As an aside to the normal Caption Season thinking of spicing things up somewhat. Well, aim is to get more posters playing REGULARLY.
We've had the Fame Academy, X Factor, Pop Idol - well what I'm thinking is CAPTION COLLEGE.
Haven't deceided the final format but will work along the following lines. It will be open to everyone (except certai n posters / league, cup winners etc.) and there will be 3 pics a week posted up.
A panel of judges (I'll be one) - looking for volunteers for the other 2, but Gresley would make a great Louis Walsh; and basically the entrants would post up their captions and each of the 3 (maybe 4) judges would mark them. Bottom caption 2 points, next one 3 points up to the winner. Each of the other judge would PM their scores to me and I will collate and post them.
Each week the bottom 2 are 'booted' until we are left with 5 captioners. At this point the audience will be asked to mark them - similar to the event Argyle Chick won!
What do people reckon!!!

Sounds like fun. I am away over Christmas, but can usually get a bit of time on line at the in-laws place - up for helping out Ro - nice to take part too! Thought the games when we voted before went well - arguably wouldn't need a panel - and then you could enter too?

Too rusty mate - besides by taking the likes of Gresley, Sterland and maybe Dan out of the equation could make it more attractive to potential (and current) players.
Besides if say 20 people entered the competition at the outset - to set up the poll for the 20 entrants and then do the results would be something along the lines of nightmarish. It was a lengthy process just doing it with 6 posters for the Super Cup!

That ia a cracking idea Ro! It really is! You, Gres and possibly Ster or DTR as judges too....could be quite interesting. This is the kind of thing that will appeal to me.....used to caption quite a bit but wasn't up there with the elite crew. But i feel refreshed and ready to give it another go. Count me IN! |
