Now, here's the story. For now, I am pegging the deadline for build season at this Saturday at Midnight, with judging and the next contest coming the morning after. However, I am considering a change to the schedule to allow the deadline for this contest to become next Saturday at midnight, since I know some folks are slightly crazy this time of year. I can't remember why, though.

So here's the deal--along with your entry, post whether you want to make caption contests during build season last one week or two. I will survey the responses Friday after noon Eastern, and post the decision shortly after.

After build season, it's back to normal. Or as normal as this caption contest ever gets.

Here's the picture:

Enjoy!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #27
 
My opinion: you have the (mostly) solid schedule going for you the past 6 months. You may as well keep it the way it is through build season.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #27
 
I agree with Eddie. Most of us are used to the current schedule.

OK, now for my entry:

Team Update #16

In response to complaints FIRST received about not having the human players involved in the matches enough, FIRST will now require each human player to hold up a beacon with their teams color for the entire duration of the match. FIRST regrets any inconvenience this may cause any teams and/or human players.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #27
 
Opinion. Keep it to one week. That way things get moving and people remember to check.

Wipe that smile off your face. The red light proves that you are lieing. Now for the last time did you eat that last Krispy Kream?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #27
 
Finally! A team has figured out how to combine the robt and human player into one!

Wasn't there something in the rule book in 2003 about taking care of the dome lights?

I know - I'll put it on our robot and bathe our opponents in his fiery red illumination! All will crumble before us under the weight of Sauron's visage!"

Later that month at the Mordor Regional, the qualifying match list is released.....

I'm for the every week thing I suppose.

"LOOK in to the light Mr. C….

LOOK in to the light….

You will DO as I ask…

You WILL allow meeeeee to join Team 25…

You will NOT make me go for pizza and soda…

You WILL allow me to drive the BOT…

You will keep Big Mike from AWAY from me…

You will obey me ... YOU will obey....."

Kid; Just because something is shiny and glows a lot doesn't mean it's edible. Now if you excuse me, I'm off on my lunch break. *chews on red light siren* What are you looking at? It's high in fiber.

Alright, alright, I'm judging it already. (And to whoever sent the brownies--I'm not touching them.)

By the way, congratulations to Dave Lavery for being the recipient of the...

I AM (slightly funnier than) JOHN V-NEUN AWARD

at the 2005 Kickoff. (I guess I should pat myself on the back for being able to haul a frame with glass in it from Columbia to Manchester without breaking it--and this is including using Independence Air's check-your-bag-ten-feet-from-the-plane-and-pick-it-up-there-when-you-land thing, since my bag apparently doesn't fit under their seats.)

But enough blabbering. First place goes to...
