I'm gonna miss these characters almost as much as I miss the two of you.

JoeNeary: galvo: JoeNeary: Less time texting each other, more time shitting when on the toilet. Then you would have more time to make comics. you kids are so cute. Dammn, I hope you didn't think I meant that mean spirited. It was just a joke. I've really enjoyed reading all your comics. Sheldon's are beautiful and dynamic, and yours are incredible pieces of storytelling, especially the varied narration and dialogue. Well done to both of you. I've always handed in half finished comics whenever submitting to Void, so I totally feel your predicaments. Pro Tip: Never take Galvo seriously :'D

My favorite part was the farting butt. 10 in quality from me.

Galvo and Sheldon: thanks for taking this like pros <3

wow i din't see this thread blowing up so much when i first read the comics. I'll be honest I get the rule thing, so that is cool. But eh I loved all the work everyone poured into this tourney and I want to fight both sheldon and gabe sometime when the stars align and I finish a few intro comics I set aside while i draw fan art for people lol. Gabe it's been said already but let me restate it, you hit a higher level of emotion in your one page then most people accomplish in 10x the amount of page count :) I am glad i got to read it. Sheldon: loved the first two pages of visual crack and I understand people having withdrawals for more (junkies what you gonna do) lol but i'll be serious, the text conversation between you two did actually make me laugh. Literally a real life "lol" and, like i mentioned before, the fact that i got to it after gabes' was great. But page 1 and 2 epic shit man loved it! I loved everything you guys put out this tourney. Everyone did a great job, so much so that in the down time I have read a retarded amount of old stories. I have gone through more void comic pages in the last 2 months then printed comic pages in the last two years.

I'll say this here in hopes everyone can see it, and can hopefully take a leaf from it. Judging by the more-than-gracious response from the mods, I feel bad for them, because they feel the need to quote rules and explain their decision. When really, all that needs to be said is: "You guys put up shit comics, and we're taking them down." But I guess in the 5 years I've been absent, these mods have been conditioned by much, MUCH whining. But you guys can skip the candor with me and Gabe, because we understand thar rule, and we know we put up shit haha. You guys (namely kev, heather, wei, and brit) run this site real well, and it's yours, and I love being allowed to come back here, and I thank you for it xoxo

real talk tho- ya'll made a helluva run at this. proud of all ya'll. eric: thanks for pushing so hard on this papi red, heather, wei, toast: you guys are my fucking heroes. keeping this place alive so long and keeping the culture strong, i'm so lucky to have ya'll in my life <3

I talked to Gabe and neither of them expected to actually have these posted in the first place. They seem to be ok with it, and I appreciate the effort in trying to get something up at the very least. There's barely anything to vote on here though. There also hasn't been a page minimum in a long time.

This isn't SDT and Red specifically posted this before any comics went up "Y'all are crazy, so I wanted to explain the actual rules because I know some of you haven't uploaded a comic in literally 5 years: 1. Post your comic ON TIME. If you try to sneak it in after the deadline, its being removed. 2. Excuse pages are NOT ALLOWED ANYMORE. If you write a big paragraph and don't draw a comic, don't bother uploading that garbage because it's not getting posted. If you want to explain yourself, do it in the comments. Same goes for splash, pin-up, or covers ... that doesn't count as a comic, so if that's all you got then don't bother. 3. You gotta draw your opponent, and they have to die. Should be obvious, but if you upload only 1 page and it looks super nice but you didn't draw the other guy then too bad. The bare minimum for posting the comic is it has to ACTUALLY BE A COMIC, and ALL INVOLVED CHARACTERS MUST BE IN IT. 4. 50 Million years ago, there was a page limit. That doesn't exist anymore, so if you have more than 10 pages you no longer have to stack them! Page minimum is also gone! The uploader is pretty decent now, so as long as your pages are properly sized you should be ok. If you are having real difficulties, you must comment on the battle and let us know. Email Wei and I and we will help. You have to let us know, otherwise we will assume you defaulted. You guys can agree on rules or stuff amongst yourselves, but as long as the entries meet those requirements they will go up. I think he was just suggesting to keep the page count low, which I agree is a good idea! Good luck!!" Your opponent dying is pretty much the most basic obvious requirement for a death match, much like scar matches where you must show the character receiving a scar.

I'm with Adam, I still found these entertaining even though shit came up and you guys didn't get to give it more. I'm super grateful you guys, along with everyone else, came back to void for this SDT. I had an awesome time but still didn't get to face either of you unfortunately, maybe next time.

Killing your opponent in an SDT match isn't a rule, it's something that is extremely advised but it has never been something that comics were not put up to vote on for. There were battles this SDT that didn't have deaths, battles in last years SDT, including the one that I lost in with Kalah. And battles in other SDTs. As far as I know the only real requirements were that you include yours and your opponents character and that you meet the minimum page requirements met.

[quote]Aside from my wanting to murder your faces with an eggbeater of knives for calling Red a cunt (because she is awesome and you are guys are a wrinkly potato sack filled with butts) I cherish this response. Anyways, neither of these entries should have been posted because they didn't meet the basic requirement of actually killing the other dudes. But hey, somehow they are up for voting, so have at it. Hoping for a rematch while MoTD is still going on. At the end of this, both characters will be dead. So at the end of Murderfest 2014, everyone died. It sucks that the ending wasn't super epic, but overall we got some good comics along the way. THERE WERE NO SURVIVORS.

I CAME HERE JUST TO LAUGH AT YOU, INSERT CHARAZNABLEMEME.JPG nah, it's good to have y'all back, galvo and sheldon. Lord, it feels like the old lurker days with the comment section blowin' up. I'm reading everything in reverse.

JoeNeary: Less time texting each other, more time shitting when on the toilet. Then you would have more time to make comics. you kids are so cute.

i was still really entertained, Gabe your ending was actually quite satisfying, I enjoyed your writing and characterizations throughout, you brought that emotion! I applaud the amount of ground you covered with 1 page. Sheldon you told a good story here and i enjoyed the spot illos and typography, also the action bits in the beginning looked damnn epic. Thanks to you guys and all the old timers,etc.. for bringin back some heat to the void streets! I have really enjoyed reading the comics throughout the murderfest tourney!! hope to see you all make comics forever

JoeNeary: Less time texting each other, more time shitting when on the toilet. Then you would have more time to make comics. LMAO

Less time texting each other, more time shitting when on the toilet. Then you would have more time to make comics.

nothing in void is canon!! but I want to reiterate that my problem is not with gabe or with sheldon! it happened, and I get why you two did what you did. I'm not mad that you had better things to do. I understand that this wasn't you guys posting it up. I wasn't even gonna say anything here at first. I discussed this elsewhere and was told to take it here, so I did!

BUT HEY, I'M A DUMB BABY SO WHAT DO I KNOW?

galvo: REAL TALK THOUGH- EVERYONE NEEDS TO GIVE SHELDON THE WIN SO MY STORYLINE ISN'T FUCKED UP THO.I want this so bad! But if Sheldon wins, doesn't that nullify your storyline? IT'S A PARADOX. (You both seemed offended by my previous comments; it's hard to fully communicate this stuff over the internet. I want you to know that I LOVED what both of you have done so far, I've been riveted by the story and character progression you've both given us, and I hope there's some sort of continuation on one side or the other, regardless of who wins or what the staff decides to do with your wrinkly asses.) PS—that "THIS IS VOID" comment came out completely wrong hahah. All's I'm saying is that VOID doesn't care about your life. Obviously, fuck VOID; life is more important. But don't expect VOID to care. It's there to kick you while you're down. Isn't it?

REAL TALK THOUGH- EVERYONE NEEDS TO GIVE SHELDON THE WIN SO MY STORYLINE ISN'T FUCKED UP THO.

hahaha oh man...the potential for drama here has me salivating, if I wasn't so tired I would engage you all. VERY surprising reactions from some of you. justarhymes: Bobo: I get that life happens and stuff, but THIS IS VOID.. Sorry, but that made me legit laugh out loud. My reaction exactly. Fuck you, kids, I'm OLD.

bobo: i talked to red, she said no. so i respected her ruling. it comes with the territory of not being the captain around here anymore. yes the comics were shitty- we know that. thank you for noticing.

i just typed out like an elaborate respond to everyone, but then i realized i dont give a shit cause its just a comic. justin: i laughed my ass off too. these kids. nina: to be fair, i didnt bend that rule- i was surprised our pages got posted. rob: we talk shit, but at the end of the day- if red was getting harassed by 10 buff jersey shore douchers, we'd be right there to protect her. cause we love the lil cunt <3

Aside from my wanting to murder your faces with an eggbeater of knives for calling Red a cunt (because she is awesome and you are guys are a wrinkly potato sack filled with butts), I am super disappointed. I only checked out this battle so I could see how great you guys were, in getting to the top of murderfest and like, what. Really. Sheldon, your first two pages look cool, and maybe you were trying to be funny by posting your 5 stages of how to not do what you're supposed to, but like, super rude. Super slanderous. Not cool at all. Ha ha ha, you'll wait and do your comic until the last minute like always, hilarious. I bet you find that super funny right now. Galvo, I like your font, I like the way you color in this kind of grey/black/green noise, the colors go really well together. Not a huge fan of your style, but to each their own. The writing was cool, up until the bit where he uses a jizz simile for the guy descending and dissolving into acid. It sounds cool at first then it's hey. Wait. That doesn't even make that much sense and it's super inappropriate for the context, but I guess maybe that's just the way the character is--a werd pervy dude who has no issues connecting death with jacking off.

Bobo: I get that life happens and stuff, but THIS IS VOID.. Sorry, but that made me legit laugh out loud.

galvo: BUT I'M ENTITLED!!! WAAAAAAH!!! I get that life happens and stuff, but THIS IS VOID. You should be used to no mercy. It's not personal; I don't think any less of you guys for turning in unfinished work, it's just not up-to-par with what it seems like you've been gearing up to. And you even mentioned that, according to Sheldon's excuse pages. And I mean, I was still entertained by both comics, even if they were shitty. But they were still shitty, and I hope you do something to make up for that after all the work you both put into your story arcs up to this point. As far as bending rules goes, I think that might be a good discussion to have somewhere else. We're trying to tighten things up so we can be more fair and consistent and avoid people feeling targeted or left out because they didn't receive the same leniency as someone else, but maybe there are occasions where it's okay to be more lenient. If you have experience that you'd like to share, I think maybe a chat with the current Council members might be beneficial. Not that I'm in any position to set that up or make that statement officially, but it's just my two cents about the situation.

galvo: but yer right nina- technically we both lose if rules are to be followed- and galvo: ..but oh well. can't bend them rules. lmao, which one is it? I don't care necesarily that you guys couldn't do much. I get it! I really do! I'm not as bothered by that part, believe it or not. just this whole rule bending business. it wasn't okay before, but now it is?

Boo.

justin/nina: i killed myself. someone died. this was the plan all along. charley was going to live in whatever comic I would have turned in. because in the end- charley still dies from natural causes- but galvo lives on in the future- cause he is forever. but yer right nina- technically we both lose if rules are to be followed- i did one page of comic, sheldon did 2, and 6 pages of excuses = zero comic pages. bobo: yes we are the fathers. and if you ask me we brought home some pretty tasty meals for the majority of this tournament, sheldon more than anyone. and yes you can complain that we couldn't bring home another big ass steak for ya'll to gobble down, but sweety-- we just couldn't afford it this week. and void city doesn't offer welfare for SDT. had we gotten an extension, well that woulda been another story. but oh well. can't bend them rules. so this is what ya'll get. its life. back to work.

I'll go ahead and say it here too- these shouldn't have been posted. call me sour grapes all you want (since I've already been called that) but I would be saying the same thing if I wasn't involved. as far as I know, battles that do not meet the min. requirements do not get posted. neither of these showed the opponent getting killed, which I believe is the minimum requirement for a death match? so I'm failing to see why these are up. I'm not even sure how to vote, so I'm not voting, for now at least. I love you two, but you know what you did! >:I

WELP. THANKS FOR THE HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT, DUDES. I fully expect that postponed battle you guys were talking about. That's no way to treat your children. We're like little babies and you just fed us a bottle with like a drop of milk. I'm still thirsty, and it's your responsibility to feed me. Okay so maybe that sounded a little like "I deserve everything and you have to give it to me." Really, I just want to rip you both apart and leave you in pieces, but then I also want to see more from you and I can't argue against real life getting in the way. You probably don't care what I think, but if you do... please redeem yourselves. This was a slap in the face to all of VOID, especially to all of the artists who worked so hard and whom you defeated getting to this point. I know some of them would have totally rocked either of you if they had survived to see this round. And I know what it's like to be in the semifinals only to have one of the finalists default (which is pretty much what you did, just barely a step further). IT SUCKS. Please draw your real finale! That's all.

I think you both could have put more/different effort into your excuse pages. sheld: damn, it would have been so easy. instead of putting so much effort into excuse pages, you could have just done a cop out last page of galvo getting out of red 6 and then slipping and falling off to his death. BOOM. and no one would be the wiser. gabe: you could have easily done an extra panel of charlie's death. next panel, well into the future, charlie in his death bed dying of natural causes. BOOM. step up the cop out/excuse game, boys.

i totally give sheldon the win for his mini drawings of us on toilets.

lol to be honest i still enjoyed these life is what it is :P It is better that sheldon's is 2nd lol

sheldon: galvo: this is all i could muster my friends. i will return with supplemental comics for you all soon xoxo Yeah me too. Apologies all. Well I guess you two have legit reasons, so maybe maybe sometime in the future this comic will be concluded properly, with more fireworks and confetti thrown in the air than anyone has ever seen in years :)

"short and pretty" well 1 outta 2 ain't bad eh

galvo: this is all i could muster my friends. i will return with supplemental comics for you all soon xoxo Yeah me too. Apologies all.

this is all i could muster my friends. i will return with supplemental comics for you all soon xoxo
