SMBhq Caption Contest - 200 Point Marathon

Sean P Kelly · 07-19-2005, 02:46 PM

OK peeps, here is the new and improved Caption Contest. The old scoring system will return, but with a new twist.

Depending on when you post your caption, you will get more points if you win.

The scoring system is like so:
Within One Day - 10 Points
2-3 Days - 5 Points
4-6 Days - 2 Points
A Week Or More - 1 Point

This Caption Contest will go on until someone reaches 200 points (so try to get those captions in early)

So let's start things off:

That's a bad way to do things. I mean, just because somebody happens to be here on the right day they get twice as many points as they would have gotten if they posted a day later? What kind of gimmick is that? Geez.

And now, for the caption...

The Venus Plumber Trap tries to catch victims with its shoplike appearance, but upon entering it snaps closed, swallowing whoever remains inside.

Mario: Koopa, youse has displeased me...
Koopa: D-Don Mario! I swear, I'll have the money soon! Just give me more time.
Mario: One day, Koopa. Be careful not to anger me again. Ya gots da moichendise?
Koopa: Right here, sir. B-but, why do you want lipstick?
Mario: It's, uh, for my daughter.

Cloaked Dude · 07-19-2005, 05:27 PM

Mario: I would like some potions.
Koopa: Gotchya!
*sotre closes*
Mario: Now why did you close the store when I was in here?
Koopa: I have NO idea!
Toad (outside): You two better not be fighting there!
Mario: We're not! *punches koopa*

Most of the captions are done within the first day anyway, so what are you complaining about? This just encourages people to play, and it also prevents a single person from having a large lead that will never be beaten (since the points you get fluctuate).

Mario:I want a pony doll and a Captain Churro lunchbox and a monkey that will eat my brain and the complete works of Jay Resop(best book ever)and a cheeseburger.
Koopa:This is a shoe store...
Mario:But I want to eat the lizard!I swear!
Koopa:*loads rifle*

Who'da thought the gingerbread man would be such a jerk.

Unfortunately, Wario was forced to eat crow, along with a good deal of Mario's fist, two seconds later.

Mommy always says never to run with sharp objects...

***CaptHayfever*** · 07-20-2005, 11:07 AM

...the heck? Just 'cause I can't get online in the evening, I don't get to play? What's that all about?
Anyway:

The NEW Wario-steals-the-key playset! Key not included.

Panfan · 07-20-2005, 02:07 PM

Toad:Mario why are we chasing him when I've got a spare key?
Mario:Cause he already got a brand new pair of rollerskates and that's my brand new key!

Cloaked Dude · 07-20-2005, 03:56 PM

"Wario! No! Its a bomb!"

***Ace Mercury*** · 07-20-2005, 04:33 PM

^^^ Yeah, I know; should've at least waited 'til the end of the day. But, I am winning by ten points, so maybe I shouldn't complain. ^.^()

Antisocial · 07-20-2005, 05:13 PM

Big talk coming from someone with such stubby legs.

OcarinaMan · 07-31-2005, 08:22 PM
