Congratulations to the winners!

Welcome to the first ever LBP PSP Caption Contest! The idea behind this is simple:


I post an in-game picture from LBP PSP. You add a caption. That's it.


.....and the first ever What Would Sackboy Say picture is:


http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/ac207/tross13/Drake_bawling.jpg




How do I enter?
Just save a copy of the photo above, add your caption or subtitle, and post it here. Whoever comes up with the best caption wins! Every two weeks a new picture will be posted and the fun begins all over again.



What should the caption be?
Anything really. Perhaps it's something Sackboy (or Sackgirl!) is thinking or saying. Your caption may be a public service message, or a dramatic movie poster title. Captions can be speech bubbles, signs, or even a short story if you like. The sky is the limit! (I don't need to remind you to keep it clean, do I?)



Wait, how the heck do I add captions?
There are many different ways. You can use just about any photo editing software there is to add subtitles, bubbles, boxes, whatever. Even Microsoft Paint will work and approximately everyone on Earth has access to that.

If you're feeling extra-fancy, however, I suggest you head over to Photobucket.com and grab yourself a free account (http://register.photobucket.com/). Upload the picture above, select "Edit", and go to the "Decorations" tab. You can do all kinds of cool stuff there, all for free!

Still having trouble? Don't be afraid to ask for help. We don't bite... hard.



The Prizes
Awards are given to the first, second, and third best captions as follows: First Place: 250 experience points and the option to serve as a judge in the next round contest!
Second Place: 100 experience points
Third Place: 50 experience points.
The LBPC forum experience system (vBExperience) is still missing in action, but not for long. In the meantime, I will keep a tally of the experience awarded. When the system (or equivalent) is back up and running, I'll pay up! I swear, I'll pay! No, not the kneecaps!!!



The Deadline
The deadline for this contest is 11:59pm MARCH 19TH, 2010 Greenwich Mean Time (http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/current-time.htm). Your entry must be received BEFORE MIDNIGHT GMT on the 19th or it will be considered late. Just think how embarassed Sackboy will be.



The Rules
You can submit up to two entries per round, although of course you can only win once per round.
Any and all types of image editing are allowed.
Participants cannot win twice in a row. This means that if you win this round, you can't win the next one. If you won the last one, you can't win this one. You can still participate of course, but just for fun.
Judges may also enter the contest and participate, but just for fun.
Read the disclaimer. Yes, we have a disclaimer. Read it or there will be NO SOUP FOR YOU!




The Disclaimer
By participating in this contest, you agree that you understand that the judges will make their decisions objectively, fairly, and in an unbiased manner. You also agree that there is no place for whining in an excellent contest such as this one, and any belly-aching or other distasteful behavior will result in public mockery and being pelted with soggy apricots. Finally, by participating you agree that the point of this whole thing, win or lose, is simply to have fun and enjoy yourself. This is, afterall, a video game.




The Judges
Forced Flash Taffey
Shutterbug jeffcu28




How did you think of this awesome idea?
I didn't. I am blatantly ripping off the long-running and excellent PS3 Caption Contest. The current (creator) curator jwwphotos has been kind enough to endorse this PSP-flavored version of the contest. Thanks jwwphotos, you rock!

Be sure to check out the current round of the PS3 Caption Contest (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=23236-The-Caption-Contest-ROUND-30) and upload a photo there too!

Finally, a big thanks to jeffcu28 for yet another awesome banner and for providing the inspiration to put together this whole thing.

Awesome stuff guys! I am so excited about all of these PSP competitions I just wanted to mention that I cannot view your original posts pics, but you reply from photobucket came up fine. Do I need to download something, or is this just one more thing that happens to be blocked by China (like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, etc...)?

(BTW, awesome caption Taffey )

Oh no! I've heard this about China. Hehe. Sorry about not being able to watch YouTube. That stinks. I guess you don't know then that JKthree made a video of Lost at Sea?

Anyways, I can see the pictures on the intro just fine, but I'm in the US, so I'm unsure why you can't view them. I believe most of the links are from photobucket. Is it just this thread you're having problems with, or all of them?

Thanks,
jeffcu28

EDIT: Actually, Taffey seems to be hosting some of the pictures from his own website. Perhaps you can only view pictures from photobucket? I'll ask Taffey about changing image hosts tomorrow to see if that fixes issues...

Hey!! Congrats to Taffey and jeffcu28 for starting another version of this contest in the PSP section! Just a quick reminder as they mentioned as well, there is a PS3 version of this contest (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=23236-The-Caption-Contest-ROUND-30), but you really don't need a PS3 to enter.. the pic was just made with a PS3. Heck.. you don't even need LBP to play either to be honest! So you are all more than welcome to check that contest out and enter as well !! So double the fun and we have deadlines on alternate weeks!

Good luck everyone! ...hey.. I can enter this one too.. muha hahaha ahah I might have to think one up!

Actually, Taffey seems to be hosting some of the pictures from his own website. Perhaps you can only view pictures from photobucket? I'll ask Taffey about changing image hosts tomorrow to see if that fixes issues...Yep, that's seemed to be the problem - I was hosting the original picture from my personal webspace. I haven't run into that particular issue before, but if you're having the issue there's bound to be others as well. I moved the original photo hosting over to Photobucket so you should be able to see it now. That reminds me, I should move jeffcu28's awesome banner too while I'm at it.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with jww - you're always awesome with this kind of thing. I am no match for your skillz!

Hey CyberSora,

CC told us that either a new vBExperience system will be up in the coming weeks, or we'll have to switch to a new currency based system compatible with this version of vBulletin. Either way, a virtual reward system will be available at a future date, so we'll be consolidating these prizes when one comes out, hopefully before this contests ends.

Thanks for the funny entry,

Sorry about the trouble Taffey No problem at all! It was a simple matter to move the picture hosting over to Photobucket. My personal webspace folder structure was getting pretty darned messy anyway, so this is actually much easier for me. Photobucket = LBP = win.

It's a bit small but you can still make out the words Yes, you absolutely can still enter! This is officially a console non-specific contest. In fact, we're also encouraging our PSP'ers here without PS3s to head over to jwwphoto's thread and submit entries there as well.

Thanks for the entry!

Ya, famouscustard pretty much made me crack! The only thing I found wierd was that Taffey never mentioned a misspell on the last word of the caption. Of course, that's what made the thing funnier! 2010-03-22 11:33:00

Yes, that's right. Dialogue can vary greatly depending on the worldwide theatre a misspelt word comes from. Manoeuvring through the ageing mediaeval encyclopaedia that is the English Language requires judgement lest a colourful arguement ensue.2010-03-22 16:20:00
