Captions- New Picture Every Day!

I’ll put in a picture, you caption it!
Here are the nomination and seconding traditions:
When I have free time, we have a weekly poll of the best captions of the week. (When there is one, I have the link in my sig line.)

To nominate a picture, quote the caption and use a smiley that we have decided means “nominate,” such as :8:, :sg: , :tup: , :wave: , :lolup:, :rofl: , :usa: :heynow: . To make it easier on me, type in some of the caption next to the smiley. In order to keep the polls at the maximum 26, a nomination needs to be seconded, so if a caption was nominated, quote the caption and put a “seconded” smiley, i.e. :2: , :peace: , :toast: , :2pac: , :guitarwo: , :qunq: , :h5: , etc.

In other words, if you want to nominate Joe’s caption, when someone seconds it, the “quote” function only quotes what you said in the nomination; if you only put a nominate smiley, then someone seconds the nomination, the seconded post only quotes the nomination smiley and I can’t tell which caption it is for. Please put in a few words of the quote when you nominate and second so I know which one has been seconded.

OR we can make it easier and simply “like” the photo and a few days later I’ll tally up the most likes for caption of the day.

Here are some caption thread traditions:

Catherine the Great references: Check out her wikipedia page

A common story states that she died as a result of her voracious sexual appetite while attempting sexual intercourse with a stallion - the story holds that the harness broke and she was crushed. This is a completely untrue story.” But we in this thread believe it!

Umm . . . I don’t think these are the droids I’m looking for . . . :face_with_head_bandage:

Seems to me in this new format, using the “like” functionality might be a more efficient (and searchable) measure? We didn’t have this on the AO.

Not the droids we’re looking for

We can count the “like” feature (i.e., the heart button) as a nomination.

You could also use the “like” function to just like posts you want to nominate.

Hey, I have an idea, lets use the Like function instead of all those emoticons! The one with the most wins the day! :wink: @vorian_atreides
