I didn’t mention it here, but the Round 3 “who gets kicked off” poll went up Sunday night over on the forum – so if you didn’t see it and haven’t voted yet, you can do that now!

(Another thing I didn’t mention – Monday’s strip was strip #1400!)

Two new voting bonuses up today – a bad translation of today’s strip, and a sprite strip featuring Contestant 6.

Round 3 of Rumormonger Idol continues today, with Contestant 5 and Contestant 6 up as today’s voting bonuses. The “who gets kicked off poll” will go up this weekend!

British Invasion week with Peter Noone and Lulu got me to watch the other Idol (the one on TV) this week, and it was actually pretty good. I don’t know if a British Invasion week would work for Rumormonger Idol – though maybe they could talk about the rumor going around that the Dave Clark Five didn’t get in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year because the votes were fixed… (They’ve denied it, but then I wouldn’t really expect them to admit it!)

Round 3 of Rumormonger Idol starts today, with Contestant 2 up at buzzComix and Contestant 4 up at TopWebcomics today!

If you have any thoughts on how the contestants are doing, you can think them here!

For a quick break from Rumormonger Idol, today’s voting bonus is a Pi Day-related sketch!

It had to happen eventually! My printer’s black ink cartridge finally ran out of ink – it had been threatening to do that for over half a year. So I put in one of the replacements I bought last November.

For today’s voting bonuses, something that didn’t take quite as long as that: The Rumormonger Idol round 2 results! In the bonus strip at buzzComix, this round’s loser is revealed – and he has some parting words in the bonus at TopWebcomics. (Of course, anyone who’s seen the poll results on the forum already knows who’s getting kicked off, so I COULD just tell you it’s Contestant 3… but of course I wouldn’t do that.) Thanks for voting!
