Contest Information n junk
(a bunch of the stuff here is copied from the main thread in the RO subforum, pasted here for convenience)
Participants: This event is a team event, meaning the whole team enters this event. As a whole. Wholly. Everyone participates.
About: The Gaming Caption Contest is a game created by MessengerOfDreams back in 2009. The goal of the game is to give an appropriate and preferably funny caption to each of the 7 given screenshots.
Here, for the sake of the Runolympics, we'll use the following system to decide who the winner is: for each screenshot, Doram and Star king will rank the team captions from favourite to least favourite. The winner of the event will be the team with the most winning captions. In case of a tie, we'll look at the number of second place captions, and if that's a tie too, the third place captions and so on. It is similar to the process used in the real life Olympics to determinate the overall winner of the Olympics.

Rules:
- One caption per team for each picture (in the final submission list at the bottom of this post; we'll be voting on/discussing this as we go in the other thread).
- However, there is no minimum or maximum length for your captions. It could be a one-letter caption, a dialog or a whole backstory. Your choice.
- The caption can describe what happens before, during or after the picture. Once again, your choice.
- Swearing in the captions is okay, but try to avoid gore and sexual content.
- A team can skip pictures if they are out of ideas.
Posting Guidelines
For the sake of organization, let's set up a system for suggestions. Format your post as follows if you're submitting your ideas for captions:
Example 1 wrote:Screenshot #: My Caption
(please submit better captions than these)Example 2 wrote:Screenshot 2: He's running away and stuff
Screenshot 6: Look I'm doing stuff
Screenshot 6: I'm captioning the same screenshot twice because I have multiple ideas
Screenshot 7: Wheeee
Submit as many captions for as many of the pictures as you want. If you want to post multiple times, that's fine (in fact, it's encouraged, so that we know you updated your suggestions), but don't post several times in a row; instead, simply edit your last post.
If you're not submitting captions and simply wish to discuss the contest or ask questions, or vote for whose captions you want to see in our final entries, refer to the Discussion thread.
