The Taser the Gnome Game is a game in the Strong Bad Email from work. The object of the game is to click the gnome as many times as possible, to get the highest score. You score 50 points each time you taser the gnome. Occasionally, you will see advertisements for an Xbox, an iPod, or a PlayStation Portable. The game is a parody of online banner ads that urge you to play a short game in order to get a prize. The bar on the right side is a reference to all the banner ads that encourage you to click on your state to get low mortgage rates.
The advertisement for the Xbox reads "Get free!", the iPod advertisement reads "Priced out!", and the PlayStation Portable ad reads "Plastic sells plenty!"
The gnome-tasering game's score system is only meant to hold five digits, and hitting 100,000+ will result in the last digit getting cut off.
Ironically, mortgage advertisements (in a different form) were parodied previously in Senor Mortgage.
Apparently, Strong Bad tasered the gnome ten times.
