The DTF Member Memes Caption game!
« on: August 14, 2011, 12:33:58 PM »
I hope we can have some clean fun with this.  Rules will be similar to the caption the picture game, except that all pictures will be blank memes of actual DTF members.  Whoever posts the winning caption makes the next meme - or if you need I or someone can make it from a picture of your choosing.  I have a blank template here: https://filebox.vt.edu/users/mrouser/DTFmemes/template.jpg  It is easy to swap out colors.  Winning captions will be put on the picture and kept grouped together on a separate webpage I will maintain for prosperities sake.

Quick rules rundown:
1. Limit 5 captions per person per round.  Captions should be typed in the reply window, with two blank lines marking what goes above the picture and what goes below the picture.  No more than 2 lines above and 2 lines below face.  Don't put it in a picture and post it.  It will make the load times for the page long (and a waste of space for the hosting site).  If there are good second place ones I may archive them as well.

2. Person should be an active DTF member.

3. It's all in good fun.  Keep it clean, but a friendly jabs are more than welcome (no Icy ones, I don't want the thread locked).

4. The more rediculous the picture, the better.

5. Not a rule as much as it is a suggestion, but after your first win you should post a pic of yourself.

6. 24 hours once a pic is posted.  If you need me to make a meme, PM me a link to the picture you want used, if more than one person is in it tell me which ones are needed.
Again, I'll make them as needed, and I'll put the winning caption on the meme and keep them on a webpage.

With all that out of the way, I'll go first.  Have fun with me (I couldn't find the original pic of me, so it's a blow up from the photoshop thread):

Don't put text on the pics, just put your caption here so the thread doesn't take forever to load.

Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.

Oh.  This is a competition.  I guess my earlier post was completely in the wrong context.  Oh well.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I was trying to keep the playing field even.  Not everyone wants to take the time to use a generator, or host the picture.

Also, some people can't see pictures on their mobile phones, so they can't see captions

All that plus like DTVT said in the OP it'll take way longer for these pages to load if every post has a picture to load(anyone who's been to the hysterical gif thread knows this all too well.) This was supposed to be the format as requested by DTVT:

Quote
Captions should be typed in the reply window, with two blank lines marking what goes above the picture and what goes below the picture.  No more than 2 lines above and 2 lines below face.

I can understand the validity of those, but if you don't re-post the picture and put a caption on the picture, then it doesn't feel like we're really creating memes.  Plus, they're just not as funny when all you have is text, and then you have to scroll back up and look at the picture.  The Random Caption Game thread doesn't lag too much that I notice, and a lot of posts there re-post the original picture.  I don't know -- this seems like a silly dispute to be having.  Can we just let people do it however they want to do it?
