this new comment section is great!
By the way, I think this new comment section is great!
Me reading the previous comments:
DEREK'S TALKING TO PEOPLE!!!
COME BACK TO AUSTRALIA!!!
The last time you came my librarian developed a distaste for you, because you wouldn't come to my school, on account of it being an all girls high school.
BUT I GO THERE!!!
And trust me, if you say ANYTHING about coming back, I will begin each school day on my knees, BEGGING HER TO GET YOU TO COME.
SO PLEASE COME BACK!
Octaboona, it warms my heart...!
Melanie, you have wonderful taste in writers, you know that??
Hi Pink Rose!
Hi ShayShay01- welcome!
Ok, now I'm going to spend an hour with my nieces, and then I'm going training. Later on tonight, I'll be back writing.
Probably.
Sparky...! I don't know WHY there was a problem going to an all-girls school. The fact is, I prefer going to all-girls schools. They're just so much more FUN, and I have such a laugh.
I think, for my next Australian tour, whenever that may be, I ought to make it clear to my Australian publishers that I rather like visiting all girls schools, thank you very much!
Derek??????
You on??????
OH PLEASE BE ON
Oh! I know what I should have said when I had the chance.
Should I be worried that my Friend Get Friend books haven't arrived yet? Because I am.
Have fun with your neices. I'm sure they shall fall over a lot and you will be amused. At least that's how it normally goes right? :D
Oh Mr Landy! I'm glad you got your blog sorted!
Please say you read my handy advice on your last post (it was rather handy, wasn't it?)
If not, it's coolbeans too :P
Yes this comment system is definitly WAY better :D
Hi Quinn!
Heya Pink! Hi Octa (if you're around)!
How are you two?
I wonder how long it is before they update the popout window too...
Hi Quinn!
I'm off to the chat.
Hullo!
*wonders if Derek did read her little post*
Ah well, it matters not :P
See ya, Pink!
I'm good.
I think you know all my current news. At least you have read all my new posts.
Did you read about Top Hat Tuesday and the setting fire to my workbench with cyclohexene?
Derek Landy?????
Bye Pink!
Also which little comment is this?
Actuall I'm gonna stay here cuz NO ONE is on chat.
I did read Top Hat Tuesday etc. T'was all very exciting but my fingers were frozen at the time so I couldn't write a comment very well :P (What? It's cold, don't judge me :P )
And it was a comment describing the changes to blogger etc. and a way in which he could fix it (this way, actually :P )
Okee dokee, Pink! 'Tis always good to have you here :D
Dammit. In the short 5 minutes in which I ate my dinner, Derek Landy left. :(
Awww :( That's a shame, Rose. Well, maybe he'll come back, some other nice little day.
(Sorry I keep switching names with you... I haven't been on in a while)
It's fine really :P We've been experiencing the cold weather too.
Ah. Derek must either have read it or you are just that awesome :D
Welcome back Pink!
That's a shame :(
Welcome back Pink!
That's a shame :(
Also this new comment system is much more prone to double posting.
Oh, there is actually people on chat.
Either or :P
Gah, I've been so busy lately! School and such...
I've to go now. Do homework. :(
brb
I feel like that comment was a bit to short to qualify as a comment. So I wrote this bit.
Yeah, I double posted on your blog by accident, and now I've deleted it :P Now it looks like I said something fishy in your comments section :P REG
(Do we still REG? We should so bring that back)
Okilee dokilee.
I'm gonna get started on some work, will check back here occasionally.
I am returned. For a short time atleast.
Ooops. Forgot to go back to my Octaboona account.
As you are aware I was March's Secret Santa.
I saw it when it was a double post so I knew it wasn't fishy :P
Oh and yes REG is still a thing.
Thriving and happy it is too.
How alternative am I?
Hmm... that made no sense as it cut out the first bit of my comment.
Never mind. Twas an attempt at alternatism.
Also have to go now and eat supper.
Anyone on????
Hmm. Well, have a nice supper. I must be off to play piano and stuff- sorry I missed you- I got caught up :(
Sorry to leave you The Shadow Ripper (Rim) *hands him/her a cookie because I've never met you* I'm going to call you Rim, okay? It was lovely to meet you, but farewell, Rim!
bye....
