Now that we have a plethora of new participating members, I figured I'd attempt to bring back my favorite contest: The Caption Contest. Feel free to add this to the old thread as needed. Rules are simple: I post a picture, everyone tries to come up with a caption (I'll say no more than 10 words, maybe we can make it less/harder as it goes on). The winner that I choose, will get to post the next picture (and then they choose the next winner) and so on and so on. So here is the first picture: ![]() Good luck to all!

I don't know... what should be the prize? I'll give you guys a week to guess. I think for the first one 2 guesses since I didn't tell anyone, but I think trhe next one we should only have one. That's just my opinion. Makes it more challenging and requires more thinking. Any thoughts? Edited by thecostumedanceparty, Apr 29 2012, 05:34 PM.

Closing date: Sounds fair enough. Prizes: I don't remember the exact numbers, but when we did this last time, it was something like 50 posts for 1st place, 25 for 2nd, 10 for 3rd, and 5 for everyone else. Number of guesses: I don't really mind what you do here. I think last time the limit was three, but only the best one was entered. |

I don't think people should get 5 for entering, however I agree with 50/1, 25/2, 10/3 as well as everything else. I guess three entries are okay for this round, but maybe it can get tougher rules as it goes on or something. |

Okay then. If I had my choice, it would be just the first place winner getting 25 posts only because there are so many other contests and I find the game a matter of fun rather than a game for free points. If I could initiate this, and the runner-ups get 10 posts, I think that's what I'd like the most. 1st place: 25 2nd place: 10 3rd place: 10 Possible honorable mention: 5 |

Well, if that's what you want to do, then you can. I'd likely stick with it if I end up hosting future rounds, for the sake of consistency. |

That's just what I prefer, but then again like I said, I'm not the one giving out the points. |

I upped the post count for winners (please see below) 1st place: Catface with "Mission Complete. Hover Cat returning to hanger 18." I lol’d. You didn't even need the second chance you asked for. +30 posts 2nd place: rmnldr with “Really, my legs? This ends right meow.” You know me with puns… +20 posts 3rd place: Shiny Star with “Legs are too mainstream.” Pretty funny +10 posts Since Catface is the winner, he is the one who gets to post the next picture.

Yeah that is right. Guy in skirt: "I've got a passion for fashion, sista." Guy in front: "FREAKY sight. It's not Halloween." I know, pretty lame. I'll try coming up with something better. |
