Stepping Out of the Tournie

Chriz · 07-01-2009, 5:08 AM

Folks, I am stepping out of the tourney because I believe that my internet hosts will be doing a fast one on me within the next few days, in which I will more than likely switch to another ISP. Due to this possibility I am taking myself out of the competition now so someone else can take my place in the second round.

There are many incredibly talented people this year in the comp, and I would like one of them to have an opportunity now to wow us all, rather than me finding out that my internet is off randomly, and no one takes my place.

Its a pain in the hole for me really, missed out on this baby for two years, eventually get myself into one, and not have the chance to do a proper comic. Ah well, I shall await next year eagerly with a smiley face noting it in my diary.

Best of luck to all the second rounders, and Charlie, make some interesting matches won't you? ;)

Shame to lose you man.

Just a precaution, better not take the risk when there are worthy artists at the moment.

Well, i'd sure like to see more comics from you, considering i think you've done about one in this entire tournament. Maybe you could post comics picking random fights with the remaining competitors or something.

Ahha, I might provide graphic commentary.

Did you get that call from comcast that says you're using up too much bandwidth and if you don't stop they'll cancel your service or something like that?

No, I have been having arguments with Virgin Media since the start of my Contract about my deposit last year, which I paid for, which is on my copy of the contract, and theirs, in which every manager I have spoken to about the matter, has eventually agreed I am in the right. And yet, every month, I get billed it, and I am not paying it, and said so a little harshly to my now daily call from India.

So, I think my service will be off soon, and I am fucking off else where.

I'm really sorry to see you go Chriz. You were just as capable of making a decent comic as everyone else here.

That's it, I'm very tempted to make myself the odd one out in the next round and make an open challenge or some shit. That, or we have 10 people going in and everything evens out. Hooray!

Damn, and just when you thought you were going to make it in the Tourney.
