Contest for PAXEast Swag: Caption Competition
Alright, so you heard about the swag, and here’s the contest to go with it. We have selected a few ripe photos for a caption competition! The rules are simple: funniest or best caption wins. Post your entries in the comments to this post (for help posting images click here). You only need to pick one photo to caption, but the more entries the better. Be sure you’re logged in when you comment so we can verify your email. Light photoshopping is allowed, but it must be clear which photo you’re using.
The grand prize is a big swag bag full of awesome stuff and second prize is a medium sized bag of stuff. We also have three runner up prizes of two or three items of swag.
The last day of entries will in one week (Friday, 9th April). So what are you waiting for? Get captioning!

I refuse to compete in this competition on the grounds that the readers deserve the swag, but I can’t resist making a good caption. UNOFFICIAL ENTRY.
Not too good, and I used NG font without caps on one of them, but I can’t be bothered to change it now.
Oops
I don’t like not being able to edit comments on here :(
@Matttbh: haha!
also, I’m experimenting with giving a 30 min window for people to edit their posts. Sorry it’s not retro-active, but should make things easier for people in future :)
@wardrox: YAY!
Here are some more…
I will post more when I come up with them.
I was going to put X-wing fighters that look like your faces and junk but well, read:
[11:47] Quick Question about the PAXEast Swag contest. It says “light photoshopping is allowed”, could you elaborate on that?
[11:47] well, have a look at the current entries
[11:47] nothing more than that
[11:47] Damn it
[11:48] well, unless it’s awesome
[11:48] but taking heads off and putting them on other photos is too far
[11:48] What about cutting them out and putting them in different “scenes”?
[11:50] probably too much
[11:50] Oh well
[11:50] it’s a caption competition not a photoshop competition after all
[11:50] Good point
[11:50] you’re welcome to enter, but it may not win
[11:51] meh I’ll finish what I’m doing now(half assed of course) then.
[11:51] lol
[11:51] sounds like a plan
[11:51] An awesome plan.
[11:53] But take note: The crappy cut outs are crappy because you said “It’s a caption competition”.
[11:53] lol, notes taken
[11:54] Good, at least I don’t have to take responsibility of that factor.
If i win can i get some MAFIA 2 stuff if there is any avalible :) thanks
“the more entries the better” – I bet you regret that.
The ‘edit’ button is sadly quite temperamental so I have no idea which versions of images peoples are seeing.
If by chance I win, Id love one the pokemon bags.
If I think of more I’ll post em later. Love the podcast and the site keep up the good work
I lol’d. Keep ‘em coming people :D
This is a remarkably good way to procrastinate studying! :)
I couldn’t resist…
@Matttbh: Ahahahaahah A+ this one.
As the staring competition begins, team NG are confident of victory
Hey guys. How do you post pictures up on the site? In any case, i’ll add my captions on to the pile:
Photo 1 caption: Wardrox and Wex combining the vibration of PS3 Move with Gamecrush…
Photo 4 caption:
Dan: “So then you curl your finger and rub towards yourself..”
Wex: “Oh no i much prefer using my thumb and stroking downwards…oh hey guys! We’re talking about..removing earwax..yes…”
