I'm giving away three copies of the ship as part of a pay it forward scam I hope will continue in this lovely community. So here's the rules:
This challenge will be to create a LOL X picture, where X is equal to anything related to our community or the games we play. The basic formula for a lol picture is picture plus funny caption equals lulz, but I am giving you plenty of wiggle room to run with the idea in any direction you want. To get yourself started think about your favorite class or mod characters. Screenshots will be a good place to start but you can also use gary's mod and real life pictures. While the focus will be on video game submissions if you can make something related to the community that makes us laugh it is more than welcome.
The judging will be done by myself, Vandamn Guy and Scotty G. Comparisons to reality TV judges to follow. Grading will be based on effort, cleverness and how well your submission is in the spirit of the competition (ie how well does it relate to the community or the games we play). One submission per person.
Also effort is key, if you just do a google search and slap a caption on it it will have to be damn funny to compete against something that took a lot more time and patience. And plagiarism will have your submission thrown out immediately (so no submitting kor-koolaid). Also anything you've made before and posted to the board is not valid, as it wouldn't be fair to others.
Here is a separate thread for submissions only, so feel free to discuss anything you aren't clear on here.
Submissions must be in by 6/29. We will then judge and give out the steam codes to the winners (assuming I get them in by then, I have no idea how long shipping will take)
