Contrary to what some may think, I have not intentionally tried to nullify future "FTC" competitions by starting an "MCC" competition.  Therefore, I have decided to officially continue the time honored tradition by starting another "FTC" contest.

The topic for this contest (Unintended Consequences") was inspired by the confusion caused by the aforementioned kerfuffle.

There are no rules except that it must be a NEW comic about, what else, unintended consequences.  You know the old saying ... "The best laid plans of mice and men..."etc. etc. etc. 

So make your best comic about something that went awry!  I'll judge in 2 weeks.  Sooner if nobody bothers to enter...which makes the judging simply difficult but I'll just have to Man UP!

Since you didn't provide a partially finished comic to work from, I went ahead and did this one, as if I was finishing a 'comic idea' of yours. Yes, as a matter of fact, that's exactly what I did.

What do ya mean, worm?  Most people say that ALL my comics are partially finished!

I was simply referring to the 'template' created by the competition's host which has usually been the starting point that every entrant uses to finish in their own way.

Now I would say that I do not claim to know the history of the FTC competition. It may be that no template has been provided on more occasions than when one has been provided.

Ok Ok.....obviously my stupidity and ineptitude has gone to new lengths, therefore you will find a template to follow below.  Use as many panels as you need just do not alter the 1st panel.  If this is still not correctly formatted then I give up.  The contest will be nullified and I will go back into hibernation!

Two weeks will be on the 26th and then...here comes the JUDGE!  I do hope I'll see more entries by then but, hey,  I ought to know better.

Ha ha. I didn't read the rules the whole way through either. Oops.

And the winner is............the only guy with an entry that followed ALL the criteria!  The baton is passed to "bigworm"!  Kudos to the few, the proud, the entrants (both of em). 

As for me, I'm getting out of this contest racket.  I just can't seem to incite mass participation.  Good luck in the future to those who do!

What?? I won??? Talk about unintended consequences!

FTC 161 coming right up.
