I have been feeling a bit nostalgic recently, so I decided to have the rules of this contest mimic the way Strip Creator was when it started. The rules give a rough approximation of the limitation we had to endure back then. Anyway, without futher ado:

Happiness is the CC40 Rules by BigEvilDan 6-27-01

You may use any three reasons character *except* asiangirl1-2 and asiangirl2-2. You have no idea how happy I was when I could turn around. You may use any dieselsweeties *except* mauras 2 through 5. You have no idea how happy I was when I could close my eyes and ignore the dog on the ball. You may use any lifeinhell character *except* bongo1-2 or bongo2-2. You have no idea how happy I was when I could turn around and look at the asian girls. You may use any jerkcity character. You have no idea how happy I was when we got the WIGU hooker in here. You may use any of the first four backgrounds, or none at all. I was never happy here. Have you seen the crap I say? You may only use the characters and backgrounds listed. Please be funny, or I will cornhole you. I'm happy when I cornhole.

The contest ends sometime Saturday afternoon (Eastern Standard Time), depending on when I feel like ending it.

Deep Space 9... er... Make that 4 Inches by Spankling 6-27-01

Aliens have abducted Maura and Hank. Hank is taken away by the female alien leaving Maura and the male alien behind. Now begins the probe! Really? Cool! And if you are not satisfied with my... er... probe... you my slap me on top of my head to make it bigger. Damn nice arrangement! You really are a superior species! Later... That was fantastic! How did it go for you? I don't know. She spent the entire time slapping me on the head.

CC40: Paranoia, paranoia, everyrobot's comin' to get me... by Haights 6-27-01

Must-be-funny-must-fear-Tobor-must-be-funny-must-fear-Tobor-- Hey, Bongo! . . . what's up? GAH! Oh, it's just you, Clango. For a minute there I thought you were Tobor. He says he's gonna cornhole me if I don't come up with something funny. Heh, I wouldn't worry about that, Haights. With that ear, you could probably do some sort of holin' yourself. Aw, fuck you, Clango. *ahem* Must fear funny -- must be Tobor -- Aw damnit, you made me screw it up. Asshole.

By the way, was there any restriction on props too? Or could I have put a computer there?

---
"I'm gonna give you cancer." "...what are you, a cellphone?"

No props allowed. It wouldn't be historically accurate if I allowed those newfangled props.

One more question ... since she is mentioned in the rules, does WIGU Hooker count as "listed"?

If nothing else, this one ought to have Crabby's vote :-)

CC40: THIRSTY BEATNIK RECRUITS AN ARMY!!!!! by crabby 6-27-01

I just don't have what it takes to be a Beatnik. What was i thinking even coming to this Beatnik orientation? TO BE A BEATNIK YOU GOTTA BE REALLY THIRSTY MAN!!!!! ALSO BEATNIKS ALWAYS TYPE IN NOTHING BUT CAPS AND DON'T YOU FORGET IT LITTLE BRO!!!!! I'M SORRY TOBOR BUT YOU COULD NEVER BE A BEATNIK YOUR JUST TO SQUARE MAN!!!! Is there anywhere that I Tobor can be excepted? YOU HAVE POTENTIAL BUT YOUR MISSING SOMETHING AND I JUST CAN'T PUT MY FINGER ON IT MAN!!!!!! Try hitting me on the head!

CC 40: The CAPPIEST of Them All by Drexle 6-27-01

Hey there, you look new around here. Wha.... I DO NOT SUCK DICK! Ummmm... What? Why are you so worked up? Nobody said anything about you sucking dicks... That's Wirthling's job. HELP ME SPREAD THE JOY OF ALL CAPS! I AM CRABBY! I DO NOT SUCK DICK!!! Lemme guess... your insistance on big letters and fixation on penises means that yours would be about... thiiiiiis tiny? I WOULD MAKE FUN OF YOU, BUT I DON'T WANT TO GIVE CAPS USERS A BAD NAME! AND I DO NOT SUCK DICK!!!!!

My first thought was to comment on now nobody is that vehement in their denial unless they're in the closet, but when I saw the distance between the tips of Clango's "fingers..." I couldn't help myself.

By the way, Hello CAPPY.

I thought that asiangirl2-2 was off limits for this contest.

That ain't her - that's her evil twin asiangirl2.

"Jelly-belly gigglin, dancin and a-wigglin, honey that's the way I am!" Janice the Muppet

I hate evil twins.
Well since thats not her i guess he wins then huh???
He pulled out the evil twin sister who can top that!!!!

Desc's comic is legal. It uses the only two legal asian girls.

Upon closer inspection, however, I noticed that Spanking's comic isn't compliant, as it uses the wrong Maura in panels 2 and 3. Since it really has no impact on the comic anyway, I'll just pretend they're all Maura1.

You didn't say Maura 6 was illegal.

---
"Jelly-belly gigglin, dancin and a-wigglin, honey that's the way I am!" Janice the Muppet

Apparently I can't count. What the heck, I'll just say Maura6 is legal.

---
"Oh, look, a joke! How original! Thank you, but if I wanted my emotions stimulated pleasurably, I'd get a whore." - Donald B. Jones III

Yeah - it's not like the outcome hinges on whether that particular comic is legal.

---
"Jelly-belly gigglin, dancin and a-wigglin, honey that's the way I am!" Janice the Muppet

Heh. Last time I ran a contest, half the people involved couldn't even follow a simple rule (at least, not intentionally). This time, I look like a fool because you're following the rules too well. ;)

"Oh, look, a joke! How original! Thank you, but if I wanted my emotions stimulated pleasurably, I'd get a whore." - Donald B. Jones III

Blame it on your evil twin Dave.

---
ken.kaufman@gmail.com

I thought Dave was the good twin... or are they both evil!

---
"Jelly-belly gigglin, dancin and a-wigglin, honey that's the way I am!" Janice the Muppet

Mwhahahahaha!!!!

---
Dave - Not to be confused with Dan

I got a few minutes to make a comic. It was not (obviously) enough time to make a good comic, however.

---
I wanted my half in the middle and I wound up on the edge.

Hey i was mentioned in a bunnerabb comic!!!! Now I feel like I've truly made it!!!!

crabby recruits an army by crabby 6-28-01

Hey crabby your so sexy and level headed, what's your secret to success? HUH??? Well for one you have to refrain from any dick sucking that's very important!!!! Typing in all CAPS most of the times also helps!!! Does it help if your thirsty alot like a true BEATNIK always is??? HUH??? I don't know I drink fluids, but I'm not in a constant state of thirst!!!! I hope that helps you out THIRSTY BEATNIK. I to wish I could be like you. HUH??? Well your gonna have to get off that cross for starters!!!!

ken.kaufman@gmail.com

The abriged version makes more sense and is easier to read. It also has a good beat, and I can dance to it.

---
I am a delicate fucking flower. https://beacons.ai/jesskent

I know it wouldn't be "abridged" anymore, but I keep thinking it would look better as "I drinks fluids... specifically the ones that are involved in sucking dicks."

I must say, though, that he hasn't CAPPED in quite some time. Interesting.
