Now for the twist!
The Theme and Guidelines
You may only use ms paint, and all characters must be drawn in stick-figure format! The reasoning behind this is that everyone should be comfortable participating. I don't want anybody to feel discouraged to enter because they don't have an advanced program or tablet, so for this round you won't need one!
In addition to the specific guidelines mentioned above, there is also a theme for this first round of entries. After leaving people uninspired from my last theme, I have decided on Seto Kaiba's day off. Not the most original idea, but a heck of a lot of fun.

You may stray from the theme a bit, but try to make it relate. Comedy is good and will make me smile, so don't worry about offending Kaiba fans with something rediculous. & if anybody has questions or needs clarification, feel free to post it here or pm me anytime! =D
Now... for the moment you've all been waiting for... the PRIZES!
