The Sims Wiki:User Created Contest/Photo Caption Contest 2013
Hello Sims Wikians! Some of you may remember that a year ago, I did a week-long caption contest. The response to that contest was so positive, so I wanted to keep it going but I never got around to doing it again.
Well, wait no more - it's back!
Rules[edit source]
The rules are the same as last year's contest.
I'll add a photo to this page. You'll have a day to come up with and post a humorous or witty caption to the photo (remember to sign your caption). At the end of that day, I'll post the next days' photo and allow you all to vote on the caption you like most from the previous day. The winner of each day will get an award on their user page, and their photo caption will be entered in a finalists vote for the end of the week. If there are any ties, I'll cast the deciding vote (therefore, I won't be participating). Voting will be done by use of the poll feature (I'm not worried about strict scientific accuracy).
You must be registered to place a caption. However, you do not need to be registered to vote on the captions. Captions need to be appropriate and follow the rules. Only one caption per user per photo please; if you want to change your caption, you may up until the end of the day.
Since we're starting today late, the captions for this image won't be due until October 19th (at 00:00 UTC).
October 17/18[edit source]
Without further ado, here's the first photo!

Wow, I'm really bad at running this contest! I completely forgot to update it last night. Well, better late than never! Please don't hesitate to submit a caption! Remember, you can change it up until the end of the day tomorrow (end of Oct 24th).
In honor of EA announcing the new projected release date of TS4, I've decided to use this image for captions today! -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 18:26, October 23, 2013 (UTC)

Voting[edit source]
October 25/26[edit source]
Last year's contest featured six images, so I've decided to follow that pattern again. That means this image is the 5th image, and is the second-to-last one to be featured in this contest. After the sixth image is captioned and voted on, we'll proceed to selecting the overall winner for the contest!
Today's image was suggested by Chunkyheels; if you have a good image for the contest, link it to me on my talk page! -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 00:08, October 25, 2013 (UTC)
