To get a girl gamer to notice you: Stalk her on Steam, and join her in TF2. Pocket medic her and don’t drop uber until she tries to rush the point. Friends 4 lyfe.
You lost my respect forever by making two posts about “maybe she’s a fake gamer”. Fuck you. Fuck you forever. Just because people, especially women, don’t share the exact same interests as you doesn’t mean they’re fake. And you’re a douche.
1) It’s not Celesse doing that. It’s GaMERCaT. Assume she’s just trying to make an accurate description of a Male gamer, bcuz evidently, males think that.
2) The author is female
3) This comic is the best evr, srsly
Did I get that right >.< Please don't complain about my spelling either. No.
Also to add onto M505, even if she was a male purposely being ignorant and using “real gamer” seriously, yelling about it and shouting “Fuck you” doesn’t do a damn thing. Does the perception that if a woman is playing a game then she might be a “fake gamer” need to stop? Most definitely. But not explaining why to the offending party and instead just jumping to “fuck you fuck you fuck you” will never solve anything, only contributing to the problem.
This is normal in the gaming community, though it needs to stop. Last night in my town at our local GameStop there was a gaming competition and I entered for SSBB. Using a pseudonym and dressing in drag, I managed to convince everyone there (except for the few there who knew who I really was) that I was male (which I’m not, if you didn’t get that already). I, by some skill but mostly luck, won the battle. When my dear boyfriend answered “This girl right here!” and scruffled my hair when the staff member asked who won, the crowd around us was shocked and outraged that I a)was a girl, and b) defeated them so easily. Multiple called me a cheater, demanded a rematch and pissed and moaned about being “beaten by a girl”.
But nonetheless I won my bragging rights, slung my GaMERCaT bag over my shoulder, and walked away knowing I was more of a gamer than the sore losers still in the store took me for.

I know you wrote this a year ago, and may never see this post, but… this is an awesome story. (I’m a guy.)
army size means nothing in that game… oh boy, you leave your house from time to time and/or homepass. Gee whiz. What a big deal that is. It’s also a million years old and any self respecting person who actually plays the plaza games, especially the ones that cost money, is already maxed out at 9,999,999…
OH GOD â—‹wâ—‹;; The people here in my creek will go crazy over this comic…!
See, there’s someone a lot like Pixel ’round here. A mysterious girl (we assume, given her Mii) who swooped through the scoreboards on 1st place. Nobody knows who’s she, since months. Only her Mii name, “Hilda”. She became kind of a small urban legend between me and my friends, for the laughs XDD
Why is it always that the girl gamer needs to be better than the guy? Seriously, it’s in every movie/comic/form of media about gaming. Girls game als much as guys, I get it. But it’s just so rubbed in the last couple of years that it really drives me crazy.
Multiple thoughts on the why here:
1) Army size is easily identifiable, so even someone who knows nothing of the game could see that there’s a significant difference between the armys.
2) Doing the panel with them in their game outfits looks has the extra “in-game” element that’s often seen in this comic (like Sweet at Peach a handful of comics back)
3) None of the other streetpass games have a quickly & easily identifiable comparison right there (true, MiiForce has high score lists, but that involves more manipulation of the game, and GC is going for a quick look, not a drawn out examination, as he’s trying to move quickly here, lest she leave before he says anything)
4) If one regularly has their gaming system on them, it would likely mean they’re regularly gaming on it, which in turn would mean that, surprisingly enough, they’re a gamer (gamers gaming, who’d have thought of such a thing) That would mean they’d get lots of street pass tags, and they’d have a decently sized army.
5) It’s a comic, and the creator wanted to (has to save the sass for last :-D)
guy
Streetpass games are still essentially baby games and anyone can just take their 3DS around. And no, your sass is garbage. I get enough people telling me that this comic is terrible and unfunny, the last thing they’d want to do is not make any sense as well. The entire comic is a waste of panels.
You seem pretty invested in the comic for it being so terrible and unfunny. You’re welcome to stop reading it if you dislike it so.
Uzi_Man
Wow, such constructive criticism. Telling the creator of this comic her work is a waste of panels is reeally going to help her improve.
You just want to get her to read your hateful comments. You want to make her feel bad because this comic doesn’t suit your taste. You feel better when you disqualify other people’s work.
You are a piece of shit.
guy
Uzi man, you are the piece of shit here, for not even reading anything of what I said.
Uzi_Man
Guy, how would you feel if you were told that something you’ve been making for years is bad, unfunny and a waste?
There are better ways to tell your thoughts, you should be more empathic with the creator’s feelings.
While I agree that streetpassing games require little to no skill to play, “unfunny” and “terrible” are relative terms that will vary depending on the person. This comic may not be fun to you or your friends, but it is for other people.

Geek romance is best romance, it’s always cute and awkward, and only romance I can feel similar to :D

Remember Gamer, to speak to a female you stand directly in front of them and then you press the A button.
assasincat49
I’ll admit that was funny
It also be funny if they were married and their arguments were turn-based RPG battles
Memory
I can’t claim credit for that gem, I saw it in another web comic though I can’t remember which one.

Whatever it’s still funny

Yeah lol

Do I smell “feminist”?
Seriously some girls should stop being so sensitive. Its a freaking comic…if you need someone to share your same views do this:
1. get a boyfriend (or girlfriend whatever you want)
2. wait for him (or her) to leave you for having a bad attitude
3. REPEAT
H
Please don’t hate on feminists. Many of us are quite nice and reasonable.

Yes, but people don’t refer to them when having a temper about the type that overreact.

Um. I do plan to make a point with this soon. GaMERCaT is indeed portraying the ignorant “real gamer” attitude and I do not share it.

Im just wondering
How did you get the inspiration for gamercat in th first place?
