Hallo! I have been checking the games forum, and I couldn’t see any “caption contest”. I think that it would be fun to try something of the sort. In other forums I am a regular of, there is a thread with an ongoing caption contest, and it tends to be fun. The idea is to post a photo, ask for captions from people, and after a few days (3 or 4), the person who put the photo chooses a winner (with perhaps a couple of “honorary mentions”). The winner then posts a new photo, judges after a few days, and the cycle goes on. I think that it can be great fun! If you don’t mind, I would like to begin the contest by posting a photo. If there are enough replies, judgment can be expected this coming monday or so. [PHOTO IS HERE](http://gallery.starforge.co.uk/var/albums/random/peliqueiros.jpg) (I cannot post images that are directly visible in the forum; sorry about that. Just click on the link, and you’ll see it 🙂 ) Gentlebeings, start your engines! 🙂 ---

OK! Some days have passed, and it is judging time. I hope that the next contests will attract more entrants 😉 In any case, without further ado, here is my decision: I award the win to… _ **garygnu** _ For his wonderful entry: > [@garygnu](#): > > _Anonymous: The Musical!_ Congratulations, and take it away, garygnu! 🙂 P.S.: I would suggest that you simply keep posting in this thread, to avoid cluttering the board with several “caption contest” threads. If you cannot find a new photo to post, I can try and find a new one 🙂 ---

Well, I must have missed this the first time, in which case my entry would have been: > [@](#): > > You must spank her well, and after you are done with her, you may deal with her as you like… and then… spank me. > > And me! And me too! And me! > > Yes. Yes, you must give us all a good spanking.
