Well, here we are in the winner’s circle. It’s been a long road getting here! We started with some “simple” nominations, and a list of our players’ favourite comics. Even that was a trickier proposition than you’d expect! Eventually, it built into a serious competition, fought between some of the “big dogs” of the comic world, some smaller ones, and some which were considered unheard of.

Although voting is done internally, to prevent vote fraud, this page will be updated daily so that anyone outside the SP community can have a chance to measure their favourite comic’s progress. The [...]
Greetz Agents and Space Pirates! So you all know we have some stuff in the works behind the scenes, and a few of you pestered me to the point of writing a blog about it. (Actually it’s sorta true; I wanted to post what we were doing timeline-wise). New GUI for StarPirates (Early June) : First or second week. Players will have a choice of the present navigation or a graphic interface. the idea is that many potential players sign [...]
