Guy 1 - "Quick lets change the score while Billfred isn't looking"
Guy 2- " Nooo, lets see if we can find Billfreds next caption contest picture."
Guy 1- " Great idea, Muwhaaaa"
Billfred- " So how is that score coming?"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #42
 
While David Kelly looks over the scores, Billfred has spotted the infamous photoshopper Heidi Foster and watches her at all times. He must try not to do anything stupid that Heidi can get a picture of so he can keep his dignity.

Billfred 24-04-2005 12:20

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #42
 
<obviously not an entry>

Actually, Heidi got a picture of me at the webhug, supposedly for photoshopping. Of course, how much photoshopping can one do when you've got safety glasses on?

Billfred: I'm going to stand here and watch Dave stand on his head while he's introducing the teams, you keep the scores going

Guy 1: Here! Put this team in 1st and this one in last! He won't notice!

Guy 2: Yea, he's to busy staring at Dave

Billfred: *2 minutes later* Who changed the scores?

Guy 1 and Guy 2: *snickering behind his back*

Joe Matt 24-04-2005 20:53

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #42
 
The truth is out: The only reason why JosephM won the last Caption Contest was because Billfred didn't judget it, but David "Apple Switcher" Kelley.

Uh-oh! It appears the Championship Event's self-appointed Odoriferous Emanations Inspector, David Kelly, has detected a Level 5 O.E. wafting from the underarms of one William Leverette, Jr. Further evidence of this malodorous stench is provided by the cameraman, who obviously cannot focus clearly due to the stank permeating the immediate area. We all know what this means, boys and girls! Billfred gets to take a B.O. Timeout in the FIRST Defunkification Chamber - sponsored by Degree for Men, the official antiperspirant of FIRST.

We salute you, Mr. Odoriferous Emanations Inspector, for without your ever-vigilant nostrils, hundreds of nasally-offended spectators would make this FIRST Championship Event their LAST.

I recommend, unless you really want to find out, that you not ask the question. ;)

Guy 1: Hey! Why is Billfred's new caption thread on the scoring systems computer?

Guy 2: *Goes and looks at the picture for it* AHHH! Looks like we should get out of here fast!

Guy 1: Why?!? *Looks at the picture* Lets go now!

Guy 1 and 2: *Runs to a car and drives off*

Billfred: *Giggles to self while taking down the phony thread and puts his favorite team to 1st place, then turns to the camera* Now students, THAT is how you get your team, or your favorite team to 1st place

Here we see a measure of the success of the Real Time Scoring System for this year's game. The final match on Curie Friday ended at 6:15 PM, and Billfred is still updating the real time score at 9:37 PM.

Now I know why I don't post more pictures of myself on this thread. :)

And after some deliberation, I think it's time to add a fifth rule to the caption contest...

Quote:

With that said, first place goes to...

(I feel I have to put a note in here. First off, you can't update the RTS after the match with the Hatch system. The handhelds still work, but the screen doesn't update--meaning that if you miss a goal that makes a row, you're up the proverbial creek until the video guy pulls it down. Second, I was sleeping like a baby at 9:37 PM on Friday night.)

Not according to the time stamp on the photograph - are you saying that photos in the caption contest are not entirely accurate? I thought this contest was on the level. I feel so used! How can I come up with another clever and witty caption when in the back of my mind I'll be questioning the validity of each photo?

<suddenly remembers the power of negative infinity>

Oh, sorry Billfred, my bad.

The picture is for real. The timestamp is just off--you'd want to pester Ryan to get his clock right on his camera. :)

(By the way, Gary, I read signatures. Double :) )
