CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

This one was before my time--my first computer was a 486.

The scores after the last round:

As always, the deadline is theoretically sorta kinda possibly roughly Saturday at midnight Eastern.

Go!

Red Guy: You wish your robot could walk on 2 feet
Green Guy: Why didnt we think of that?!?

2007 Paul: I love it here in Michigan, but with these Midwest summers, I feel like I don't get enough use out of these pool toys. Seems so wasteful. Maybe I should find a job down south somewhere...

Ken: You know, I don't like the control system. I don't like to carpeted field. I don't like when my opponent triples my score.
Paul: I'll suggest something to Dave, but you'll have to wait until 2009. I've been told the 2008 is already planned.

Just another day at the Used Game Elements store.

Ken: "Hey Paul - just look at all these red and blue ringers next to each other. This reminds me of my favorite color - purple. I sure do like purple."

Paul (distracted by a stray aluminum rivet on the floor): "Why don't you marry it, then......ooooh, a shiny!!!!!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Paul: Of course, these haven't been glazed yet - we'll do that when the HOT sign lights up.
Ken: I hope Dave brings some Jimmies...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Paul: This game is so fun. I wish we could play about a dozen times per event.

Ken: Yeah, and price the events 2-for-1 too.

Paul: You may be on to something. I'll call Gail and Walt. Do you have Francois' phone number?

Karthik (off photo): Hey guys, can I play too?

Paul and Ken: NO!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Ken to Paul: "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Paul: "I think so, but where are we going to get 2000 rivets?"
Ken: "Maybe we could get some from Team 1501."

Hmmm... Now ken, do you think these would work as bumpers?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Ken: You take the blue ringer - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want it to believe. You take the red ringer - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

Paul: Yay! Donuts! *starts eating the pool tubes*

Five minutes later...

Paul: Man, I don't feel so good...

Ken: That's because you're an idiot.

Green Guy: After-season pool party?

Red Guy: ...OOOOHH YEEEEAAAAHH...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Paul: Uhhg!

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #286
 

Paul: Now, Ken, let me get this straight. YOU were the one who suggested a water-slide game to the GDC, right? And then it snowed at the events back home, so we had an ice slide instead of a waterslide, right?

Ken: That's what happened.

Paul: So YOU get to tell the kids that all that training went for nothing and we can't do anything because both of our robots flipped over on entry to the pool, riiiight?

Ken: *gulp*

True heroes have a way of:
- adapting
- rising above seemingly insurmountable obstacles
- crossing the road to the other side if it means helping others
- being willing to stand as role models of integrity and intelligence in times where few are willing to or who have the credentials to
- keeping it real.

True Hall Of Famers.
