The 411 of the January Caption Contest (The Info)
« on: January 01, 2024, 08:31:25 AM »
Let's tune the radio and find us some music. But a couple of things before we start listening.

To find a list of all of the stations, go to the following url - https://rachelshaven.com/forum/index.php?topic=113246.msg864736#msg864736. The winner will be able to say if we tune the radio up or down the channel and how many spots. So if the winner says tune it up and three. The next station will be three stations up from the current one. Stations can be visited multiple times, each time it is visited a different song will be playing. Try to capture the song in your cap, commentator used to do this and it was big influence for this year of caps. The key thing is to have fun and be creative!!!

Let's do the tuning and we got 101.5 - KSOM - The Sound of Music and it is classical music. The song that is playing is...Tchaikovsky's - Waltz of The Flowers

The url for the video is  https://youtu.be/0rs9EoyUWuw



1- 12 entries - winner gets one cap
13-20 entries - winner gets two caps
21-30 entries - winner gets three caps and the runner-up gets one cap.

Yes the more entries, the more request caps you may get, on top of the award of course.



Rules:

The rules have changed from last month (see above for the new rule.)  There is an open discussion. I want it to stay a civil discussion too. Basically, instead of voting on 3 places, you will vote on only 2. First place will get something special in addition to the award. If a tie occurs a secret panel of judges will be contacted and the tie will be broken.

  • You can make up to 2 contest submissions. Please make a separate topic for each unique caption.
  • You can use up to as many panels you want. It is recommended to keep in around 3 panels of any pictures or drawings to tell your story.
  • Do NOT reuse the same picture for more than one caption.
  • Use any transformation method [magic, technology, chemical, genie etc.] or motivation [greed, envy, bad luck, fate, environment, punishment etc.] you want, just make sure it has to do with the theme.
  • Submit captions that you made yourself exclusively for the contest; don't re-post someone else's art or captions you've made for a trade. It should be all new and original.
  • All Captions must meet the site's caption guidelines and general rules.
  • Most important: Have fun!

Be creative and have fun.


Prizes:

A really cool award marker will be posted in your profile and you'll have the admiration of all the other caption artists. Check out last year's winners here!  Seriously, those markers are really cool! Also, if you're new to the Haven and you are looking for Gallery Access, enter the contest! You place first or second and along with your prize marker comes Gallery Access!



Post your submissions into this month's 'Contest' board no earlier than now. If you would like to post your submission anonymously, you may pm me and it will be taken care of. The last day to submit entries will be the 5th of February (when I roll out of bed). Voting will then open later that day if possible and be open for two weeks after polls are opened.
