Let me start by giving you an example of what I'm looking for:

29996

The rules of this contest are simple. Choose a point of view that is at best unpopular, at worst ludicrous, and use the stripcreator medium to persuade readers to that position. There is no requirement that you believe in the position you are presenting. Matter of fact, we probably hope you don't.

Judging will be roughly on the basis of (A * B) + C, where A represents how unpopular, indefensible and ridiculous the position taken in your strip is, B represents how persuasive the presented arguments are, and C is a function of the creative and appropriate use of the characters and props to present your "argument".

Multiple entries are welcome, but too many lame entries may dull the judge's opinion of your clever one.

Entries will close precisely 72 hours after this message's timestamp.

This will be fun! Now... which indefensable point of view should I take...?

Spankling... I don't see what's socially unacceptable about that comic.

By the way, mine sucks all ass, I'm going to make a new one. Just because it's a fun contest doens't guarantee I'll be funny. :/

I did these last night, coincidentally enough they fit the flavor (if not the rules) of the contest.

And this....

Hey Brad, why is it that if I try to post two different comics in a single message, it only posts the first one twice?

I was going to write it as if men were restraining women - then it would have been antisocial. But I rather enjoyed the other way more.

I know bosses being jerks is not antisocial, but I'll bet cornholing young girls in public qualifies.

I did it! I made one without a sexual theme! But I gotta stop typing with my face.

Man, three panels is just not enough space for everything I have to say on this subject. I wonder if I could get a multi-part entry out of it.

30053

It's kaufman's fault that I made a comic this tasteless...

30057

30065

It doesn't matter how bad this is anyway cause no ones got a chance after that comic wirthling put up.

Good one, you donkey smoking hippy.

Okay, actually going to try a second entry, although it'll be DAMN tough to beat wirthling's comic.

I kinda lost sight of the B part of the (A * B) + C formula. I'm holding out hope that I scored high enough on the A part to compensate.

okay i dont care what you all say that has to win!

This one really needed a couple more panels to do the idea justice. Then again, I could make fifty strips on the topic without running out of material. God knows why I set it in the US - Aussie politicians are just as bad.

On another topic, I can see Captain RightWing becoming a new recurring character, popping up occasionally to shout "Communist!" or "Feminazi!" at appropriate moments.

I doubt any of you are familiar with Glasgow, but here, someone peddling human ashes on street corners isn't such a long shot...

30107

Damn, someone got my Crabby idea already.

And it's interesting that I did a comic like this just a few days ago:

28441

30109

This is comic #3110, my first ever to have something that resembles a meaningful number.

30116

Narf.

So! You can enter more than once, eh? Well, it just so happens I'm at a loose end...

30128

I trust this is suitably convincing.

Rules? Fuck the rules. Here is my losing entry:

30131

HAHA! Fuckin' women. Except, of course, the two little darlin's who post here. They're all right.

It's called Planet of the Girls. As a point of information, with respect to the content of this strip, I'm a man.

Wow, Drexle really likes to use me in his comics.

But just so everyone knows those are all my catch phrases except:
THE WAY WITH THE RAG IS A LAY IN THE BAG.

That one wasn't mine.

I owe a large ammount of my comic collection to your presence here, crabby. And while I'm fully aware that you're no longer the way that you're depicted in that comic, it certainly is fun to think back on the old days.

crabby, you ever seen BASEketball?

the character squeek is essential not only to the film but to life itself

you must return to fulfilling the "little bitch" role before you become too bearable and existance falls into nothing etc etc

All seriousness aside, I dare say this contest brought out the best/worst in a lot of you. I was surprised how many of you selected heads of state as your "spokespeople", but perhaps I shouldn't have been. Among the many entries that struck me were (in chronological order):

boorite's NAMBLA appeal was just plain hilarious. Serious refrigerator door material. It didn't, however, really address the issue of persuading the audience. So that left the door open to others.

evil_d's invasion plans. I might have shoehorned in a comment about a sneak nighttime attack, but really good job!

NastyPope and wirthling for their one-two punch of pure tastelessness (now you know why Jewish law requires burial).

Drexle's throwing himself on the grenade of the obvious, and posting the low degree of difficulty crab-a-thon. I'm not bitter at all because I had someone else in the betting pool on who would do that...

Nonetheless, there was another comic that both adhered to the rules, and tickled me for its utter preposterousness. And thus, by the arbitrary and capricious powers vested in me, I present your CC 51 champion:

30027

I'll be checking my mailbox for my little piece of Nome!

Good gravy. This almost makes up for my hoovering all over the Comic Cups to date. This contest had great rules and resulted in a ton of hilarious comics. I will do my best to come up with rules that meet this standard later today. Failing that I will serve up my usual bowl of tripe.
