Thanks to our friends at The Dialectizer, we can now bring the webcomic wrapup to you in a manner that is totally not offensive to those with a Cockney dialect. Without further ado,Wotcher. I'll get out me spoons. We 'ave some webcomics 'ere ter show yer if yer ain't too tired from the Game Developers Conference like we are. Jet lag sucks.
Wiv nuffink said and evryfink ter go, right, check out us picks for the bloomin' Mae West gamin' webcomic. Be sure ter vote for yor favorite! Right!

Wow, I don't know if Moderntales was intentionally being androgynous but the protagonist shifts sexs with the ease of a tranny whore.

I'm voting for Dueling Analogs, the rest were so-so. If anyone's interested, our 2-parter is done: http://www.2pstart.com/

PBF. It's just so screwed up. And the expressions are priceless.
NintendoFanbot @ Mar 10th 2007 11:52PM
I felt kinda indifferent after reading all of them, but PA seems to be getting whatfor.
Maybe it wasn't a good week.

Worst. Cockney. Ever.
Okay, second worst; Dick Van Dyke still reigns supreme on that count.

I'm surprised there was no Weird this week. They had a Crackdown one and a World of Warcraft one.

And Comedity had a (somewhat) game-related comic, I'm predicting a more heavily gaming-based arc coming around sometime soon.

Before anyone bashes the Tip of the Sword one, I'd like to say that, as the creator of Tip of the Sword, I did not particularly feel that that particular one was funny, and from the votes nobody else does, it was made to express how happy I am that I finally got my raptor in WoW. And the joke was sorta forced in there. I did not submit this one myself, someone else did, and Im happy that I'm in anyway. Thanks Joystiq!
For my fave comic that I made last week, well, I liked this one.

I'll be surprised if PA doesn't win this week. Tho I did enjoy the DA strip also.
Asgeras @ Mar 11th 2007 1:07AM
That Penny Arcade one was just too hilarious...especially if you've followed them for a while. :P
As for your comic, Auker, I thought it was actually very good, and makes a great point. Screw fanboys...I'm a gamer.
Burnt Meatloaf @ Mar 11th 2007 1:09AM
That Joy of Tech deserves more than just 4% of the vote.
Auker @ Mar 11th 2007 3:06AM
@ Asgeras
I assume the comic that you're referring to is not the one that's up for voting, but the latest one that I made, which deals with gamers and fanboys.
Asgeras @ Mar 11th 2007 3:44AM
Oh...hehe...yeah. Sorry...I assumed it was the current one...which is what got you your vote :P
Auker @ Mar 11th 2007 4:39AM
Ouch. So I guess youre a fan then if youve bothered to check out the latest one. thats cool, if not, thats cool too.
mushiking @ Mar 11th 2007 5:06AM
i just love watching Penny Arcade eat crow. it's the best thing ever.
Sam @ Mar 11th 2007 5:25AM

How the hell is PA winning? A lot of people have an odd sense of "funny." I mean you have "ooo, irony" as a weak ass puchline Vs Mario drowning in a toilet...
It's all you Nintendo fanboys isn't it?
Almadi @ Mar 11th 2007 7:06AM
Two weeks in a row off the charts, I guess I have to keep Kaizen-ing on.
Although not in the wrap up, you might enjoy WFGN #6 and #7 at:

@18 If anything, it would be a pro-sony comic due to their miracalous rise from the dead (courtesy of "third-life" and a pretty nifty platformer-maker). If you want pro-nintendo go for Extralife's.
Btw anyone got a mirror for DA? It seems to be down...
JohnDoe @ Mar 11th 2007 10:02AM
How is PBF not going to win, by far the best. PA was not funny at all, it was just a bit of story telling, probably a build up to future strips, because as such it had no comedy value.
Muku @ Mar 11th 2007 1:43PM
PBF is just disturbing. I saw it last week or so and just was like "ugh".
Auker, actually, being a WoW player, I found it to be the best this week. I understand the joy of getting a mount on a character. I just recently got my Draenei Paladin he could buy his warhorse. (And I bought him an Elekk for extra measure, since Draenei look like adults riding a kids toy on the warhorse.) I voted Tip of the Sword for this week. :)
Penny Arcade was just... I dunno. The punchline as someone else said this week was just, very weak.

Hi This is James from RPG-TV.com
Unfortunately you cannot acces our site at the moment because we are down for maintenance and of course this is also the reason we are not in the wrap up this week. Thanks for your votes in the past, we look forward to being in the wrap up next week.
Thanks

...Would someone please explain to me how the Martha Stewart comic is supposed to be entertaining on any level? Let alone funny? I just can't wrap my head around it. Even Dueling Analog's predictable punchline and pop-culture referencing trumps that.
Other than that, 'twas a good selection this week. The PA strip was pretty decent, but I think I favour the Extra Life and the Purple Ninja vs. Hanta Virus comics moreso.
And now, for something retarded(though still slightly video game-related):

Almadi,
I really liked number 7. Better than some of the others this week.
