[spare a CC vote?] They're not 3-D glassest -- they're 2-D glasses!

It's that time again, when I come to the lovely, helpful, generous TDN community with hat in hand, asking for caption contest votes. I made it into the longest caption contest ever (voting ends sometime in January), so it's going to be a long slog to a trophy.

 

I appreciate any votes, bumps, wishes, fist bumps, or groans at my terrible joke. You can vote every four hours. Please consider voting early and often. Thanks!

 

 

AAA: They're not 3-D glasses, they're 2-D glasses: Daily Dare glasses.

Thank you for your votes and support. I'm glad some of you appreciate the joke. There actually was a set-up by Lulu, but TNT cut the joke in half. Since the punchline's still there, I guess it still works.

 

Remember you can vote every four hours! Thanks again.

Thanks again for all the votes and support. Voting has slowed down a bit (hopefully for everyone).

 

I tried a bunch a long time ago, and rarely had any luck. And then I was inspired by Angeló and fullonparanoid's success recently and started trying, and I seem to have gotten in every single week that I've tried all of a sudden. I've been submitting a lot more captions each round, and I think that helps. Usually what TNT picks is what I consider one of my weaker jokes.

Voting is still going on. I'm in decent shape for a trophy, but the people behind me are speeding up, while my own progress seems to have stalled. Thanks again for all your support!

 

I think there was someone here at TDN who had two accepted in the same week; they asked for votes to go towards one of the captions. I can't remember if both ended up high enough for a trophy. If they did, I wonder if they got 2 prizes.

has it ever happened that more captions of one person had been selected for voting?

 

/raises hand

 

I had two captions accepted in round 1347 (and I got prizes for both) :D

My TDN topic on that round is HERE.

 

I've seen it happen a couple of times since, so it was not just a fluke...it does seem to be fairly rare, though.

 

I don't have a set number of entries I put in each week, I just enter whatever comes to mind whenever it comes to mind.

 

Good luck in this extra-long round (and good luck in all future rounds!)

 

Cheers!

 

:P

 

(I wish we could have multiple signatures here...please ignore mine if you are reading this post!)

Fullonparanoid, did you end up getting 2 prize notifications for that round? And two prizes, and the NP for both?

 

Ayup. :D

 

That was EARLY in my CC participation (only the 2nd CC I'd been chosen for) and I was THRILLED (though, tbh, I would STILL be thrilled to have 2 captions chosen!) /grin

 

I keep a list of my CC prizes...for those captions I got a Faerie Paint Brush and an Eventide Petpet Paint Brush.

 

My luck with CC prizes is all over the board...I have just about as many under 1000np Petpets as I do valuable Paint Brushes/Petpets. That is part of the fun of it...the total luck factor/gamble when it comes to the prize you get. It does not matter if you got Gold or Bronze...ALL CC prizes are pulled from the same pool and it is TOTALLY random.

 

Once you have placed in a prize tier it really is luck of the draw so far as what your prize will be. :D

 

Good luck...both in this round and in all future rounds!

 

Cheers!

 

:P
