Welcome to The Stick Awards II: Second Edition! :smallsmile:
The Stick Awards are handed out to the best strips of all time as chosen by our fellow Playgrounders.
Over the next few days, we're taking a bit of a break and finishing up The Best of the Hundred Tournament for Comics #501 - #600 as we take the time to decide which of the strips really are the best of best.
For full details about the Stick Awards, and any questions about them, please check out the main thread here (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=283609).
To read more about the original Stick Awards, created by Nazzo, the 102nd, please read his thread here. (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34791)
To vote in this thread, simply state which comic of the five listed is your favorite. Bolding the number of the comic (Like this) helps it stand out.
Voting, which only lasts five days during the Best of the Hundred Tournament will close on October 25th, 4pm EST. Any votes made after that will NOT count toward the totals.
The winner of this Best of the Hundred final will go on to the Best of the Thousand tournament if and when we reach Comic Number 1000.
In the second semi-final, :belkar: 568 - A Sign That You Have a Problem (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0568.html) moved on to the finals as it was foretold by those who can foresee the future. Not to be outdone, the stirring oratory of http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/redxiv/therkla.gif 593 - Another Choice (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0593.html) proved to be its equal in moving the judges' hearts. Thus both were deemed worthy to represent their comrades as winners of that semi-final.
Meanwhile, both http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/redxiv/celiadate.gif 538 - Fiend or Foe? (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0538.html) and http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v298/redxiv/kazumiwedding.gif 587 - What to Expect When You're Expecting Assassins (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0587.html) threatened enough judges with death and discomfort that they too were allowed their place in the Best of the Hundred's Finals as the Wild Card representatives. Well, I mean, would you tell those strips they didn't have enough backers to move on? Good way to wind up with x's on one's eyes, I'd say! :smalleek:
One hundred more strips have been reviewed and proved worthy. But not quite worthy enough to send the victor on to the Best of the Thousand. For that we need one last set of judges to assemble for.....
