If you see Mary tell her she owe me a twenty bucks.

Judging in two or three hours! Hurry if you have any last minute entries!

Thank you all for entering. Everyone did a great job. Having to pick one winner out of all of these entries is nothing less than a mind-numbing ordeal...a horrendous nightmare of grueling, soul-crushing horror.

Silver Award of Excellence

Goes to: Gabu

Score!

As soon as I saw Zegota's...I knew I'd only be winning the cool, but very useless awards.

Does anybody know where Zegota is? He hasn't made a comic since 7/05, and the FTC is beginning to atrophy. What is the standard procedure if a contest winner appears to be unavailable to continue?

I guess I could wait another day or two and then perhaps call upon the second place winner to carry on. How's that?

If Zegota doesn't pop up soon, I'll gladly take the next contest (since I won the creativity award). PM me and let me know if you need me to take over.

Thanks for finding the appropriate rule, Gabu. I'd say we should wait maybe till Monday morning at 8:00 EST, and then if Zegota is still MIA by then, AtheistDiary should do the honors of hosting the next FTC. How's that?

According to the link at the very top ("HOSTS! Read this first."):

Q. Who hosts the next comic:
A. Host is winner of these awards in priority from first to last, if any cannot fulfill their duties:
1) Zinger award
2) Creativity award
3) Silver In Excellence
4) Host picks a winner

*sniff* You're trying to steal my glory, you rat bastard!

*runs off crying like a little bitch*

Hmm... doesn't that seem a bit odd? Shouldn't the Silver in Excellence award get second? I have nothing against Athiest Diary hosting an FTC, but I think it makes more sense to let the Silver winner go since it would seem that a Zinger is basically a gold.

---

BUT WAIT!!! Zegota is back! He posted in my BTC that I'm hosting right now... perhaps you should send him so many PM's that his mailbox is flooded. I can help.

I've seen him twice this weekend, and pm'd him once. Perhaps a flood of them would help. He still has until 8:00 am EST tomorrow to respond.

Time's up. New winner. Let's get the competition back on track!

It's now Thursday. Shouldn't AtheistDiary be given the green light to start FTC 40 or something?

GREEN LIGHT!!!!!

So go and message him so we can get a new one already!

Crap, sorry, guys. Didn't notice that I won. I'll have a new FTC up shortly.

Wow, Zegota really fucked himself over.

He posted in a couple of other forums today. I guess he hasn't been reading his PM's.

Or this forum.

Ok, FTC 40 is rolling.

Oops.
Must of lost track of this one.

Never got any PM's though

WOOHOOO I WON!

well at least I made teh funny

My sincerest apologies to the wonderfull stripcreator community who could not begin a new and exciting contest as soon as it should have because I put my head up my bum.

Shite, I did get the PM's.
Apparently I was never logged in. Damn Firefox and it's Account Manager function!

The Dummy's Curse is truly upon me.
