Is there a specific time of day that new episodes will be uploaded? For example, if a new page is set to come out on a specific date, is it also slated to come out at a certain hour on that date, or does it just get posted whenever it is finished? I would like to know or at least have a general idea, so that I don’t check the site every 15 minutes with my OCD Axe Cop addiction.

If there isn’t a fixed time that the site updates, it might be something to consider. This might mean putting the episode up a little later than planned if it is finished early, but that could be time spent getting ahead.

[Note: I’m not Ethan, and he might chime in with a better/more accurate answer.]

There is not a set time for updates, partially because of the sporadic nature of working with a 6 year old. When Ethan has lots of material and is just working from that the episodes usually seem to come out in the afternoon (often between 1-4pm PDT). Sometimes they come out really early though, or later. There’s no fixed time. (When there’s loads of material Ethan was trying to put out an Ask Axe Cop every T/T and an Axe Cop episode every M/W/F. We’ll see if this resumes now that he has more material from Malachai again.)

Here are my suggestions for you and anyone else who doesn’t want to check the site every few minutes (I totally do, but I don’t mind it ):
-Check daily at 5pm PDT or so, most updates are done sometime in the day before then. (Though something might have existed for minutes-hours before you knew about it.)
-Follow Axe Cop on twitter. New postings and so on are announced there, amongst other things.
-Subscribe to the RSS feed(s) (Whole site, Axe Cop, Ask Axe Cop)

If, at some point in the future, a standard posts-are-made-at-this-time time is established I will post something in here (and I’m sure there’ll be stuff about it all over). In the meantime we’ll all just have to deal with the nonlinear publishing process that comes with the nonlinear mind of a 6 year old.

The cost of a new duvet may be difficult to justify but for the most comfortable sleep the investment is justified. When used with a new mattress topper you’ll awake feeling refreshed.
