Riff This! Official Photo Caption Contest!

[Jason Martian]

Either Bill doesn't care that he's seconds from death, or he's so damn happy to be catching a fish that he doesn't see the horrors behind him...

"Hey guys, I caught one! ...what? It's not that scary...

...oh."

Yeah... I was going for the kind of obliviously happy fishing approach.

That is a classic poster. Me want!!!!

This one or the ice fishing one?

THAT is AWESOME.

Thanks!

I swear you're using headshots we don't have...

Well yeah... I probably have a lot more at my disposal.

Well, he IS our full-time graphic designer

So what do you guys think? More caption contests in the future? I thought it was pretty fun.

Either way I'm asleep while they are going on!

[Action Batch]

I think it's a great idea.

OOPS, didn't realize the contest was already over. I'm still used to the old monstervision contest that lasted for a week.

That was my favourite too...

Perhaps the next one won't be held on the forum, but on the main site. That way I can control how many posts each user gets, etc. I'll look into it for a future game

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[Asbestos Bill]

Yeah, and just what are we going to tell the insurance company? Backed up into a shark while it was in mid-jump? We'd be laughed out of the city!

I think photo riffing is a better game than 20Q for a variety of reasons:

1) No repetition of questions through each game "Was this movie made after 2000?".. etc ..

2) There's no hassle in timing your question-post just right to win a competition with other posters to make your question the one that gets responded to. Everyone's riff of the photo simply gets viewed in order, up to the alloted time or other stopping point for the game.

3) Riffing photos fits with the theme of Rifftrax riffing movies, but 20Q is just 20Q.

4) Instead of just a game, it's also comedy everyone can enjoy in a more relaxed way and not get so worked up over.

In short: I recommend dropping 20Q in favor of Photo Riffing (you could even say it fits with the theme of "Change" that America is supposed to be going through with a new Pres. and all. Out with the old, in with the new! ).
