    Good. We need this. However, shouldn't we just continue on from the old contest? I'm sure apenpaap wouldn't care in the slightest.

    There are supposed to be three pictures, but for some reason the third one isn't showing... I'll try to fix that...

    Edit: Fixed.

    How about now?

    PS: And why the hell aren't people participating more? Are the captions sucky?

    Don't worry about it. I just think that there isn't quite as much traffic through the ToMI boards as there used to be. They'll come, sooner or later.

    I, myself, am just trying to think up a decent caption. I'll post it as soon as I come up with one.

    Elaine: Allow me to introduce myself - Elaine Marley Threepwood, Mighty Giant Slayer™. Any last words?
    Guybrush: You used DeSinge's helmet again, didn't you?
    Elaine: Er... Maybe.

    Guybrush: You will all pay for this later, believe me!
    Otis: Yeah? What are you going to do, shoot the cannon and sink the ship?
    Carla: Haha, good one!
    Roger, the evil demonic talking skull tatoo: Haw haw!
    Guybrush, to himself: You actually gave me a pretty good idea right now.

    Rottingham: I am doomed, am I not?
    Louse who sounds suspiciously like Eric Idle: Oh, cheer up, Rene, you know what they say...
    Lice: Always look on the bright side of your lice! *Whistle*

    Yeah, I know... The pictures aren't exactly the best. I apologise about that. I will try harder for next one.

    If there's ever a next one... (evil laugh)

    ^I still have a couple of pictures I was planning to use at some point in the caption contest somewhere in my computer. I can send them to you if you want (and if I can find them).

    Or we can rename this thread "The Caption Contest With Far Too Many Pictures".

    Or you could hold the next caption contest yourself. I'm sure no-one would object to the creator of the contest holding a round.

    Whee! Fun happy slide! Dang, I've got grease on my ass. Man is Elaine going to be P.O.ed.

    Elaine: You're seriously planning to use that rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle as your weapon?
    Guybrush: Their weapon usually falls out of their hands when they laugh, which gives me enough time to run away.
    Elaine: *facepalm* People put their hands up when they see me coming. *eyes up shot*
    Guybrush: I am rubber, you ar gl- OWW! That could have killed me.
    Elaine: I was aiming for the live chicken, not the dead one.

    If I cook up that weird recipe I found, with any luck it might cause indigestion. That'll teach 'em.

    The comb teeth were in surprisingly good shape, considering what Haggis normally used his comb for.

    My entry, for what it's worth. Am I too late? Have I missed the boat?
