The Comic Tournament is BACK!
We have had one Official Comic Tournament here, and I have had a few requests at a chance of another!
The tournament consists of a number of rounds, depending on how many people enter. To enter the competition, you have to create an original character, either drawn on paper and scanned or drawn on photoshop or any other program. These characters will be used in 'battles' in the opcoming rounds.
Let's say 12 people enter the competition, 6 battles with 2 people each would occur in round 1. In every battle, each user will put forward their created characters and battle would commence.
A battle would commence like this:
Fight starts
Player 1 attacks within 2 days time
Player 2 attacks within 2 days time
Player 1 attacks within 2 days time
Player 2 attacks within 2 days time
Fight ends
Attacking means the user creates a comic, which can be as long as they want within the 2 days. It does not necessarily mean an actual physical attack from one character to another, but it creates a short comic featuring the 2 user's characters.
This battle would be done in a single thread, where the 2 users post the comics. A separate thread, which includes a poll would be created where other users from the forum can vote on which comics they liked the best. The winner from this poll goes through to the next round.
If a contestant doesn't respond to a battle, then they are disqualified and their opponent goes through.
Rounds like this will continue until there are only 2/3 users left in the competition. Who goes up against who will be decided by names which will be pulled out of a hat.
In the Final, there will be three attacking phases instead of 2, because well, it's the Final, and these are obviously the best comic makers so it should be enjoyable.
Sadly, the Administrators decided not to create a sub-forum, so it might be sloppy at first.
The comics aren't based on art alone, they're based on three things:
1. Art: Is it decent? Pleasing to the eye? Terrible?
2. Creativity: Cool situations, interesting ways of handling the fights?
3. Funny: This is a COMIC competiton. It should be funny, but not random. Don't make the Flowerpot monster from Arubalanda appear out of your character's pants.
So even if you don't fancy yourself as an artist, you can still compete. :thumbsup:
Here is the link to the Thread of the last Official Tournament.
The characters entered last year were:
For some reason the quality is really balls when I post it.
PS: If you would like to see an example of a complete Comic Battlem simply view these threads!:
Sadly there weren't many complete battles, meaning we couldn't complete the tournament last time.

Here is an example of a typical character you could enter in the competition. (I had to draw it on paint as my Photoshop is on my other computer).
Presenting the Undead Warrior, Sir Slaughter!
That's right, the feared Sir Slaughter is not only a level 70 Undead Warrior on his World of Warcraft account, but he has the mean attitude to match!
Watch out for his
cosplay, kids!:lol:
