Readers pick best webcomic, with or without Yahtzee

That odd, I happen to agree with him on those points :P

@ deatharea:

The point is that those two characteristics which he found faulty are hallmarks of the series (for Brawl it's more awesome multiplayer than shitty singleplayer).
It's like he's faulting MGS4 for being in the Metal Gear Solid series. It's like faulting SSBB for having Nintendo characters (it has since the original).

Just because they are part of the series and known to be a regular part of each series does not made them faults. He was merely not being subjective by saying it matters for every game instead of giving some games a break because their predecessors did the same, or it's intentional.

That is actually being a good objective reviewer.

Yeah, but the way he sometimes makes up false flaws for a game isn't particularly professional, though it is often hilarious

Just because a game has had a shitty aspect through its entire series does not make it any less shitty.

Then it's an... artcomic?

More successful than him? If webcomics were more successful than Yahtzee, then he wouldn't have walked away with 65% of the vote(Which, I might add since you couldn't comprehend the results before, is the majority)?

Right, because an Internet voting system is a completely scientific and impartial measure of real-world success and/or quality.

PennyArcade is infinitely more successful than ZeroReasonToExist. This is probably because they actually produce something wortwhile, rather than limp rants about how everyone but them is stupid.

Right, because Ass Masterson's opinion is a completely scientific and impartial measure of real-world success/quality.

Fixed.

Success is very subjective IMO.

I dunno, Ass, the few posts I've seen of yours portray you as a bit of an elitist ass... meaning Yahtzee's reviews should be right up your alley.

MONKEYS!

"forces"

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

The problem is, that road leads to censorship-ish type things. Not quite censorship because it's not objectionable, just not entertaining. More importantly, it leads to one blogger who doesn't find a comic funny takes it out of the wrap-up, depriving many people who would have found it funny of the (humor?)

What should happen is people should only vote for what's legitimately funny and get rid of (over time) the comics that are deemed not funny by the majority.

I'm pretty sure "forces" was used appropriately.

I also think I'm partially upset that Joystiq took away the option of choosing "none of the above" or whatever they call it. If you want to go the censorship road, then you're taking away my ability to say "these all suck" and "forcing" me to pick one of a bunch of (most of the time) crappy comics.

Oh my god. Don't be an idiot. If you want to say they all suck, say it in the comments. Why are you acting like the only way you can speak your mind is through a poll? Why are you acting like anyone is forcing you to take part at all? Stop whining.

Wow. I'm an idiot for wanting the "none of the above" option back for web comics? I'm fine with that. How many other idiots are there on this site then? No, wait... I'm sure no one else visiting this site would want that option either.

Although I do seem to remember that when they had it it was quite a popular choice.

You're an idiot for acting like someone is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to take part in something you say you don't find entertaining. Maybe they didn't want the Webcomic Wrapup to be a place for people to bitch and moan.

Not to be a spelling nazi, but web comics shouldn't be called web comes at all.

Don't worry, you're not a spelling Nazi, just a douche. It's called a typo. By the way, Nazi is a noun and thus should be capitalized, Mr. Perfect.

That would be correct if he was using nazi to define himself as "a member of a German fascist party controlling Germany from 1933 to 1945 under Adolf Hitler," but he was using it as "one who is likened to a German Nazi: a harshly domineering, dictatorial, or intolerant person." Which, according to Merriam-Webster, is often not capitalized...

If you want to get technical...

Not to split hairs, but take a look at often capitalize, which denotes that it is correct to capitalize. Anyhow, I stand by my comment, I made a typo which he tried to turn around.

Web "comes" are still lacking in humor, or wit.
