Title: Moogie the Generous: PlaneShift Caption Competition!
Post by: Moogie on September 13, 2003, 04:11:04 am
Yay, another competition!

And now with added prizemoney. This time there will be one winner, rewarded with a whopping 1000 rubies!

The rules are simple. There are 4 screencaptures below, numbered 1-4. You must choose one of them and come up with the best, funniest, cleverest caption for it that you can possibly conjure. You then post the number of your chosen picture with the caption underneath.

To be absolutely clear: There\'s 4 choices, you choose one of them and post one caption only. You can\'t post a caption for each of the four pictures, and you can\'t post more than one caption for the picture that you chose- I\'m afraid doing that will disqualify you from the compo, so pick your best and eject the rest! :)


OPTION 1:

OPTION 3:

OPTION 4:

This competition is valid untill 12am (GMT) Saturday 20th September. That\'s 1 week from now.

I\'ll be judging the entries and I\'ll announce the winner at 12:30am. I have no idea how successful this will be (partly why I offered 4 choices and not just 1)... so let\'s see how it goes. Good luck everyone! :)

My caption for #2:

Rumors about the failing eyesight of the Enkidukai Council are confirmed, as our vertically challenged reporter shows in the picture above.

Option 2:

\"Ok, girls ... and guy. Listen up. Welcome to the first anual meeting of the Catgirls Bikini Club. Tonight we\'re - HEY! Who the hell are you? Get lost, you pervert! Geeze, little men think they\'re so big. Anyways, where was I? ...\"

;) Good to be postin\' for ya again, Moogster. :D Nice thread idea.
Title:
Post by: Wedge on September 13, 2003, 05:48:03 am
I don\'t think this is valid, but I wanna post it anyway :D

Option 3:

Draklar-
\"I have gathered you all here to embark upon a great mission, to restore truth, justice, and order to the land!  A hanus band of thieves has stolen a great national treasure, and we must seek them out and take it back!\"

Moogie-
\"Sounds good, but what is this treasure?\"

Draklar-
\"It is a coveted and powerful artifact that must not be lost to the hands of the vile!\"

Moogie-
\"The Staff of Trenlial?  The Menian Crest?  The Holy Crystal Shard!?\"

Draklar-
\"No, no, no, this is far more important than any of those... \"

Draklar-
\"They have taken... Mr.  Squeaky!!!\"

Moogie-
\"Your catnip mouse?\"

Draklar-
\"Y-y-ye-yeah.\"

*Everyone leaves*

Draklar-
\"Noooooooo!  Mr. Squeeeeeeeakyyyyy!!!\"
Title:
Post by: Moogie on September 13, 2003, 06:04:53 am
LOL :D Great post Wedge. It\'s funny but it\'s more like a dialogue than a caption.

Captions need to be short. They can be narrative, aka Kith\'s entry, or one-liner quotes such as Jedi\'s.


Keep \'em coming. :)

:P jk ... No, seriously, I\'m kidding. 8|

[Homer]Don\'t worry, I can explain everything. And remember, I can explain. Oh, why won\'t you let me explain?[/Homer]

...:D Ok, that\'s enough Simpsons quoting for now. 8)

Just a matter of curiosity,do you have a sword and a mug in the same hand?

Post by: Tranor on September 13, 2003, 07:11:27 am
Option 3:

October 23, Day of the Sacrifice to the Ainur (creators of the world)  

Draklar says, \"We are looking for volunteers to participate in today\'s services.\"
Title:
Post by: Jedi on September 13, 2003, 07:14:00 am
Lol. \"...Yes, see here, I have these nice, big swords with me. Aren\'t they nice? I thought so. The gods said I could kill people with them, but only if I did on a certain day in a certain place.\"

:D
Title:
Post by: Wedge on September 13, 2003, 08:02:48 am
Well OK... ummm nope I can\'t do one liners or narratives, but really this isn\'t much longer than Jedi\'s, as illustrated at the bottom.  I just have it seperated for clarity and effect.

Option 3:

Draklar-
 \"We gather here today, to mourn the passing of a dear friend and a great hero.\"

Draklar-
\"Rest in peace Mr. Squeaky...\"

Dameon-
\"He was a toy Drak, a catnip mouse toy!\"

Draklar-
*sniff* \"Quiet!  He was my friend, you could never understand!\" *cries*


 \"We gather here today, to mourn the passing of a dear friend and a great hero.  Rest in peace Mr. Squeaky... --He was a toy Drak, a catnip mouse toy!-- *sniff* Quiet!  He was my friend, you could never understand! *cries*\"

Hahaha. Great idea again Moogie :D
Hat off to Wedge, funny little man ;)

Post by: Keldorn on September 13, 2003, 02:38:45 pm
I can\'t see the pictures :/

guess I\'m the only one.
Title:
Post by: Moogie on September 13, 2003, 05:44:10 pm
Jedi: Yup, I have a Sabremug in that picture :D

That\'s what happens when you give something you have equipped away, and equip a replacement to the same hand. The mug is a ghost, while the sword is really there.

Post by: Xalthar on September 13, 2003, 06:11:45 pm
Option 3:

Alright, You\'ve brought us all here... now where are the free T-shirts!!?

[EDIT]

Option 4:

Choirmaster: \"alright, one, two, one, two, three, four!

Choir:
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Heh, that\'s pretty good, zaphar.

To 73h m00gster: Lol 8) Ghost mug. That\'s funny.

Moogie: Stay away or I\'ll stab you with my mug! Huzzah!

Let\'s drink to that. ;)

Post by: Moogie on September 13, 2003, 10:02:45 pm
Kiern: I would, but these are the best I had. I only gave 4 options because none of them were all that special and I didn\'t think any of them would do well on their own.

Besides, it\'s getting late in the days of Molecular Blue... gotta do this before it\'s too late to enjoy the prizemoney, don\'t\'cha think? :)

(Had a bit of a crisis today. Seems that I DIDN\'T have 1000 rubies left over after buying my Sabre... those 12 diamonds I saw must\'ve been ghosts! I\'m so stupid... anyways, Draklar has very very kindly donated the prizemoney to me, which I\'ll be paying through my nose for for several months. :P Thank you Draklar!!)

\"I spy with my little eye, something beginning with T.\"
\"Tunnels.\"
\"Darn...\"

Option 1:

?Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack jump over the candlestick?? Unfortunately upon hearing the nursery rhyme Jack the dwarf had failed to realise he wasn?t nimble or quick? He was later rushed to hospital with singed shoelaces.

Edit: if you want to be more brash/rude replace the word shoelaces with the words pubic hair
Title:
Post by: Draklar on September 14, 2003, 06:58:45 pm
Option 1:

\"Moogie was not drunk!\"

Great scandal shocked whole Hydlaa city, as Half-Pint\'s beer-banting method turned out to be a fake.
Experts say that \"Even drunkard can hold you up on his sword\" is a lie, since \"drunkard\" shown on picture is Moogie, which, as we all know, doesn\'t know how to hold mug right... Therefore mug wasn\'t emptied in \'traditional\' way, but because of, poor kitty\'s, lack of skill in mug-wielding.


btw Moogs, you still using those old female enkidukai textures?
Title:
Post by: seperot on September 14, 2003, 07:21:48 pm
dril one:

\"are you sure this is the way to the diamond horde?\"
 
\"*sniff* yea this way\"

*scuttling sound*
 
\"what was that?\"

 \" diamonds?\"

 \"kwartz areyou sure this is still molecular blue? i dont remeber this tunnel.\"

 \" dont be silly moogie we whould know if this was cb whouldent we? moogie?\"

 **looks around to see moogies gone**

 \"ah well more diamons for me\"

**kwarts then knowtes his arm is gone**

 \"darn bugs\" poor kwartz never spoke again  :(

Option 3 :

-- Typical Planeshift classroom --

Good morning... Sit down now and open your book page 23 ... Today, we will learn the art of fighting with two weapons... No Moogie, a mug isn\'t a viable weapon...



;)

(extra one, not in the Competition)
Option 4 :

I SAID you that the swimming pool was empty!
Title: My entry
Post by: Kluger on September 18, 2003, 07:55:04 pm
Moogie, I think I rebuild PS more than you.  ;-)  I rebuild nearly twice a week on six systems...

For screenshot 4:

(http://www.myimgs.com/data/moogie2/option%204.jpg)

\"Graduating class of BBCSU: Barnum and Bailey Circus Sideshow University.  Congratulations!  From right to left:

Hillbilly \"Toothless\" Gums - Proudly holding his graduation gift of a longsword to help him chop up his milk so that he can drink it.  Congratulations!

Mary \"Hadalittle\" Gas - The camera flash really brought out the toxicity of her, um, gift.  Conflatulations!

Lemme \"Axeyoua\" Question - This sneaky little guy spiked the punch, and boy did it hurt!  Good luck!

(Behind Lemme) Edward Scissorthumbs - Edward says that he probably won\'t enter the Barnum and Bailey Sideshow profession.  He\'ll be transferring to medical school, as he really is a genius of a doctor.  He performed his birth (c-section).  Farewell, Edward!

(Behind Edward) Darryl \"And\" Darryl - The siamese twins have long been great help as the school security guard.  Darryl says he\'ll be getting married after graduation.  Extra congratulations!

(Next to Lemme) - Cousin \"Malepatternbaldness\" It - This brave older man came out of retirement to represent everyone from his ethnicity.

(Far left) - Bob - Graduate with honors.  Thank you for attending.  *grumble*

Edit: (Fixed Italics)  Moogie, what is the size limit?  I know this is way too long, but I don\'t know what to trim it to.

I\'ve decided not to limit the size, although one-liners are always more funny in a contest like this. :)

You have 7 and a half hours left to enter, from now (4:30pm GMT)

Okay guys and girls, thank you all for entering, the competition is now closed! 3 hours and 12 minutes later than I planned, but what can I say... I forgot...  ;(

It was a close call. Jedi\'s first entry was just the kind of thing I was looking for. Wedge\'s post, although not really a \'caption\' as such, was still incredibly funny. I also thought Zaphar did good to see the hidden meaning in picture 4. :)

But, there must be an overall winner... so the 1000 ruby award goes to the winner of the second ever Moogie the Generous competition, and that winner is... *drumroll*



JEDI!
*crowd applauds wildly*


Just incase you forgot, here\'s the winning caption:

(http://www.myimgs.com/data/moogie2/option%202.jpg)

\"Ok, girls ... and guy. Listen up. Welcome to the first anual meeting of the Catgirls Bikini Club. Tonight we\'re - HEY! Who the hell are you? Get lost, you pervert! Geeze, little men think they\'re so big. Anyways, where was I? ...\"


Congrats Jedi! You win 1000 sparkling ruby crystals. Dont\'cha feel special?

Well done to everyone else who entered. They were all funny to read; thanks for contributing! :)


Watch out for more Moogie the Generous contests... I already know what my next one is gonna be. ;)

\"After seeing everyone staggering around, carrying beer mugs, the newbie police officer, who was not accustomed to seeing the effects of lag, started ordering people to walk the straight line.\"  :D

Congratulations, Jedi!

I\'ll just have to find some other way to pay for my sick mother\'s operation, I guess.  :(

(That reminds me...my mom actually asked me to set her up on Planeshift.  That will be....interesting.)

*Screams like a girl* OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! WOW! This is, like, so totally awesome! Wow, you guys are great! I can\'t thank you enough. I really couldn\'t have done it without you. Thanks guys! *hyperventilates and passes out*

*Real Jedi walks in...nudges unconscious imposter with foot...leans down and takes bag of money...walks to the door, tipping his hat to Moogie on the way out.*

Thank you, one and all. I was actually very surprised to find out that I won. I thought that surely some other captions were better than my own, but I guess someone had to win. Maybe I\'ll donate some crystals back to Moogie to help her pay off her debt to Draklar. ;)

Thanks anyways, guys. Your all winners in your own way. :D
