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:


  • 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.

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.

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

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

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...

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

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...

The CC when I joined was the one for the year 2025. Since he's not technically on the moon, my other two compliancies are the fast food chain and the movie titles.

I was 93% sure that I had misspelled hagus/haggis, but I'm sort of the Picasso of strip making.

These Potato Durden - Moon Monkey comics are absolute genius, you just have to be on a strict meditative and fasting schedule to appreciate them.

Thanks for posting them a few days before Yom Kippur, and a few weeks before Ramadan. At least some of us will be able to derive full pleasure from them

You have another 24 hours to enter, by request.

Meanwhile, while you are waiting, some explanations of the so-called rules.

1. CC rules when you joined - shamelessly stolen from Kajun's Comic Cup X Rules; it deserved a bigger audience. Please Vote in the semi-finals and finals of Comic Cup X.

2. Stripcreator reg opens a fast food shop - boorite did some really hella funny strips on fast food in Comic Showcase.

3. Palindromes/rhyme - I like palindromes/ another Lolita League rule.

4. Stickman is President/PM - Came up with this as a rule for the Lolita League which I'm running in Kajun's abscence. My favourite rule.

5. Absinth - Suggested when I was on #stripcreator by either Chooby, Chi_The_Cynic or choadwarrior I think...

6. kaddar chimp on the moon - again, overheard on #stripcreator, conversation between brad and kaddar that mentioned "Astrochimp!" Way to pre-empt reality!

7. The 3 phrases to use:
- "It was like that when I got here!" - One of Homer Simpson's 3 little phrases to get through life
- "A Series of Unlikely Explanations" - The name of a spaceship from an Iain M. Banks novel
- "I've been converted to penis!" - Long story, female friend of mine said it once, sounded suitably stripcreator smutty to include as a rule.

8. Film titles colliding - Original (I think)

9. video game character - original again (I think)

Damn...if I had known you were going to extend the contest, I would have made this one compliant. I'm placing it here as a diversion only:
