Tony's birthday

Nerd Fury

on Oct. 25, 2008

Yes, I know we already gave Katie Guitar Hero IV for her birthday, but it was too good a joke to pass up; I mean, I might really do that.

Also, I have an announcement: Since Tony is having doubts about FFP's future, and I'm too lazy to think up any plot, I've decided that I'm going to pass on the torch. However, rather than simply picking someone and hoping that they get the job done, I've decided to hold a contest to see who the best candidate is. Here are the rules:

1. This contest is available to all. Submit your entries to either myself or Tony(Nerd Fury), and together we will choose the winner.

2. Your comic must be at least 3 panels in length, and must fit the theme that will be explained below.

3. Your comic must have an "E" rating. That is to say, there shall be no swearing, no drug/alcohol references, and any violence is to be either off panel or "mess-free"(This does not rule out lasers).

4. Your comic is to be a sprite comic. If you have trouble obtaining/creating the sprites you need, simply talk with one of us, and we'll see what we can do.

5. You must have regular access to a computer that has adequate image altering software. No, it does not count if your friend lets you use his/her computer.

6. The theme shall be the following: Mr. J finds an enchanted/legendary creature, and attempts to communicate with it. Its response is an insult. After a brief argument, the strip ends either with Mr. J in the hospital, or with him riding said creature into the sunset. In either case, one of his minions makes a comment about the whole thing.

7. The winner will be decided based on who a) fulfills the scenario, and b) keeps the strip amusing throughout. Bear in mind that there is such a thing as too random, even in FFP.

Good luck to all who enter.
