comicmixmarchmadnesssquare-6202096UPDATE: Round 5 voting is over… Vote in the Final Four Now!

Round 5… and we’re down to the Elite 8!

Even heavier voting this time around, with the highest contestants getting nearly 12,000 votes. Voting has gotten so passionate that some folks are resorting to YouTube videos to spread the word.

In upset news, last year’s winner Erfworld got knocked out in Round 4, along with two contenders from Blind Ferret Entertainment. And with this being the deciding round to see who wins the $50 gift card from Amazon for picking the Final Four, we expect even more passionate arguing this time around.

Round 5 starts right now, and ends this Saturday night, March 31, at 11:59 PM, Eastern Daylight Time. We’re down to four contests, and none of them get easier… we hear the howls of agony in the comments threads over who to choose starting already. Go vote!

comicmixmarchmadnesssquare-4597257UPDATE: Round 2 voting is closed! Round 3 voting is open right now!

128 webcomics are down to 64, and the battles continue!

The last round of voting was much more than we anticipated, with almost each of the contests getting more votes than last year’s final round. The server started to have problems, compounded with what we think might have been bot attacks to affect some voting. We took the weekend to try and get things right, and we think we’re ready for the next round. (And yes, we’re trying to figure out what remedy, if any, we should apply.)

Round starts right now, and ends this Wednesday at 11:59 PM, Eastern Daylight Time. We’re down to 32 contests, so go vote already!

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!

comicmixmarchmadness550x681-2448089This month we took sixty-four popular webcomics and put them head to head in a single-elimination tournament. We’re now in round three– the Sweet 16!

Erfworld continues its dominance in the brackets, with Kawaii Not showing surprising strength. Theater Hopper is surprisingly quiet, but they’ve gotten late traction before.

And at this point, nobody has an insurmountable lead– anybody can make a call out to their followers and retake the lead, and after two days of hand-to-hand electioneering at C2E2, the scores can really change. Every match is still too close to call.

So get your votes in– and see who becomes the Elite 8!

Our own logs are also showing respectable traffic going out to all the participating strips, and we’re getting reports of people reading entire runs at a shot– which has got to be spiking numbers for everybody, which was part of the idea.

Mix March Madness Webcomics Tournament: Round 2 Play By Play!

  • News
  • March 18, 2011

comicmixmarchmadness550x681-5421982As you’ve seen if you’ve been following the site at all this week, we’ve taken sixty-four popular webcomics and are putting them head to head in a single-elimination tournament. As a result, it’s been a very busy week here at ComicMix, and we have less than 35 hours of voting in the first round, so we wanted to point to some of the highlights.

The contests getting the highest vote totals right now are Gronk vs. My Sister the FREAK, followed closely by PvP vs. Erfworld, which is not quite as bad a blowout as last time, but Erfworld is still looking pretty strong.

But at this point, nobody has an insurmountable lead– anybody can make a call out to their followers and retake the lead, and after two days of hand-to-hand electioneering at C2E2, the scores can really change. Every match is still too close to call.

So get your votes in– if you haven’t voted, your chance is right below! You get to determine who makes it to the Sweet 16!
