wow. I won. wow...........wow.

anyway, let's get right down to business......what would you do if SC shut down for good?....what would happen if SC shut down for good? what would happen to the other users if SC shut down for good? or what do you do in your spare time when SC goes down temporarilly? That is what this CC is all about....anything about SC shutting down or crashing for periods of time....you can do it about stripcreator crashing down or irc crashing down, anything around that....you can do series, but don't make them too long because I'm too lazy....and photoshopped entries are welcome.

Judging is this thursday......now get stripping!....then make some comics......

Someone named "Ewwwww" posted thirteen new topics to Read My Damn Comics today. I can't keep up with all these users, I think I'll have to shut stripcreator down. Then I can stick to In4mador and bradsucks.net where there are no other users.

CC 197: When the domain names become available again by kaufman 7-14-03

What are you doing? Just typing in random URLs and seeing what they bring up. That's a webcam of a guy sleeping. Yeah, napster.com. These sites are pretty bogus, though they did have some nice eggs benedict recipes at brunching.com. And ... HOLY SHIT! I guess it's true you can find anything on the internet. Even God taking his clothes off.

That's it! SC is over. I'm finished with it, and I'm never going back. Ah, and with all this free time, I could do so much... Aww crap, who am I kidding?

CC 197: How SC Provides Chi With Job Security by Chi_The_Cynic 7-14-03

ERROR 404 Well, I guess with SC gone, I'll just have to allow my cynicism to show itself in the real world... ...and to sum up, you have absolutely no idea how to use a computer, let alone run a company, you mindless balding overweight chump! Moments later... Got any spare change *hic* guv'nor? Brad! Why hast thou forsaken me?

Stripcreator still down by boorite 7-14-03

Newbies and regs, we'll all end up like you. Were you a reg? Where are your one-liners? Your inside jokes? No, you are the comic strip now, death's everlasting punchline. Gags get tired from running, and message boards crash and burn... ...but yours is a complexion inked in colors that Time cannot fade. Somebody get this guy a ball gag.

first off, i'd like to point out that these are totally unrelated comics, and thus do not violate the short-series rule (:

Contest 197b: Ah well. by il_schmucko 7-14-03

PETA attributes the recent decline in virtual donkey rape to the permanent shutdown of StripCreator.com hmm... However, spokespeople are concerned that ACTUAL donkey rape is up 130%.

Contest 197c: The 2004 Nobels by il_schmucko 7-14-03

I'm proud to announce this year's Peace prize recipient, Boorite, who managed to find a way for all the earth's people to coexist without warring. Mr. Boorite? Golly, I wish DexX had changed my character before Brad shut SC down.

Contest 197e: Cowboy Adjudication by il_schmucko 7-14-03

One day at the postapocalyptic ranch... Well, you all made me laugh, but Kaufman's usual brilliance has given him the edge. Congratulations, Doc--the next contest is all yours. What the fuck are you talking about?

CC 197: Not really true. Really. by NeoVid 7-15-03

Note to self: Don't fill in time while SC is down by going to macrophile.com on public net access.

By the way, does the perspective on the Prison2 background look really Escherfied to anyone else? I'm not sure which side is supposed to be inside...
