Thanks for the comments. :) The comics about addons obscuring your view particularly tickle me, since I've always had a battle between more info and good visibility... |

Oh well, shame on me for not doing more research (reading this thread) best of luck to everyone! |

Yours is pretty good, i liked how accurately captured maidens room instead of using a direct SS copy like others did. ... also "sod it" isnt that an aussie or british term? think i heard it on "Balls of steel" an aussie show. |

I have seen several excellent entries, be they hand drawn, CGI, or a compilation of screenshots. Just because an entry is comprised of edited screenshots, don't immediately assume that no work went into it. |
i wasnt exactly complaining about people with the SS version arts, i was simply uninformed and suprised that it was an accepted form, and wished i had known it sooner to participate in such a form, and i wasnt saying what you folks did with it wasnt work filled, but how i would have used ss art wouldnt have.

I thought I'd leave comments on the last entries as well.
Bouvi: Best entry from you. *** (perhaps a fourth * as well) You save the strained link to addons with the "hellfire" part. Duugu: I take it this is satire of some sort. Good art, personally didn't find the joke funny...might have just not gotten it though. ** Chauronity: This is called kissing up big time. ;) * Eberict: Not quite cartoony enough for my taste in a cartoon competition but I do like the humor since I've seen it happen as well. Not quite the last second like that but we went for loot for a guildmate and did the instance 7 times that night just for him...about 10 sec before the boss went down the 7th time he went offline, the boss dropped what he needed and we waited for 20 min before giving up. Five minutes later he came back online. ** Drazzii: Nice art, nice punchline. The "over the shoulder" set up is getting old but that's not your fault =) **** TS_CTMod: Had this idea as well. I like it. Something with the flow doesn't feel quite right. The part where he stands naked and says "Uh oh" gives away the joke to early...kinda takes away from the punchline effekt. Like telling a joke "One tomatoe said to the other 'Come on, catch up' after they crossed the streat and the other tomatoe got hit by a car." Zirconium176: This entry feels a bit lazy to be honest. Omen is not known to save anyone, I would like a build up before a comment like that, the art is not terrible good, no protagonist visible. Sorry, just doesn't do it for me. - chauronity: Not a great fan of the "let's promote wowinterface and get a key" theme that many entries have but you had a pretty funny punch there. *** Drazzii: Not for me. I think that the idea of "if only I had an addon I could have..." is good enough. I miss some personality in the characters or something to make the comic stand out a bit though. * lockman: Another "if only..." comic. You have great art in yours and get some extra points for that. The language isn't great in the speech bubbles though wich stops this comic from being great. *** -------------------------- Edit: Removed a comment I made in error. -------------------------- KiraDouji: To confusing, good idea. ** Hanakabo17: Can't read it so I can't comment. - chauronity: Nice idea, funny graphics. A bit to confusing, took me a while to get the punchline since I had to read all that text wich wasn't totally obvious. Perhaps have that text somewhere earlier? ** THUNDER_CHILD: Good idea but feels very rushed. Something that goes for many of these late entries. * Arathius: Would have liked to see more. Not quite funny enough for a 1 square comic in my humble opinion. ** AcidRain: Good idea but could use some more work to get the flow right. A bit to obvious in the text eg. "not even mods can make you..." ** Drazzii: Very unclear image. Takes to long to see what the image is of wich takes away from the punchline effect. + celebi23: I'm a big fan of murlocs so outside of the scope of the competition your murloc comics get **** Undel: This is a great entry through and through, in my opinion totally worth a win. ***** Vryce00: Great art, good idea. I do miss something to make the punshline a bit more clear. Good entry none the less ***½ Guillotine: Wasn't for me. One or two good jokes in there though. Psychophan7: Again a comic wich feels like sarcasm against players using addons in a competition on an addon site. So, not fan of the theme but other then that it's a good comic. *** MoongazeMods: Interesting idea, good enough character art. I really like the "was it good for you too?" smoke at the end. *** Now, good luck to all the entries. I promice I won't begrudge anyone winning, even if I don't agree =) I'll be happy for any and every one of those who wins. This is a great community =) Tomwolf |

The rule you are referring to: Submission deadline is 11:59pm pacific, Fri, 29 Aug, 2008.The timestamp of me closing the thread: 12:02 AMSo the reason why the rest of the entries shouldn't be allowed is ... ? |
I'm sorry Cairenn, I was wrong. I thought I had my forum time stamps changed to pacific but I didn't. =) I'm very glad I was wrong as well =) Thanks for pointing my error out for me =) Shouldn't have dobted you. My original post is now edited.

Cheers and congratulations
I have just re-read every one of the comics for about the 15th time. I think it is fantastic - the number of people who took the time to enter the contest. I wish you could all win and I am very, very glad that I do not have to make the choice. Congratulations to all of you. I think you are all winners :) |
TomWolf,
Thanks for the comments. I agree that my comic could have use another panel. In fact I had one but it didn't make it in. I was told about the contest around 3pm and between work and having to borrow a comp with a working version of photoshop I was luck to make the deadline at all. I had planned on a third panel of Illidan with the cat rubbing against his leg. I wasn't at all happy with the way it turned out and scrapped it. I might see if I can clean it up and re-post it for grins later. |
Thanks TomWolf. I'm glad that you enjoyed the comic :)

I've gone through the list and it's nervewrecking...I find 25 entries that I personally think deserves a win, 15 that stands out a bit extra and 3 wich I can't see not winning...I don't envy this decision.
