Should I restart the old caption contest?

[Nervous Ferret]

Well I remember back in the good old days before c-feds and everything the cool thing to do was to do captions. I know loopy headed it for a long time, and had a great system going, but then WWE switvhed it's server and all the pictures were lost, then it was kinda tossed around to gonmad but all the real good captioneers seemed to move onto bigger and better things. Loopy, Corky, El Santo, LC occasionally, Paul all the BIG names used to do it because I think it was a competition.

So I think we should restart the competition. I guess I'll use loopy's old rules with some possibly slight changes.

Captions are posted each week ect. then at the end of the month, me and my asscosiates will go through and pick out the best ones. Prob top 10 or so. A poll will be made and you can vote on the best caption of the month. Winner and nominnes for that matter will get a prize, not sure what, but it will be good.

So what do you say? I figger we could start off at SS and go from there. Restart the caption contest or no?

Actually, Corky was the one who used to run it.

But, yeah, do it. This might inspire me to do more than one set a month.

[Nervous Ferret]

oh my B. i used to confuse you guys all the time :o

[Savio]

Yeah but save the winning pic to your PC so it doesn't get F'ed up like last time.

corky did it you fool, loopy just used to do so many captions

he used to have "caption crew" in his title.. those were the days.

captions used to be such a big part of the wrestling forum :(

if ur gonna do it, stay dedicated to it, and do it properly. if you can do that, then why not

[V]

and i'm surprised you didn't put loose cannon in ur poll options

[Nervous Ferret]

FFS it's not 2004 anymore

[Nervous Ferret]

And this should give some new guys the chance to go up against the old "big guns". I remember caption crew from earlest TPWW days. :'(

[Gone Mad]

Wow, that's right. I was apart of the contest and the beautiful banner... ahh...


God, those times were horrible. :nono: If possible, bring it back and make it like it used to be.

[loopydate]

The captions in early-to-mid 2004 were great. The running gags, though repetitive, were always a good source of humor.

Just had a Caption Crew memory. Anyone remember when Corky, LC, and I swapped avatars and Custom Titles and posted like each other (me like LC, Corky like me, LC like Corky) for a couple of days?

[Nervous Ferret]

oh man, the invisible Stevie Richards. :'( That joke was (and still is) beaten to death so many times, and it is still funny as ever. And loopy your avatior, wasn't there a Violet Bearugaurd joke that went with that?

[loopydate]

Yeah. Lemme see if I can find it...

[Impact!]

I say do it nerF :y:

It was always good for a laugh

I really hate the new big pictures though, the small ones were great, but I guess this is something we have to deal with

[Nervous Ferret]

oh yeah ROFL there was that pic from WM20 where HHH was about to tap.

Benoit: TAP OUT TRIPLE H!
Triple H: NEVER! Why in the HELL would I job the gold to you cleanly at Mania and sell that weak move!? I AM THE GAME!
Benoit: Look Triple H. A spider on the mat right under your right hand!
Triple H: OMG KILL IT! KILL IT! I AM AFRAID OF SPIDERS! (Pounding the mat profusely)

ROFL
