The whole idea is that this all turns bitchy, like the program, trust me, for those who aren't in the contest, it's highly entertaining.

Actually, my idea was that consistency would be rewarded. Those who make good strips and avoid making real stinkers will go further.

All you have to do is make a strip that is at least slightly better than the worst strip in the current round. Of course, with fewer and fewer people in each round, the bar gets raised ever so slightly with each go-around. In the end we should be left with a couple of people who are pretty darn good.

Kind of like dodgeball with comics.

I like Dodgeball. I was always the kid who aimed for the head instead of the body.

I also dislike the negativity involved in the format, but appreciate what it allows, which is a complete reversal of the norm. Usually, several great comics and one or two bad ones lose to the best comic... in this case, the great comics that would otherwise lose, actually win. Don't think of it as picking the loser. Just think of it as picking a whole bunch of winners.

Two for the Perm, two for kramer, and one for kaufman.

This is going to be a nailbiter...

I could make it interesting and vote for kaufman, but I think I'd rather vote for kramer.

Kramer_vs_kramer, you have created the Weakest Strip! Goodbye!

Asiangirl3 says, “Me love you long time, anyway!” The rule for the next round will be posted shortly.

Round 6

HELLO FLESHLINGS! TIME FOR ROUND SIX! TOBOR HOPES YOU WILL ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS HE ENJOYED CORNHOLING ANNE ROBINSON!

NEVER MIND. TOBOR DIDN’T ENJOY THAT. SHE WAS ALL… BRITTLE. ANYWAY, HERE IS THE RULE FOR THIS ROUND FROM KRAMER_VS_KRAMER:
[list]
[*]One of the characters in the strip must speak in some kind of pretend-foreign language. You know, like the Swedish Chef, Bumblebee Man in the Simpsons or the Channel 9 sketches in the Fast Show. All the other characters in the strip are banned from saying "What the fuck are you talking about?" or making any other Cowboy Physics reference.
[/list]
ENTRIES ARE DUE FRIDAY AT MIDNIGHT EASTERN TIME. RRRAAAARRRR!!

Every time Andy puts up a strip , it just increases the odds of him winning the whole contest.

Another class strip there Andy. Pure Quality.

Not a really strong effort, but it's very very late and I don't want to miss the deadline...

[ Posted comic does not exist ]

While I fully expect to be eliminated this round - the competition is just too goddamned steep - if by some miracle I am not, please make the next deadline Tuesday or something. I do not expect to get another chance to access the internet for the duration of my trip, and I don't get back home until late Monday.

Thank you for yer support.

Time to Vote!

RRRAAAARRR!!! REMEMBER, YOU ARE VOTING FOR THE WORST STRIP. ONLY VOTES FROM THE PARTICIPANTS IN THIS ROUND WILL BE COUNTED. THE DEADLINE IS TUESDAY AT MIDNIGHT ET. IF THE OUTCOME IS OBVIOUS, THE NEXT ROUND MAY START EARLIER. BUT TOBOR WILL MAKE SURE THAT IF LADYJ IS IN THE NEXT ROUND, SHE WILL HAVE TIME TO SUBMIT HER STRIP.

*COUGH* *cough* sputter…. Damn, talking like Tobor takes a lot out of you. Just a warning for you folks in case I am suddenly late with getting voting or a round started. My wife has had severe abdominal pains the past few days. The doctor seems to think that it might be her gall bladder, but the ultrasound was inconclusive… We’re following up with the surgeon on Tuesday. Obviously, if she goes under the laparoscope… well, I'll be busy, but I'll get back to you eventually.

Did I forget anything? Oh, yes… Who has made The Weakest Strip?

Again, I like all of them this round, but someone has to be the first bastard to fling a vote. I suppose I will be that bastard and vote for kaufman. Sorry mate - I like your strip, but not quite as much as the others.
