Gimp has always meant something completely different to me. Plastic string that you can weave to make keychains and stuff. That's the gimp I'm familiar with.

Just a reminder that it's August 29th and the "Re-Script" Contest will be wrapping up here shortly. Apologies for an imprecise date, as things are a bit up in the air, but that leaves everyone a little bit of time to polish things up and get their entries in. C'mon, everyone, we can't have a contest with only two entries! I know everyone here has a good sense of humor - show it off with a re-script!

I'm a mod now, it is canonical to hate me. :P

Well, I hope my comic made some people chuckle... ;)

The target audiance is actually rather small... :-?

Basically, those people who a) read pretty much all the posts in Ma3 and b) also come to GD and see it. There can't be a lot of overlap... I used quite a few insiders from the heated Ma3 discussions of the last weeks.

Okay, DA, that was a great re-script. :-bd =)) I always thought of just twisting around what "could" be said by the characters, rather than just having them talk with an awareness of their genre and the way so many people are razzing on things. Genius! :D

No one can complain they weren't given enough time. So I say yeah.

And noob Ecchi-Spud (not even 100 posts yet!) waltzes in and snatches the prize away from the two who've owned the contests the last six months! Even their vaunted mod-powers couldn't save them! :ymdevil:

Congratumakshuns to Ecchi-Spud! :ymparty:

I admit... Normally I'm happy with my one vote, but this time, I had hoped for more. :( I guess most people who voted here do not frequent the Ma3 boards and know what is going on there sometimes... Not to mention it would have been a good idea to announce this contest on the comic boards too, I'm sure some more people would have joined (like Gredinus :P ). /:)

That and the double post says she didn't have her coffee yet, Mr. Sithlord.
