Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #20

Alright, it's time to announce the winners of this shin-dig. Judging was pretty hard, forcing me to go back to originality and dry humor (what people accuse me of judging on). First place goes to...

Keep daydreamin' about Mars with that look of carefree bliss on your face, but the Shriners are comin' after you, buddy. You're about to have an unfortunate accident, and I don't want to hear later how you slid under a truck or some other such nonsense. The truth is, a couple of hard hittin' fez-wearin' clown po-pos are hot on your tail in those cute mini patrol cars they drive in parades. You can't see them, but oh yeah, they're right behind you, just out of range of this picture, and they're about to take you down. You can mess with the Elks, you can even mess with the Knights of Columbus, but NO ONE messes with the Shriners!

Second place goes to...

And, instead of a burn award this week, I'm going to beat FIRST to the punch with the first awarding of the Safety Award, good for three points (and counted in the stats as the burn award, just because I'm too lazy to start a new column):

Now, this changes the scores a smidge. It ought to look something like this (apologies on how crummy it looks--this was my first stab at doing the scores in OpenOffice):

And yes, I am working on the Stats-O-Rama. I'll post that in a few.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #20

I should point out that those scores are slightly wrong. I mistyped Genia's score--she has 18 points.

In fact, I noticed quite a few discrepancies as I went through the data--I wound up using a spreadsheet formula to figure out how many one-point entries a person had. Sometimes, that gave me negative numbers. (I went back and fixed them--who knew that Lil' Lavery had 15 points?)

So if you see an error, or you think I'm wrong, please PM me. I'm happy to fix any errors that come up--if I know they're errors.

However, I know you'll still have plenty of fun with these. Especially the average score column.

Enjoy!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #20

Anybody teaching How-to-make-Billfred-laugh classes? I would of thought that I would do better than 1.3 points a week!

(Then again, I think I missed 5 weeks)

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #20

The five weeks is irrelevant. If I did my math right (and that's a key word, if), 1.3 should be you average score for all of the caption contests you have entered.

You know, I really should post the next one...this is what I get for waiting until I get back to my dorm!
