Vote in the Mix March Madness 2012 Webcomics Tournament First Round!

comicmixmarchmadnesssquare-1017597UPDATE: Round 1 voting is closed! Round 3 voting is open right now!

First, thank you to the thousands of people who voted in the nominating process, as well as all of you who added your favorite webcomics to the list. We’re adding all of the webcomics you suggested to our directory.

But now, the challenges start!

These are the top 128 webcomics you’ve chosen, and we’re running a single elimination tournament to winnow down to the favorite. There are so many webcomics, we’ve had to break them up into four divisions– Giraud, Moldoff, Robinson, and Simon. The winner of each division will get $25 in their tip jar and advance to the Final Four. Whoever ends in second place will get $50, and the winner will walk away with $100. UPDATE: And if you’re first to pick the Final Four, you will win a $50 gift card from Amazon!

The first round starts right now, and ends Friday at midnight. We’re starting with 64 contests, so go vote already!

  1. Nah, this is just a popularity contest with little to show that the comics are all that good. I’ve seen some here that are higher rated then others even though the story lines and art work of the winners are worse then the losers. Most like vote stacking is going on too.

    All this means is that this so called tournament means very little and not worth participating in.

  2. Well, I only voted in the pairings that included strips I actually read. Some others I’ve seen but don’t regularly read.

    I’ll confess that I was tempted to vote for Kawaii Not just on the strength of the name, which is brilliant.

    1. I discovered No Rest for the Wicked through this tournament, and I absolutely love it!

      1. I’m guessing the people who don’t like storylines where one of the characters is revealed to have raped the other, but it was okay because he had to do it to save her life, and the only people still mad at him turned out to be under the influence of a demon.

  3. More people need to be voting for cucumber quest and boxer hockey! They are both amazing webcomics and deserve to have more votes than they do

  4. Hell Spacetrawler is up for a Hugo award and is loosing to whatever it is paired with.

  5. What kind of idiot votes for CAD? It is a bad comic drawn by a bad man and anyone who votes for it should feel bad.

    1. i did
      so i guess
      I’m Bad, I’m Bad, Come On
      (Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
      You Know I’m Bad, I’m Bad, You Know It
      (Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
      You Know I’m Bad, I’m Bad Come On, You Know
      (Bad Bad-Really, Really Bad)
      And The Whole World Has To Answer Right Now
      Just To Tell You Once Again,
      Who’s Bad . . .

  6. Achewood lost…to Dominic Deegan?! I don’t even…shachkghsdkghscgscezoi WHY.

    also Vattu lost to MegaTokyo. 😐

    1. Voting for Round 1 ended at midnight. Round 2 will be going up soon.Sent from my iPhone

      1. For the next round, would you please specify the date, time, and timezone for the voting deadline? I discovered this vote Friday evening but after spending a while fruitlessly searching for a vote button was forced to conclude that your midnight is not the same as my midnight.

  7. Is there a mailing list or something to alert us when to vote? I spent more time than I would like looking around this page to see if I was missing the vote button.

    Maybe if the promoters werent to sof abosrbed they could update the webpage with a VOTING OVER banner or some other indication that what we see is just a lot of FYI?

    1. i’m not actually this much of a grump in the afternoon,
      it’s still morning here :-[
