...live from Maine. (Curtis: Nice state.)
Here's the scores: Code:
MissInformation 156http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/pi...le&picid=10667 One small change, though. I'm staying pretty busy in Maine, and I don't want to hold the contest up because I don't have time to judge it. (Right now I'm doing this during my free period, which is an hour. Not too long.) In order to make sure I have time, the deadline is midnight Friday, instead of the usual Saturday. Go!! |

Golden Pharaoh: “This is not the King Tut Exhibition!
Wizards of Staten Island, I believe you misunderstand me- I said First Boy King not FIRST Robot Game.” |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Judge1: So uh....what talent does Rich Wong have again?
Judge2: It's not him....its the robots! Judge1: AH! That's cool!!!!! I want one! |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
In an effort to bring magical powers to their robot to beat the HOTBOT(though according to the rulebook it is strictly illegal) Team [name missing becuase I can't make out the team name] brought a mummy. Unfortuneatly the mummy was very angry after being taken from Egypt and quickly began cursing FIRSTers in the immediate area. The camera man was hit during this photo, thus explaining the shakeyness (is this the same camera man from contest #42?)

::Judges Thinking::
Its fun to watch Andy Baker piggy back ride John V Neun while Paul Copioli is the Human Player. But its more fun to see Gary Dillard piggy back ride Heidi (she is sweating) while Dave Lavery is the human player. |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
FIRSTers get reminded yet again why it's a bad idea to consume large quantities of Mountain Dew and coffee before attempting to photograph a match.

Pharoah: "Yes, I'm impressed with your machinery handling these tetras... but despite what you think, this is not how the pyramids were built..."

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Woman judge reads paper; " Lost Pharaoh must be returned to Egypt by Wed. as it is up for sale!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Pharaoh: Hey, what's that scissors lift doing over there? It should be on the field capping and building my pyramid!
Judge 1: (to Judge 2) Did you hear that? I don't think that dude read the manual very well. Judge 2: 'Course not. It wasn't written in ancient Egyptian, despite what the teams think. |

That's what you get for holding a regional in Las Vegas...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
It is a proven fact that most cases of spontaneous mummification occur while waiting for the winners of each Triple Play match to be announced. DON'T BECOME THE NEXT VICTIM! Simpler rules + fewer penalties = A mummy-free FIRST.
[BLAH] Hey, I didn't have access to any local team forum. I might as well kill two birds with one stone. :rolleyes: [/BLAH] |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Pharaoh: Curse of a thousand plagues! This software is taking so long to post a score I could have another pyramid built in less time! |

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Pharoah: "Oh Oh I want that one!! It can be my Queen, I will make her the best in all of the land of Egypt!"
Person-next-to-Pharoah: "Uh dude, you are a teenage boy in the 21st century, dressed as a Pharoah..." Pharoah: "Noooooo! I am a Pharoah! I know I am! I mean look at my goooold!" Person-next-to-Pharoah: "You mean your gold colored fabric?" Pharoah: ::begins to cry:: Meanwhile... The Judges watch as the first ever Princess of FIRST contest takes place. [not part: and you thought he wanted a robot! :p] |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Pharaoh: "That human cameraman is terrible! Replace him with one of my slave robots!
Advisor: "And what do we do with the human?" Pharaoh: "Something menial... make him stack my pyramids!" |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
The crowd can hardly contain its excitement while watching the exhilerating action of this year's autonomous mode.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Judge #1: Okay guys, everyone stay cool... I can't be sure, but I think they've caught on to our pyramid scheme...
Judge #2: Impossible... what makes you think so? Judge #1: Well, don't look now, but I think the guy behind us is a spy... |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
...though the scrolls were lost in the Alexandria fire, hints of Pharaoh's strange exploits come to us in hushed whispers like desert zephyrs. The legends speak of his fondness for combining Egyptian beer and camel racing. The strangest tells of an elixir fueled mad dash towards a mirage into which the Pharaoh simply disappeared...only to re-appear several days later outside a local Luxor watering hole. Here we have the first evidence as to the truth behind this bizarre tale. Apparently the Pharaoh stumbled into a worm-hole linked to a 2005 F.I.R.S.T competition. We can further corroborate this space-time adventure with a rash of pyramid building after his return. Oddly enough the 'glyphs of the time period refer to these pyramids as "tetras".

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Pharaoh:"This is the worst attempt at pyramids I have ever seen. They are too small and have holes in them! When I die even if I have to be put in these bad attempts at pyramids I hope I get lifted into the bright light like that guy over there (referring to the lift)."

King Tut, Boy King looks on in awe as non-humans move and stack pyramids. "If I had these wondrous machine, I could have built three times as many pyramids and I wouldn't have had to feed them."

Lady judge w/ white pants:
"I'll give the King Tut kid an 'A' for effort, but it he's got nuthin' on Steve Martin" AB |
Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
King Tut examines the game as he gets his master mathematicians to calculate the size of the tetra needed to cap one of his pyramids.

They told Pharaoh that his team was losing, but he refused to believe them. He was in de Nile.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #51
Alright, maybe I'm just being a softy, but I'm going to allow Dave and George's entries for two reasons:
a) Nobody, myself included, seems to remember a Friday deadline. b) I'm too busy to worry about such things. With that said, first place goes to... Quote:
