Dear Facepunch,
I’m ready to make my major announcement…
After months of planning, my big brother and I are ready to share our secret project with the world.
Before I reveal our secret, I just want to take the time to thank you all for sharing your thoughts on Spicy Tornado the last several weeks. You are an insightful community, and I appreciate all the feedback (yes, even some of the bashing). I strive to grow as both an artist and a person each and everyday, and I believe you all have taught me something new.
Additionally, I think most of you have an incredible sense of humor and I get a real kick out of spending time around you. I sincerely hope to spend a lot more time getting to know you all in the coming weeks.
As you know, my brother and I are depending on Spicy Tornado to become profitable soon. Believe it or not, our traffic has grown by leaps and bounds, and I believe we are on the pathway to success.
But in addition to being financially stable, we also want to be happy. That is why we are launching our passion project…
Introducing Potluck Comics:

Yes, my big brother and I really are launching another webcomic. Only this time we will not create any of the comics (which may be a relief to some of you Negative Nathans).
Instead, we shall reach out to the talented internet folk that are capable of making wonderful creations.
Every day we are going to publish one amazing comic that has been submitted to us. We will be sure to include a prominent section all about the author. After all, this site will be a place to celebrate the fine folk with the magic touch, not my brother and I.
Lastly, we will be giving away prize money to the creators of the best four comics we receive during our first month of operation. The odds of winning won’t be bad either. We will publish no more than 30 comics during the first month, and four will be declared winners.
I would be honored to have some of you submit your creations to my new site.
Heck, I would be honored if you even just checked out my new site:

Jasper
Something is wrong with me. I cant see any problem with that.
I like it! Nice job, man. Sorry about what I said earlier.
Seems like a novel concept (at least, I personally have yet to see something like this), but the way that you and any other administrators run the site are key to its success. Attracting attention to the site from competent artists is needed, which you have shown the potential to do by offering the $300 prize for the winner of the proposed contest. Speaking of which, are you sure you're willing to give away $300? That might not be a good idea from the start, seeing as you didn't make any money from your previous endeavor. Consider starting a bit smaller.

That's brilliant. The comics are funny, too,

You need to really get some advertising on there, though.
Thats really cool Spicy. I like that idea.

Question, though....
how are you [i]paying[/i] for these domain names and hosting if you don't even have a stable job?
Anyway, I plan on submitting a comic or two to this site once I get home.
Writer's block is a bitch.
I'm starting to think Spicy Tornado inherited a large sum of money and just likes pissing it away in weird things.
I like this one's concept tho. :buddy:

holy shit this is actually a good idea
but you really should get some ads i mean if you do i'll unblock the site from my adblocker and even click on a few of the ads so you can keep this idea going
Mr spicytornado, you actually have a brilliant idea going now. Get some ads on it, I'll click some of them, and you will actually make alot of money eventually if you keep it up.
Call me skeptical, but I think that spicy tornado was an intentionally bad product in order for people to go 'hah! look at this complete crap!' then they sign up to message boards and go on talking about their 'awesome comic series' and people laugh at them. Then they make an announcement about an actual GOOD idea for a comic site, and BAM instantly, hundreds of hits.
If this is the case, bravo, Mr. Spicy Tornado. Bra-fucking-vo.
[editline]9th June 2011[/editline]
But Potluck comics is seriously a good idea.
[editline]9th June 2011[/editline]
Also, a bit of advice that should be rather obvious: make sure it's always Original Content from people that submit to you. If it isn't, there's grounds for legal action since you're making money (And so is the person submitting it. (If they win.))
Spicy tornado was bad.
Potluck comics is actually rather good.
I suggest you abandon Spicy tornado and make your money from Potluck. If this is your 'passion project' and it has the possibility of going a long way, you could do rather well.
How do you get money?
[editline]9th June 2011[/editline]
How?
I opened this thread and the tornado sirens went off outside. I'm serious
Holy shit, Thats actualy kind of cool...
I'm confused now, I have no where for my hate to go...

And they didn't make it. Proving our criticism correct in the end :buddy: While this is a slightly more viable idea than SpicyTornado, you had better stick some advertising up on the site or once again, you won't make any money and it will all go to waste.
That's actually a really good idea, and the comics are rather high quality as well. Good show. :golfclap:
Way to go Jasper, it's awesome.

My thoughts exactly, and lets be honest - this is true.
Good marketing Jasper.
Ha, that's actually badass.
You get a thumbs up, Jasper.
Why don't some FPers submit some comics?
[QUOTE=killerteacup;30360888]Why don't some FPers submit some comics?[/QUOTE]
I will gladly submit one if you can provide some ideas.
I have none.
Pretty good idea you have there.
Also, where are the ads?
[QUOTE=Wealth + Taste;30362446]Pretty good idea you have there.

Well, Jasper seems to have been thinking all this time that he could piss away all his money on a domain and host and somehow become big in revenue without a single advertisement.
I'll have to ask how that works.
45 pages of Jasper hate and laughs. 1 and first page of Jasper impression.
[QUOTE=mixshifter;30364333]45 pages of Jasper hate and laughs. 1 and first page of Jasper [b]impression.[/b][/QUOTE]
We impersonated Jasper for a whole page? Wow!
I'd throw you guys a comic, but my drawing skills fall a bit short of the $300 prize. How ironic, I mocked Jasper's drawing and now I'm mocking my own.
I want 1 more comic from the Legendary Mr.SpicyTornado before this whole thing takes off.
This is actually a fantastic way to shed some light on some unknown but talented artists. Bravo, Mr Tornado.

That's fucking genius.
But you guys seriously need to put some ads on your site.
