Tournament of Champions: Round Two-Day One

Thanks to everyone who voted during the first round of the Tournament of Champions. The response was better than I could have ever hoped for.

For the next four workdays, we'll be voting to decide which comics move on to the final four! Remember to leave your name with your vote so that you can be entered into the drawing for a free copy of Mission Daze.


One Seed. I really enjoyed seeing how much variation there was in the voting. Each comic strip in the tournament received a number of votes. Even the sacrificial lamb 16 seed kept it respectable--with 1/3 of the votes cast in that particular race.


Eight Seed. Preschool beat the first day of school (with 64% of the votes). I briefly toyed with the idea of expanding this idea into some sort of children's book. The problem was (outside of the irreverent nature of the thing) developing some sort of conflict to the story.

See you tomorrow.

  2. I'm going with seed 8, mostly because I work with young kids. I loved seed 1, though!

  4. I choose Eight Seed; I believe that such a thing well deserves to be expanded in some way
