Nobody Scores! is a little comic about inevitable disaster, and goes woot chimp scree as well, though in fact it is frequently a fairly large comic by puny webcomic standards, so the motto is a dirty lie. The inevitable disaster part is true however. Anything can happen in the universe where Nobody Scores! – as long as it involves pain, shame, humiliation, failure, blood. Would you like a burrito? I have plain, and also I have spicy.

[edit] History

First things first: there is no continuity in Nobody Scores!, therefore there is no history. Suck it, Fukuyama. Next!

[edit] Characters

The scenario of Nobody Scores! should be very easy to understand because just like thousands of web comics the world over it revolves around three young roommates in an apartment.

Sara - She'll tell you she's a creature of enlightened self-interest. She's got the wit, drive, determination, and sheer bitch evil of the group. Naturally she works in the marketing department of a major corporation. She likes tasteful decorations, good clean boys with good clean jobs and clear career advancement paths, hats, motivational materials, and reality TV. But, she's got enough wit, charm, and brains that you'd probably like her as a casual acquaintance. She's paying the rent.

Jane Doe - She's changed her name so many times she got fed up with the process and stuck with this one. She's been best friends with Sara since early high school (she was the cool one, Sara the nerd) and only now are the two of them starting to wonder exactly why they're still such buds. Jane's got tons of kickass impulses and sweet new obsessions and pursues them in the manner properly befitting America's least responsible citizen. She likes hard rock, hard liquor, badass guys in large amounts, and mass confusion. She is not paying the rent.

Beans - He moved in three of four months ago on the premise that he would be paying part of the rent, and that hasn't exactly materialized, so: freeloader number two. The purpose of Beans' existence is to wrestle with his art, his status as a Nice Guy with the Right Opinions, his issues, and his hangups. He likes cutting-edge art and cutting-edge music, which means of course he doesn't like either much at all. The one rare resource he's got is a functioning conscience! Aw. Fat lot of good it does him in the Nobodyscoresiverse.

Raoul - The poor sod who lives downstairs, he knows six languages, holds two doctorates, has authored a variety of influential papers, attends no less than nine important international conferences a year, and is busy compiling a definitive tome on the relationship between certain currents of late 20th century philosophy and trends in sociology. That may seem a little vague but lord knows I the author am not qualified to get any more specific about it. All this serves him well in his adjunct teaching position in a local third-tier public college, allowing him to afford a first-floor apartment below three of the greatest scourges humanity has to offer. So he hates us all.

The above is taken directly from the Nobody Scores! about page. There are also an assortment of bit characters:

Genghis Khan - Genghis Khan is just trying to make it in this wacky modern world, well, that and save up enough money to fund a new horde and raze this wacky modern world.

Skeleton Warrior - The purpose of Skeleton Warrior is to chop you up with his sword. Additionally, he may say "CREEEE."

Biff - He likes to smash beer cans on his forehead, and show off his killer combination of Brazilian jiu jitsu and Muay Thai.

Captain Krakowitz - This man is on the case. He takes no guff. What's guff, anyway? I'm hungry.

Rafael - Rafael brings the fun.

Meatbeard - Meatbeard is a new commentor for a new age, an age where anyone can contribute, much like on this here wiki, or is it pedia? I like "pedia" better. People pronounce "wiki" as "weeeekeee" which makes me want to slap them. "Pedia" is much less controversial. This is all to say, it is these kinds of questions that Meatbeard seeks to answer. Also his meatbeard flaps smoothly in the wind.
