WINNER OF THE SA Vs. FARK PHOTOSHOP BATTLE!!!
For weeks tension had been building as the crumb-bums over at Drew Curtis' FARK bitched about Drew Curtis' Something Awful and how their Photoshop abilities were superior to those of our readers and forum goers. The rage burned within my heart at these scandalous comments and I found no recourse but to throw out the challenge: BEAT US IN A PHOTOSHOP BATTLE OR DIE TRYING. On January 21st I made this challenge formal with the first ever Drew Curtis' SA Vs. Drew Curtis' FARK Photoshop competition. Drew Curtis of Drew Curtis' FARK suggested space nerd Wil Wheaton as the perfect choice for the celebrity judge.
So Drew Curtis of Drew Curtis' FARK gathered up Drew Curtis' FARK's ten best entries and I gathered up Drew Curtis' Something Awful's ten best entries and we submitted them to space nerd Wil Wheaton of Drew Curtis' space nerd Wil Wheaton Dot Netl. His instructions were to judge each entry based on three factors; comedic value, concept, and execution. In between getting rejected for acting gigs and running the deep fryer at a Popeye's Fried Chicken, space nerd Wil Wheaton took the time to judge the entries and provide a comment about each. First the FARK entries
