About 2 years ago, a great forumite named Porthos created an OOTS voting contest (based on a much shorter lived, but equally fantastic, previous version) which had forum goers vote on the best OOTS strips of all time. It was an impressive contest which went on for over 2 years (and only ended, or went on hiatus, due to running out of strips) and will undoubtedly be remembered in this forum as one of the most well-run ongoing threads on here.
This is not that contest. This is a shameless mockery of that contest.
Welcome to The Brick Awards, the Best of the Worst Tournament! :smallsmile:
The Stick Awards were handed out to the best strips of all time as chosen by our fellow Playgrounders. However, when voting for the Stick awards, some strips felt left out, abused, unloved. Whether they simply were a weak strip, or a decent strip surrounded by amazing strips, for whatever reason some strips just didn't get any votes. :smallfrown:
So this contest is designed to give those strips the morale boost they need and deserve! I am collecting all the strips which received zero votes in the Stick awards and presenting them in groups of ten (Or, at least close to ten, since I don't want to cut off in the middle of a group of strips). We will then vote as to which is our favorite of the worst strips so we can finally decide which the best worst strip is!
(And let's be honest, even the worst OOTS strips are still pretty good and deserve our appreciation!)
To vote in this thread, simply state which comic of the ten nine listed is your favorite. Bolding the number of the comic (Like this) helps it stand out.
Voting will last until Thursday March 24 at 10AM (MT). Any votes made after that will NOT count toward the totals.
