And just to make things interesting (and to make judging at four in the morning simpler), I'm going to point out a few things...



When I judge, I simply copy everyone's entries into Notepad. Links and pictures, as humorous (or in that one case of Dave's entry of Heidi and Mr. T, disturbing) as they may be, are not scored.
While multiple entries are allowed, I will say that usually the first entry is the one I laugh at more. That's usually a good sign.
With that said, the picture would be something like this...

Until 9:00 PM Friday...

[tkwetzel]

Kid in background: "Na na na na boo boo, you can't catch me."
Camera man: "Wait till these two are down and I'll put the death grip on you."

[tkwetzel]

Dave: "Imposter...I am the real JVN!"

[DCA Fan]

So then I stuck my tongue out like this....and I couldn't get it off the pole!!!

[Jay H 237]

Let's see who's the first one to catch a snowflake on thier tongue!

[Dorienne]

Dave: "How could you tell that girl I had an anger management problem!!!! HOW?!"
JVN: *choking, speaking rasply* "I...I swear I didn't!!"
Guy in back: "Hey Dave, are you sure John isn't telling the truth..?"

[GateRunner]

"...And here we are in the third round of 'My tongue is stuck to an invisable pole', with neither opponent backing down...."

[Eugenia Gabrielov]

"Are you sure this is a good way to send subliminal messages to my drive team during competition???"

[Bcahn836]

Hey lets see who can do the best Gene Simmons (http://www.drfeelgood.com.au/essential%20images/pics/Gene%20Simmons%20book.jpg) impression.

(i know the link won't be judged)

[Matt Attallah]

JVN - When I tried to kiss her like this all she did was slap me.

(Background) - No, your suppose to kiss her like this

(Right) - [Thinking]No wonder they can't get anything...

:D

[MissInformation]

"Being a coach is great! These kids copy me like monkees... scratch my head, and they'll scratch theirs, stick my tongue out and... see! See what I mean!"

[Tom Schindler]

"long distance relationships rarely work... this is a prime example"

[Kyle Love]

Baker:"kyle you could get one of these someday."(points at award)
Me: (thinks to myself) "Why do I want something baker won, I AM JVN!"

[Rich Wong]

John VN was caught revealing the secret greeting of UFH Brotherhood to Dave and Chris. Fortunately the secret greeting of UFH Sisterhood is still save. ;)

[Mike Schroeder]

another not so sucessful meeting of the "Mom said our faces would be stuck like that" club and those 3 arent only president they are also clients

[Amanda Morrison]

The mass panic that ensues when JVN accidentally lodges a grape up his nose.


(p.s. - 'that guy' in the background is the FIRST Encyclopedia, Chris Carnevale. I was actually standing next to him/behind Dave, but was not in the picture.)

[Travis Hoffman]

"...This is your brain on drugs."

[Andy Baker]

Dave: Aaaah! I hate losing FIRST trivia matches. That was a trick question!
John: Don't choke me, Chris beats everyone!

[dlavery]

JVN: Steel!

Dave: Aluminum!

JVN: Steel!!!

Dave: Aluminum!!!

Chris: Fiberglass!


(it's really funnier if you read this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=31204) first :) )

-dave

[CourtneyB]

Sooner or later i guess ill feel a snowflake hit my toungue.

[Wetzel]

There is always some joker in the back who just has to be in the picture...


Wetzel

[JVN]

"No! When your High Schoolers act up, you've gotta do it like this!"

[VGMasterShadow]

I guess they didn't like the liverwurst.

[Rich Wong]

JVN:
“So this bratty kid kept saying I’m wrong about the tranny design and shouted back at Chris and me, “SO WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE….. JOHN V-NEUN?!

So…. I shouted back at him, “YES I AM!”

So… then he turn around and stuck his tongue at us.

So…. Chris and me did THIS…..*raspberries* “ :eek:

[Kyle Love]

"What's cool about FIRST is that people know you, when you don't even know them....there's your sign!"

[Gary Dillard]

Uh, you know when I said "You can taste the excitement in the air", it was just a figure of speech.

[Joe Matt]

Dave is captivated by how John catches aluminium "snow flakes" with his tounge that try and fall into the robot durring drilling, yet he is ignorning the kid who tried this technique yesterday and got lock-jaw.

[Jessica Boucher]

Running out of things to compete about before the game is revealed, the boys stand on tippy-toe in an attempt to see who is taller.

[Jack Jones]

Yes. I’m aware that Viagra now comes in lozenge form. Let me guess. You two didn’t read about the possible side effects, did you?

...

[Kyle Love]

"how many zip ties do we need? 2000???? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[VGMasterShadow]

They're demonstrating the victory facial expression for kidnapping JVN.

[Elgin Clock]

Dave: You know John, I've tried all there is to be like you including saying that "I am JVN", but people aren't buying it.
Maybe... just maybe, If I got dental implants to match yours, they will believe "I AM JVN"!!

JVN: Ok?!?!?

Dave: So do me a favor, say ahhhhhh and show me them pearly whites!

JVN: Umm.. yeah.. sure... <shifty eyes> ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :p

[Kyle Love]

Rookie: "How bigs a regional?"
Me: "I would say a team meeting times o say 500-600...so like 3-6000 people"

[Astronouth7303]

They're drinkin' decaf tomarrow.

[dlavery]

Dave: ... so I treid to stop Big Mike by grabbing him like this, but it didn't stop him from hugging me...

JVN: ... and when he did, it made my tounge stick out this far!

Chris: When Big Mike squeezed me, my tounge stuck out THIS far!!!

[EddieMcD]

<entry>
D@ve: "T5 in effect"
</entry>

For those trying to figure this one out, T5 was the rule in the 1997 rulebook that allowed flipping, and D@ve was one of the engineers of the Rhode Warriors' flipper that year. On that robot is literally a small sign that says "T5 in effect". And it does look like D@ve is about to upend JVN (behold the glory that is goofy picturetaking :p), so, there's my caption.

[VGMasterShadow]

Lets play Simon says. Simon says, copy a Budweiser commercial.
Guy 1; WWWAAASSSSSSUUUPPP
Guy 2; WWWAAASSSSSSUUUPPP
Guy 3; WWWAAASSSSSSUUUPPP

[Kyle Love]

Chris: "What page are we on?"
Me: "...467 two pages down from Las Gurillas"

[greencactus3]

could you tighten my zipper for me?
no not that tight!!!

[Greg Needel]

proof JVN loves his groupies....now taking it to the next level showing off that they will imitate his every move.

[Travis Hoffman]

A short time ago in a galaxy not so far away...Dork Lord Dave uses his Force Grip power on JVN, which, instead of killing him, merely turns him into a mindless buffoon. One of Dave's earlier victims looks on. Darth Vader ain't got nothing on Dave - YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF THE DORK SIDE!

[Billfred]

Well, this is living proof once again that Kickoff needs to happen. And fast, too. (Maybe we should talk to Dean about putting that idea in the hopper.)

Meanwhile, first place goes to...
JVN:
“So this bratty kid kept saying I’m wrong about the tranny design and shouted back at Chris and me, “SO WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE….. JOHN V-NEUN?!

So…. I shouted back at him, “YES I AM!”

So… then he turn around and stuck his tongue at us.

So…. Chris and me did THIS…..*raspberries* “ Second place goes to...

Uh, you know when I said "You can taste the excitement in the air", it was just a figure of speech. Honorable mentions go to...

And the burn award this week is being shared by...


JVN - When I tried to kiss her like this all she did was slap me.

(Background) - No, your suppose to kiss her like this

(Right) - [Thinking]No wonder they can't get anything... and...

A short time ago in a galaxy not so far away...Dork Lord Dave uses his Force Grip power on JVN, which, instead of killing him, merely turns him into a mindless buffoon. One of Dave's earlier victims looks on. Darth Vader ain't got nothing on Dave - YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF THE DORK SIDE! So I figure 3 points divided by two is 1.5 each. (kidding, kidding...)

Now, looking at those numbers, I notice that Gary Dillard is within striking distance of the lead...if Heidi doesn't enter the contest next week. Having dealt with Gary in the past, I know he's a pretty bright and cunning guy. (Hence why Robot Rodeo ended at a reasonable hour.) Thus, in the interest of the integrity of the contest as it enters its 20th round, I present in all lack of seriousness...

Preventing anyone from entering the caption contest by means of any feat of engineering is prohibited. This rule shall not apply if both the victim and Billfred are laughing after the act has been committed. Until Sunday...

[Astronouth7303]

You know, considering I was gone for 3 months, I'm actually doing fairly well.
