Caption Contest Vote Requests and Discussion

Sat Feb 07, 2015 12:41 pm

As my streak continues, I figured it's probably better to create a single topic for the Caption Contest before all the old boards completely take over the recent topics list. (Probably should have done this sooner -- mods, feel free to merge if you're so inclined...) Do you think I should edit current contest info directly into the first post each week, or just leave it as a new post at the end? I could put the info from the first week into a spoiler for posterity.

2/21-2/24/2015:
I made it into another CC!
Snowbunny [To Meepit]: And that's how you hypnotize someone, according to the book. Why did you want to know?
Meepit [To Doglefox]: When you wake up...
Snowbunny: What did you do?!?

2/7/2015: I made it into the contest again! I appreciate any and all votes you can throw my way. You can vote every 4 hours.

My caption:
Babaa: How is schadenfreude pronounced again?
Elvin: I think it's "shot-in-forehead." *snickers*

Congrats on the really good streak you have been having Siniri. :)

I am going to attempt the next one. Voting when I can. Good luck.

Wow. Congrats, Siniri. I am happy to see TNT accepting "high brow" humor. Schadenfreude, indeed.

Voting has commenced. Having the link in your siggie is very helpful :)

I was tickled that TNT picked that one, too! I submitted plenty of low brow humor captions, too, but I have a special fondness for the ten-cent pun.

And your wish is my command.

ETA: Tuesday 2/10: Today's the final push (voting ends in about 7-8 hours or so). I'm in good contention for silver right now, but might be able to make gold with a final push. Thanks for all your support.

Voting! I'm just clicking the shortcut on my phone to vote, but not really tracking the last time I voted. It would be great if the caption contest told you how long before you can vote again like the buried treasure does...

Sorry, you have to wait another 29 minutes to play vote again :(

I've been voting when I can. These last few days have been bad for computer time, though. :(

I think it will close before I can vote one more time today :(

Thanks for all your support! I managed 8th (silver) this time, which is pretty awesome since I really didn't do any advertising outside of friends.

Congrats on silver! I wish I could've voted more (I think I managed 2 per day?) but this last week has just been crazy!

You and me both! I only averaged 2-3 votes a day myself, and it was my own trophy on the line! I really appreciate (all of) you taking time out of your busy schedule(s) to vote for me.

Edit: I missed out on last week's, but I made it into this week's contest!

Voted, and will try to vote as much as possible. Today and tomorrow are pretty busy, though!

My training takes 4 hours, so every time I do a new course, I vote. It has been working out very well as a reminder!! :)

Thanks for the votes! As of last night I was in contention for a silver trophy, which would be nice for the extra NP. But I unfortunately am AFK most of the day, so it makes it hard for me to vote myself.

Voting! Having the direct voting link in your PPT siggie is a huge help for me and has accounted for at least 3 or 4 "extra" votes I may have otherwise missed ;)

Thanks, guys, for all your support! If you can squeeze in any more votes today, I'm within a stone's throw of gold, which would be nice for the trophy multiplier.

Or you could bump my neoboard for me if it drifts too low: http://www.neopets.com/neoboards/topic. ... =156879044

Thanks again!
