As the starter of this game, I don't think it's a big deal. (And I'm not just saying that because I won XD)
Here you go. Y'all got a week

Can we make a limit to how many captions a member can make? If everyone makes 3 or 4 captions, it can get a little hectic and I can imagine how much harder it would make it to choose a winner.

It's just a suggestion ;)

Speaking as a member here, not as a moderator.

As a player, often I can think of a better caption a few hours or a few days after my first idea(s). If there is a limit, I may probably wait and wait before posting. :hyo:

As a reader, I find this thread extremely amusing. If a member has many funny captions, why would he have to post only some of them? Especially since it's very possible that my favorite caption from this poster may not be the same one he thinks is the most amusing one.

As for choosing the winner, I always thought it was a good sign when the winner was hard to choose, because it meant that the round had been very good! It's not very serious anyway. :)

As long as we choose the winners based only upon 1 picture (or caption, in the other game), I see no objection to multiple submissions. As long as this current policy results in more enjoyment, what could be bad about it. I do realize that occasionally someone makes a winning caption that was obviously inspired by someone else's caption that lost, but the object is fun, winning is secondary to fun.

I declare Jeffbert as the winner.

And so Atom just stood there, forced to take his father's lecturing that he should not be walking around in public in just his shorts. Ironically however, Dr. Tenma had completely forgotten that it was in fact he who initially wanted Atom in nothing but shorts to begin with.

Period!!! End Data input mode!" :astro:

I guess so, I just thought it might be a little difficult to choose a winner, but I guess not. It was only a suggestion, so whatever ;)

That was also something else that I was thinking.
