I will let this run for a couple more days, just in case someone has some great caption that they haven’t posted yet.

Expect the results to be announced this Sunday.

And with all these great captions, I’m glad that it is not me that have to pick the winners.

He’s probably trying to say that he made a “Caption Contest robot” to do the dirty work for him.

“Come be an extra in an adventure game” they said. “The only genre with realistically portrayed women” they said. I’ll never be able to explain this to the wife!


Sunny: “Yes, I get that, but what do I stand to gain from a game of strip arm-wrestling with you?”

TimovieMan - 30 July 2015 08:12 PM

Nelly: “Isn’t that cannon a bit excessive? That’s just a cupboard, not a safe, that we want opened.”

She had a strategy: one hand ready to arm wrestle and the other ready to flash a boob to distract her opponent…

Heheheh… hilarious round, and great prizes, too!  Thumbs Up  Ever since I first played Monkey Island, I’m in love with everything “piraty”, whether it’s games, movies (haven’t seen Pirates yet, but how about Cutthroat Island? Grin ), twisted music videos or meme-ready children shows.


So many great captions this time - Sefir’s “Women and driving”, Intense’s “Extra in adventure game”, Tim’s “Fan art”, LK’s “You put your sword right in”, chrissie’s “Morris Dancer”, Iznogood’s “Spy”... just to name a few. Also, Sefir’s “Practice makes better” I found hilarious yet it didn’t won any awards, but the competition was fierce this time around. Great job Iznogood, and everybody!

The captions were outstanding this time around.  Thanks for putting this one together for us, Izno, and for the very clever prizes.  The pirate cartoons are priceless!  Grin

Thanks Iznogood for some very inspiring screenshots & woo hoo! I won a trip to Diz - Nee - Land!
But with so many wonderful captions to compete with these contests are definitely getting tougher! I’ve loved them all but Tim’s “Isn’t that cannon a bit excessive”, Intense Degree’s “That is not what I meant….”, Lady Kestrel’s “You put your sword right in…”, Diego’s “Where is my teddy bear” & Sefir’s electric buzzer were SOME of my favourites! Thanks also Izno for the lovely winners ‘ceremony’!  Laughing

Awesome round, everyone! Some extremely funny captions (again) this round. I very much enjoyed Sefir’s ‘summoning practice’, Intense’s ‘take down the sails’ and diego’s ‘left-handed’ Princess Bride reference-with-a-twist, but Lady Kestrel wins the round for me with her ‘anger management’, ‘hokey pokey’ and ‘run aground’.

And Iznogood, I loved the Monty Python’s Flying Circus intro for the prizes. Thumbs Up
And there were some very funny prizes as well. I particularly enjoyed the Arr2-D2, Grammar Pirate and Pirate Booty comics.
They remind me of a joke on Miranda Hart’s show:

Why are pirates called pirates?


Because they ARRRRRR! Grin

Thanks everybody and thanks for participating.
There was indeed a lot of other captions that was also prize material, and I *ahem* .. I know .. that the entirely fictional jury had a lot of trouble picking the winners.

diego - 09 August 2015 08:14 PM

(haven’t seen Pirates yet, but how about Cutthroat Island? Grin ).

You should, Walter Matthau is perfect in the role as an old grumpy pirate, but Cutthroat Island is also good.

Caption Contest #48 Carol Reed Mania

So, as the new girl I thought I’d just throw myself in something and this was a funny thread so here I am.
Let’s see how many mistakes I can make?  Tongue
I was about to put more pics in, but I was only allowed three and since I’m not used to upload to websites, I will settle for three then.

The games are Black Circle (2) and Blue Madonna. Enjoy!  Smile
