Image Caption Competition

Lord of the Rings · #1 (**permalink**) October 1st, 2009

Images will be posted once a month. Members can post their imaginations of what caption fits best to the image. The best caption will be rewarded for one month, but also recorded as one of the all time winners.

Rules & Instructions

1. The idea of this competition is to study the picture that is put up on this thread page once a month, and create a suitable, humorous 'caption' for it. Examples can usually be found below this post. Older winners can be found in the 2nd post of this thread.
2. The competition is judged by a panel of experienced forum members. The best ones win.
3. To play, underneath the caption picture click on Post Reply. Then post a comment, to post an entry!
4. Each registered member is allowed a maximum of 3 entries per competition (if you do more than one on a post it still counts as multiple entries) Any more than 3 will either be removed/deleted or ignored.
5. All decisions about the winner are final & no feedback acceptable about the decision.
6. The winner will be listed at the bottom of the forum leaders page to show the whole world that they won for a whole month! Their username will be listed in large green bold italics so their posts & username stand out from everyone elses! Also their User Title will be changed for one month to This month's "Caption Winner" (see sample below.) Caption winner will get a month's access to a 'Bonus Games' Category of games in the Arcade. This Bonus category is presently holding 36 extra selective fun games. Many of these games are quite different to others in the arcade & some are a laugh just to play.
7. There also might be other 'awards' given for runners up or certain captions that were popular but didn't win. If plentiful (many) entrants for this month's caption contest, we will look at possibility of a runner-up prize with access to Bonus games section.

July saw two equal runners-up rewarded with one month's access to a Bonus Games section in the arcade. Only mods/VM's & image caption winners/runners-up have access to this Bonus Games category which is now divided into two special bonus categories. The category is normally hidden to all other members.
8. All caption submissions must abide by the Forum Rules (click here)

Be quick to get your caption posted or else you'll be out of time. October 31st deadline! (last day of each month!) To post a caption, post a reply to this thread! The competition has now started! This month's image is below:
