@JO: I am also a little surprised you never made a strip about the crappy her0 vs. Cure match. My office-mate still says it was fixed, and after the recent game fixing controversies, I wouldn't be surprised if it was.
A few weeks ago this comic would have sailed right over my head. As it happens, my office-mate is an avid Starcraft II player and he has been having me watch GSL for months, so I actually get what this is about. Neat. :P
