I only use this site to check on scanlations, since the database is really helpful, and the updaters do a good job. Usually i check many times a day, i check the forums more often though.

I do it several times a day.

I don't really know how to use the RSS feed, or I would use it.

I went once a day. It really depends on the day, though. If I have nothing to do, then many times a day. Otherwise, it's just once.

You should have had "every five minutes" as an option.

"Many times a day", but it really depends on the day & how much other stuff I have going on, and how much my boys are using the computer. Most days, though, I check here pretty often.

A few other sites I check 1-2 times per week, I suppose....

I'll do it when I remember because a lot of mangas take FOREVER to update.
After a while I get tired of checking only to find out there's nothing new.
When I discover a new manga I like and I've already read all of the ones released then I'll check all the time until I accept the fact that it's not going to update anytime soon. cry

This is the only website I use actually. smile

Only when I remember, because I rarely follow series. I usually let chapters pile up before I read the manga again.
I'm also too lazy to use RSS feeds.

Same. On both counts.

If I'm in the forum and there are no new/interesting posts to respond to, I'll check it then too. So I guess I check a lot. Though I don't use any other sites to look for new releases.

I check once every second/third day since that is how often the releases page gets moved back. smile I don't read as much manga as I used to, then I checked several times a day. smile

I chose "Many times a day", since I check this site's RSS every time I open Thunderbird and I know I do that more than once a day, but definitely not hourly.

Also, for the scanlation groups of series I follow I have their websites bookmarked in a separate folder that I'll open all at once every day or so just to check and to give their sites a couple hits.

I only check this site... Well I do check evil empire, but that's only when I download/ or wanna see some yaoi additions (they have it on a seperate page bigrazz ) so... MU is my main conection to new releases Oo laugh

I check it about once a day.
Sometimes more, let's say, when I check it early in the morning , I'd check it later so check. But mostly just once I guess...

As soon as I'm not doing a specific thing I reload every web page, including MU. Which means about 2-3 times /hour when I'm on the pc.
