Planning on moving to N0 tomorrow and kicking this game off Monday. This is the last chance for anyone to submit a flavor comic if they want to.

[Ichimaru Gin]

If we don't submit a comic, will we be assigned a random one or will you handpick one?

Mostly random. I will pick (by clicking "random" on xkcd a bunch of times) additional comics and assign those randomly.

Day 1 Start

The International Convention of xkcd Fans (ICXF) was well under way. There were several small displays of various comics with artists and admirers from all over the world, but primarily everyone was there for the Ultimate xkcd Comic Strip of the Century Award. Some argued that titling the award "comic of the century" was a gross exaggeration, but the organizers really didn't care. They made they event and the award, they got to name it.

The voting began with a vote for the format of how to do the voting. Some wanted single elimination. Some wanted double. Some wanted round robin. Eventually, they just made a bracket and voted and it ended up being single elimination. So they gathered up the best 256 comics and began voting.

It was a tense time as round after round passed. There was chaos everywhere. Soon, however, they were down to the final 16. Voting was about to begin for the final 16 when suddenly 5 comics disappeared leaving just 11. The Grand Organizer decided to launch an inquiry. Someone, or something, was trying to rig the Award instead of allowing a fair voting process. The result of the inquiry finally came back. A sign was posted:

"It has been determined that there are those people who submitted comics have been tampering with the vote. We know that those individuals are still out there among the 11 remaining comics. We have determined that the competition can continue if the remaining 11 contestants can find those rogues rigging the contest. Otherwise, we have no choice but to call the whole thing off. In the meantime, please enjoy this honorable mention xkcd comic"

If Robz is looking overtownie, he's surely scum. If overscummy, he's surely town.

Thanks god Eevee is town, they've made a perfect scum pair with Robz.

[LaLight]

[Ichimaru Gin]

[LaLight]

[Eevee]

Robz888: The Man, The Myth, The Legend, and an unofficial guide to reading him:

If he lives past day 2, he is scum.

To know Calamitas and Robz read M88. To know Space Anemone, read Newbie 8. To know me, well i was scum once in my second ever game, M86, but i'm better as town.

[LaLight]

Schadd's good performance is M87.

[Ichimaru Gin]

Can anyone ever really know Robz is the question...

He was one of my mentors, three years ago.

I have him down as one of the unreadable people.
