This is the complete transcript for the dynamic comic [[1350: Lorenz]], formatted following a {{w|tree structure}}, as you can see from the table of contents below. A permalink is provided for every panel, at least at the end of a comic, as not all the storylines that were available originally are available today. Note that, if there are more than four choices, a permalink is not enough to get to the first panel of that chain. Similarly, the choices you have when you choose a permalink won't come in the same order. To be certain to have all choices, there are permalinks on all steps of a story tree. __NOEDITSECTION__
  
This is a valiant effort to create a transcript for the continually growing dynamic comic [[1350: Lorenz]]. There's a {{w|tree structure}} at the bottom of the page to easily understand the structure of the entire transcript ([[#skip-to-bottom-anchor|Jump to bottom]]). Expand below if you want to contribute building the transcript.

__TOC__
  
'''A permalink is needed''' (at least at the end of a comic) for every transcript because not all the storylines that were available originally are available today and without the link no one can check if the transcript here is wrong. Note that even from a permalink - if you click back, you may not even get the possibility you came from, if there are more than four choices - like in the first panel, but for instance also in the second panel of the refresh choice. Similarly, the choices you have when you choose a permalink won't come in the same order, and if there are more than four, you will again not be certain to have the choice you wish for - to be certain to have all choices, you need to save permalinks on all steps of a story tree. If you complete a part of the transcript, then please add a note and a date on which this occurred like this: "This branch was complete as of 2014-04-20. (Taken from the ''Your computer is literally haunted'' branch of the BSD story on ''Why is Python importing Skynet?'')".
 
  
Typically, there will be four options. Then the version below can be inserted. After the last line of text, followed by a '''Permalink''' continue like this:

This is the complete transcript for the dynamic comic 1350: Lorenz, formatted following a tree structure, as you can see from the table of contents below. A permalink is provided for every panel, at least at the end of a comic, as not all the storylines that were available originally are available today. Note that, if there are more than four choices, a permalink is not enough to get to the first panel of that chain. Similarly, the choices you have when you choose a permalink won't come in the same order. To be certain to have all choices, there are permalinks on all steps of a story tree.
