Ok, I can understand how a lot of people don't find Penny Arcade their cup of tea. It's sense of humor takes a certain mindset, and a lot of the time you have to read Tycho's front page post to understand them. Those can put people off it, and that's perfectly reasonable.
But come on, which of any of those comics can say they used the clout of their readership to spawn TWO conventions that tens of thousands of people (many of them video game industry big wigs) and a charity drive that raises millions of dollers for sick children, created two video games, a documentery, and annihilated a media demagogue by taking the high road.
So Penny Arcade getting 2%? People are honestly saying, with a straight face, that Navy Bean is a better comic? The Least One Can Do is nearly as popular?
And no Sluggy? No Something Positive? I've never even heard of some of these comics and I've been pretty into webcomics since 2001.
I like and read a lot of those comics, and it's not a big deal really, but this poll is a little bit of a joke, small sample size be damned.
