Chicka's last CC was fun - because it was easy to enter, what with 2 out of 3 panels being written for you. That, and the fact I've been minding the Lolita League, where I've had to make up loads of rules at once gave me the inspiration for CC 213.

So I've decided to make it easier and/or more fun for you by letting you choose the rules. So, all ya needs ta do is:

Make a strip that complies with any Three rules from the following Nine:
[list]
[*] The rules of the Comic Contest that was active when you first registered your account have to apply. Thanks/apols. to Kajun Firefly
[*]Your favourite Stripcreator member has opened a fast food chain.
[*]One panel is in rhyme OR One panel uses a palindrome
[*]Exploding Dog Stickman has been elected President/Prime Minister...

[*] Absinth.

[*]Kaddar chimp lands on the moon
[*]One line of dialogue, or, the title reads: "A series of unlikely explanations" OR"It was like that when I got here!"OR "I've been converted to penis!"
[*] When Movie Titles Collide! E.G.: Gone With The Wind versus Blazing Saddles or Barbarella versus Saving Private Ryan. You pick 'em.
[*] A video game character features.

[/list]

There are weightings for certain combinations of rules. There's one magic combination that guarantees you a win. But the odds of that are about 217 to 1.

Other than that, pick the 3 rules that fit in with the funniest strip you can make and get busy!

Judging Friday night/Saturday morning SC/EST time.

3 Great Rules That Taste Great Together by UnknownEric 9-28-03

Mr. Knickers, you are the first chimp to land on the moon. And as President of the Unit... wait... can you pan the camera over there? What's that?!?! Welcome to Chicka's Moon Pies. Can I take your order? It was like that when I got here.

I think the three rules chosen are obvious.

CC 213: Donkey Dong by Big_Evil_Dave 9-28-03

I don't believe this shit. The Absin-th'Tnisab Federation is building a deadly Transformation Ray on the moon... ...and they send me alone with a stupid monkey. I guess I'm going to have to save the fucking planet by myself. See you, "Ensign Kong". I've been converted to penis! I'd grab some barrels and help you out, but I'm just a stupid monkey.

Absinth Makes The Heart Grow Fonder by choadwarrior 9-29-03

If you just wait one moment, I'll get your package. GO, DOG! The customs declaration says it's a "collector's bottle." What's inside? A series of unlikely explanations. Whatever...here you go. MY PRECIOUS!

Conspicuous By His Absinth by choadwarrior 9-29-03

Dammit! I'm mad. You started without me! I guess I'll go pour myself a drink. When did you put up the wallpaper? It was like that when I got here.

Absinth of Malice by choadwarrior 9-29-03

Your fish tank is like the Matrix. They just swim around and don't realize their entire world is just a reproduction of their natural environment. This is so cool. I've been staring at it for like ten minutes. It almost seems like we're inside. Wo Nemo! Toss a lasso to me now!

Absinth Minded by choadwarrior 9-29-03

I can't believe we drank that whole bottle of absinth. Well, it was a small bottle. How much did it cost again? $92.00 So you probably won't be doing that again anytime soon. Tuesday is payday!

CC 213: A series of unlikely explanations by kramer_vs_kramer 9-29-03

Hi, welcome to Boinky Burger™. How may I help you? I'd like to complain about this BoinkyMeal™ I ordered five minutes ago. What's the problem? I only ordered one burger, but you've given me three hundred. And all but four taste of shit. Sir, I'm afraid that's Boinky Burger™'s company policy. Say, are you Super Mario? No, I'm actually feeling quite ill, thanks to you and your crappy burgers.

Should I be complimented or insulted?......

CC 213: Romeo and Juliet and The Exorcist by kaufman 9-29-03

The void in my heart, O Romeo, for too long I feeleth something absinthe, but now two strong forces fill me, and thy forbidden love is but one. And what, mayhap, could the other be? IT IS I, MASTER OF HELL, WHO WILL REJOICE IN YOUR DEMISE IN ACT V! WATCH AS I SPIN MY HEAD AROUND AND PUKE MY GUTS OUT OVER YOU! The priest, he came and rescued me from my hellspawn meanness, I know you'll never forgive me for barfing soup of greenness. Relax, your vomit contains the scent, the pheromones of Venus, I'll wear your soup forever now, I've been converted to peaness!

CC 213: Lovely absinth, wonderful absinth by lukket 9-29-03

What can I get you? Hi Red! What are you doing here, I thought it was Jes_Lawson's fastfood chain!? Yeah it is, but there are 52 restaurants worldwide. He can't be everywhere. Is that menu some sort of a sick joke? There isn't a single thing without absinth. It was like that when I got here. But you could always try the cheeseburger. It has less absinth in it. Naw, I have to split before those wikings start singing.

CC 213: ASOUE by lukket 9-29-03

On a day like all the rest, Dubya was a bit depressed, when he noticed this looking in the mirror lit by Venus: I've been converted to penis! You look quite stuffed. Are you alright? Yeah, I just ate Dick Cheney And what happened then? Then you became the President, sir!

My CC (164) involved "weird college courses."
I worked in a musical reference as well.
And I couldn't decide on three rules, so...

CC 213: The Whole Nine by umfumdisi 9-29-03

"Diner" Redux... I am Chessmaster 5000. Welcome to McMyers Food Emporium. May I take your order, Prime Minister Pete Nice? Able was I ere I saw Elba. I'll take some toast in the flavor of Melba. Would you like absinthe with that? Why...yes, I haven't had absinthe since my days at university studying Quantam Palindromic Equations! A Few Draughts Later... "Warning: Use of absinthe may cause hallucinations involving monkeys and re-enacting 'Amazon Women On The Moon.' Sorry, jes_" That sounds like a series of unlikely explanations!

CC 213: I've been converted to penis! by attitudechicka 9-29-03

Well, hello Jes. Welcome to Kajun's Klassic Kuisine! What'll you have? You know what I want... I'm sorry, Jes, I can't serve you absinth here. We're in America. No, no, no. You KNOW what I want. Oh. That will be five Euro and I'll meet you under table nine.

CC 213: Gleaming the Cuckoo's Nest by mmyers 9-29-03

It's imperative I break out of this institution, find out who killed my brother and give restitution. I'll use my one talent I have to do it: skateboarding should help, I'll ollie right through it. No way, Christian Slater...or are you Jack Nicholson? I need new glasses, I'm in such a pickle, son. Anyway, you'll never ever escape this place, so get that squinty look off of your face. Sorry Nurse Rashad, but I didn't ask for your permission, I'm using my Lance Mountain skateboard and my jams are by Vision. Well, you never could escape, you're brain is too dense; you're a psychotic skateboarder and that wouldn't make sense. It probably won't make sense by the end of the situation, but it will all be explained by skate tricks and a series of unlikely explanations. Talk hard, Harry!

Half the fun of running a Comic Competiton is being able to enter your own strips without fear of rebuke form the judge ;)[br]

CC 213: Capricorn One versus Dave by jes_lawson 9-29-03

Good news "Mister President", we've come up with a series of unlikely explanations for the Lunar Simian 7 Incident you dropped us in. I'll bet it's not as good as my solution... Lights...Camera...Action! A man, a plan, a butt tub, anal Panama! Bunnerabb Pizza - because that's NOT oregano! More hash, less cash, in under 30 minutes, boyo! I think we're going to have to limit the amount of "green medicine" you've been drinking, Dave... I don't want to play at being President any more.

That's all the rules except the CC one - which in my case was CC 170 (characters have a relationship with an inanimate object) I suppose if you count Stickman's obesssion with nails...

In a world not unlike our own... Welcome to McKaufman's, the finest burgers this side of the border, please pardon the puns, and may I take your order? I'll have an absinth mate, if you've got any to spare, as you can see I'm in a bit of a state, for all I have below is my underwear Two men baffle over a mystery of devastating proportions... How did you manage to lose your trousers? A series of unlikely explanations... In a quest that goes beyond the stars! That was one hell of a night out... I wonder if boorite'll be wanting his trousers back? They're quite a snug fit... No, I don't know how I got here either

CC 213: Air Bud vs. The Princess Bride by kaufman 9-29-03

Dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble ... Hungry Fezzik wants a nibble. Hey, Dread Pirate Roberts, have you seen the six-hammered man? Arrrrrr, he's been elected Prime Minister of Florin by Prince Humperdink. Hello, my name is Air Bud. You neutered my father. Prepare to die! INCONCEIVABLE! If I did that, that's what you'd be.

CC213: He shoulda gone to Starbucks by flickguy 9-30-03

Good morning, Mr. President! Welcome to Turn Your Head And Kauf, Man! Take a ballot and vote for your favorite flavour. Minty green? Ginseng deluxe? Pure menthol? What the hell is this?? Absinth Tea Voting!

This is not my empire.

CC 213: Sanity is Overrated by codehappykid 9-30-03

My minions had arisen with some negative mutations... Absinth produced a series of unlikely explanations I'm the President! I'm the President! The moon was nice, but it didn't contain potassium. I present to you the princess Buttercup! Ay, I'm-a Mario!

HALPUU!

There were many words in the rules. I did not read them all, and understood few of the ones did I read.

Here is the result:

CC 213: You Had To Be There by KungChiFu 9-30-03

A series of unlikely explanations: Nipple. Apple. Crap. How do you spell 'absinth'?

Your mickey mouse kung fu is no match for my superior fighting style.

Panel 2 of codehappykid's above cartoon is genius. I actually spit tea out on my keyboard whilst reading it due to a spastic laughing fit. I can't explain why. Just the idea of GWB pounding a nail into his head as he announces he's the president just cracked me up...

CC 213: Deep in the Fun Zone by kaufman 9-30-03

My god! That Pac-Man's huge! It must be 20 miles in diameter. Don't blame me. It was like that when I got here! Let's go inside. HBO's showing Braveheart vs. UHF. We're almost ready to charge the English, but the troops don't have enough weapons. They can use spatulas. A new Spatula City just opened up in Edinburgh, and they're having a big sale. Welcome to Spatula City, how can I help you? I need 750 Ninja Throwing Spatulas, 1200 Bayonet Spatulas, 300 Super-Slapper Spatulas, oh, and a Haggis-Flipper Spatula for Mum.
