Tournament '09 - Battle Comments

[CharlieH]

Talk about the battles here. Make sure you actually say something though. No pointless posts.

[Fruitality]

Okay so this is where we comment battles and that is what I shall do.

Beep's first comic was sweet and Dick Man's face was awesome. Hopefully he'll be able to keep up with the dick jokes though because I think his character is great.

[exetra]

Hats! I really enjoyed the way you paced the fight and how you introduced your character.

The little frame down the bottom right was great!

[WoeStorm]

I'm looking forward to more of yours and Beep's fight, Exetra. Two great artists up against each other :hmm:

If the user Scrotemeal was more active then there would be an easy joke for you guys.

[exetra]

Trust me, there are more dick puns than you can possibly imagine.

[paraskeet]

Whoa, I had no clue Beep was such an awesome artist! I can't wait for Exetras retaliation!

Also, nice panel on the bottom Hats. The small jokes like that are the ones I love best.

[Chriz]

[Hats of]

Brilliant opening Hats, loved the last panel.

[lolguy]

I wish I could see beeps comic, but I keep getting error shit when I try to open his link.

Great comic though Hats. The little panel in the corner was nice.

[Hats of!]

Thanks guys. Yeah, I suspected that the last panel would "do a homerun". And I liked Beeps comic too.

[ThePopeofPie]

Beeps comic really good, maybe a bit short but the rest of it makes up for it.
And a point of note. Beep is female.

[_Atheistic_]

Great job Happy Palooza, great setup. I also liked your reference to Flowers for Algernon, that was clever. Looking forward to what happens next.

[Dartful_Dawger]

Yeah Happy's was really good. The art was very well done, even though it was simplistic. It made me take a second look at mine.

[Aramon]

Hahaha Dartful, that was a good first comic, I liked it. Sorry to hear about your computer though. One question, are we allowed to do that to our opponents bodies? Lol, seems a little extreme.

[Dartful_Dawger]

I guess.
If he wants his arm back, he can find a way to mend himself in the next comic.

[exetra]

I guess opponents can just grow their limbs back when it comes to the retaliation.

EDIT: motherfucker.

[Tweek]

Oh gee, I think I enjoy Happy on paper more than Happy in flash. It just looked so comical.

[Aramon]

Mustache, very nice comic. I laughed at the end. I love it when people make their comics interact with the enivironment you make. Hence my opponent's character being tossed through the walls of several panels. Keep up the good work guys! :)

[Scrotemeal]

Hey. :mad:

I really really like Arielcz facial expressions. They're GREAT.

[HailCrest]

I think that Happy's drawings are exceptionally good. He's got the cartoon-style down, and using cross-hatching to color makes it look better.

On the other hand, Urser's first comic is marginally funnier than Happy's first, and is extremely creative. Although I say that the current Ginny is really creepy. I mean seriously. Cigarette, tits, sixpack, flower... don't add up.

[exetra]

Pigeon tits :wail:

[WoeStorm]

Exetra you're crying over pigeon tits when the level of detail in your comic is just that huge? Liked the puns though.

[Clix]

I loved the cameo Happy.

[Fruitality]

Exetras comic.. so much dick, so much detail :drool:

[lazerwaffle]

the "stiff competition" line was perfect in Exetra's comic.

[Mustache]

Panel 8 of musicalidiot's comic was gorgeous.

[Inseln]

Musicalidiot's comic had me laughing so hard, great art and hilarious jokes!

[WoeStorm]

MusicalIdiot that panel 8 (i think it was) has to be the best thing in the competition.

[Beep]

So far.

[exetra]

Happy the clown's package is marvelous :hmm:

[Beep]

It's a present to all our eyes. :hmm:

[Hats of!]

MusicalIdiot = Brilliance.

[HailCrest]

If Pike drank that much O2 shouldn't he have like.. blown up in flames?

[exetra]

There's too many comics without fighting. Your characters are supposed to be beating the piss out of each other, not shooting sticky wads over each other*.

*Unless your character is Dick Man.

[WoeStorm]

Inseln, are you aware that your characters scar looks a lot like a Swastika?

[paraskeet]

I love Urser for that cameo from red-chested bird boy.

[Mustache]

We'll never know how happy vs. urser will end!

[WoeStorm]

Beep and Exetra keep going back and forth as to who has my vote. I don't want either of them to go.

[Laurence]

Mustache your latest one was great. The bit with the dog made me laugh, possibly much more than I should have. Urser's most recent comic was fantastic as well.

[Mustache]

I really like Hats' fight scenes. Well done.

[Pitabread]

Norik and Dawger, great stuff, your battle is probably my favorite out of the first round so far. I loved the sheriff's meal Dawger.

[Chriz]

Can I open a thread with a poll just for myself? It looks fun :)

[Laurence]

Who says anyone will vote for you :lol:

[Chriz]

I didn't, but an opportunity to vote for myself is awesome.

[Tweek]

Shouldn't BreakTheWalls stay in since it was agreed upon that Matt would go first?
It isn't really his fault that he didn't.

[Chriz]

I quite agree, Break The Walls should stay in.

Plus, if both of them go out, we have uneven numbers.

[CharlieH]

OH SHI- Sorry. Rectifying that shit.

[BreakTheWalls]

I feel so cheap now. I'm gonna go first in the next round this time and show off my skillz. You never know, I might drag Matterialize's character in for great justice.

There will still be 11 people going through to the next round, so who's getting the bye?

[Dartful_Dawger]

I'd say the person who wins by the biggest margin, but idk.

[BreakTheWalls]

That's what I suggested. It's only fair the better man of the 11 is protected.

[Dartful_Dawger]

There's too many comics without fighting. Your characters are supposed to be beating the piss out of each other, not shooting sticky wads over each other*.

*Unless your character is Dick Man.

Considering that's one of my character's powers, I'd say shut up.

[Laurence]

If there's a problem with odd number in the round, we could always do a poll for the eliminated contestants and whoever wins can even it up.

[Aramon]

I like that idea. I don't want to be gone! I will cry and all of you won't feel bad for me. Haha :lol: (It's Pacman)

[BKS]

So where does one go to view said battles?

[Aramon]

So where does one go to view said battles?

The threads marked with an 'EVENT' Tag. It'll say 'Round 1 (NAME) VS. (NAME). If you go there, you can see the comics and the battles between people. It's here in the Comic Tournament Sub-Forum.

[abbey]

I also like this idea.

[exetra]

The Sherriff can spit semen?! :aaa:

[Dartful_Dawger]

only when he's guarding the prison

[Chriz]

In terms of getting the bye, the runners up after the first round voting should be placed into a poll.

[Aramon]

only when he's guarding the prison

I want to go to that prison. :drool:

[Chriz]

Exetra's last comic there, he is my favourite to win this. Holy crap, genius.

[Aramon]

My God Exetra. Who comes up with this shit? Completely hysterical, I think your last come strip has beent he best of the tourney.

[WoeStorm]

Don't worry Beep, you'll always have my heart <3

[Beep]

I honestly don't even know if I want to vote for myself.

Fuck.

[CuntMuppet]

Explosive finish from Dickman :lol:
I'm torn who to vote for they were both awesome in that battle really. Dodger and Norik has been pretty cool, Dodgers MJ pun may already be ridiculously overused but he used it pretty well. Looking forward to what Norik comes back with :hmm:

[abbey]

I'm sad that some of the best competitors were pitted against each other in the first round. Urser, Happy, Exetra, and Beep all deserve to go through.

[WoeStorm]

I say Exetra and Beep should both go through instead of someone having a Bye.

[hollywood_maggot]

Sucks that Chips dropped out, he was my favourite out of everyones. But both Happy and Urser should have been able to go through.

[exetra]

Exetra lives in fear of the day we all get bored of dicks.

We all know that day will never come. :smug:

[CharlieH]

:ugh:

Idea everyone

How about, the person who can post the best single panel hating on Matts character gets the bye to round 3?

[CuntMuppet]

So the losers from here who didn't deserve to lose would basically have another shot? Could be good, but wouldn't it leave the numbers un-even? Unless there's like a 3-way final or something, I like it cus alot of these people don't deserve to go out so early.

[Dartful_Dawger]

Yeah, I don't want another three way.

in the finals, that is.

EDIT: You could also just give Urser the bye, since he's the reigning champ.

[Urser]

I kinda want to get knocked out before the finales. I don't want to smother people with my immense talent.

[Hats of!]

The three way finale was fucking epic. I didn't mind it at all.

[Aramon]

:ugh:

Yes!!

No, the winners of round one you phenomenal retard.

[abbey]

So many amazing comic artists are already being eliminated, why not put all the losers into a wildcard poll? Whoever wins gets into round 2.

[Norik]

A wildcard poll seems like way less of an ordeal.

[CuntMuppet]

No, the winners of round one you phenomenal retard.

Well you could've worded it more clearly, I interpreted it more along the lines of Abbey's idea, especially considering the posts before were complaining about the people who were getting knocked out earlier than they deserve.

[Fluzz]

CHIPS, its a shame you're out, you have real potential and your comics made me laugh out loud. Same goes for musical idiot, good luck in the future rounds.

[JW]

I am in support of Abbey's suggestion. There were some great artists going up against other great artists, and it's sad to see one of them having to be kicked out so early in the competition.

[exetra]

The way I see it, a win is a win. I know it sucks having good artists leave but hopefully it will make the voting easier in the next rounds depending on who gets paired up.

Wildcard poll sounds good for this round, though.

[CharlieH]

We'll see how it goes right up to point where i'm drawing the names out of a hat for round 2. Shit keeps changing.

[jewishjosh]

I like the idea of a wildcard poll for the losers, the one with the most votes filling the spot that would otherwise give someone a bye. Charlie, I don't know how you managed to suggest picking one winner and giving them a bye while everyone has been clamouring for skilled losers to be able to continue instead.

Also, don't lock the voting threads when the polls close. You should leave them open for a little while for comments.

[exetra]

Heh. Was that a less-than-subtle jab at Hat's drawing style, Urser?

[Urser]

It was now.

Oh MusicalIdiot, your comics are so zany. Also love the recurring boy who gets stabbed. :hmm:

[Beep]

Oh god Hats Of, that was amazing.

And Urser looks pretty much how I thought he'd look.

[Fruitality]

A fat child with giant erect nipples?

But yeah Hats' comic was great.

[Beep]

A fat, balding child with giant erect nipples.

[Hats of!]

Thanks. I believe I saw an image of Urser on DeviantArt doing a :3, so that's why I gave him a :3. The balding man child with erect nipples part is really just a very lucky guess.

[gizzalove]

Urser should go back to cutesy drawing. I don't care what other people say. Also amazing comic hats!

EDIT: I just read musical idiots comic, good job. I was just wondering in panel 2 is that me and abbey making out?

[abbey]

I think it is.

[exetra]

Hah! I simply thought abbey was a dude when I first saw it...

I think your art is pretty good, but you really need to figure out a better way of uploading it. I like the idea of adding text on the computer, but I could barely see or understand anything that was going on.

[Beep]

I had to ask... :C

Yeah I was suppose to get a scanner on Friday but... But someone didn't want to pay their part of the rent, but they decided a surround sound system is a better investment.
Thanks for the compliment I myself think it really looks like crap, I really don't know how to use photoshop other than a few things. And since my webcam sucks I have to spend half of my time stabbing the paper so that it comes out.

[Android]

You could always go to a kinkos or a public library or something. Don't you have any friends with what you need? If not you could try a digital camera, it will at least come out slightly more clear.
I'm not really complaining about the software you use so much as the picture quality.

[RessXalcor]

I really don't have friends with scanners(They're all games game GAMES, but if I ever need a monitor they'll have 3), I don't own a digital camera either(the only person who does can't let me borrow his because he's too busy listening to his awesome surround sound). And I didn't know kinko's scanned things, I just thought they printed things, theirs one near by... I hope.

[Laurence]

Urser should go back to cutesy drawing. I don't care what other people say. Also amazing comic hats!

Yes. I want Urser to draw like he always has. MusicalIdiot's comic was great, so was Hats, and Exetra's. A good start to Round 2.

[Tweek]

Urser's was much more creative this round than before.

[Beep]

Inseln, are you implying something about my character? xD

[Dartful_Dawger]

What the fuck Urser?
:/

[Hats of!]

Okay guys, now when voting between me and Urser you should keep in mind that I represent the people. I'm Hats, a simple Explosmateer, compared to that filthy elite that is Urser, URSER THAT FAILED US! That is all.

MusicalIdiot's was good. I'd say the first one took too much from round 1.

[Urser]

Let us not forget about Mr.Hat's last tournament.

EDIT: And I'm loving Arielcz and MI's fight.

[Hats of!]

Let us not forget that Urser is a big doodie mouth.

Urser isn't elite. He lost his access almost as quickly as he got it.

[Fruitality]

Inseln's was great. I had a feeling she was gonna do something along the lines of Piane, too.

When I hear the word 'piano' I just instantly think of that Simpsons Episode... It's weird...


Heh heh periods...

[exetra]

Alright, me (almost) forfeiting due to a lack of time and "not caring" is a one-off. Lack of time was due to me being at girlfriend's place last night and thinking I'd have to spend all of today and tonight working on something that I ended up finishing at her house on my laptop. Not caring was due to the misconceived lack of time. WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

Gizza, I wouldn't forfeit a singing contest even if I got cancer and AIDS. :hmm:
