Hey all,

Welcome to Creative Caption Craziness -- a fun new weekly forum game. Every Friday, I’ll post up a new pic for you to write your most creative caption for. You’ll have until 5:00pm Pacific to post it, then the judging will commence. The winner will receive the forum title of “Caption Champ [date]” and the Costume Code of his/her choice from one of the following:

  • Carnival of Shadows Harlequin
  • Freakshow Tank Boss
  • Paragon Police Department Hardsuit
  • Carnival of Shadows Ring Mistress
  • Knives of Artemis Lt.
  • Praetorian Clockwork

The winning entry will be re-posted in the thread (along with the author’s name), as well as in a thread I will create consisting ONLY of the winning entries as they are picked, so that people can see all the winners at a glance if they want to. It will be your chance to achieve some small measure of forum immortality!

Now just a few rules, to keep things civilized:

1) Reply in the official City of Heroes® forum (http://boards.cityofheroes.com/) thread created for each weekly Creative Caption Craziness” with your caption submission.

2) Your reply must contain a single caption to the picture posted in the thread. Entries with more than 1 caption will be disqualified.

3) Your submission must also contain the following statement. Please note that your submission will be disqualified if this statement is not present in your post:


If I am a winner, I permit NC Interactive, Inc. and NCsoft Europe Limited to use my name, likeness, photograph, hometown, and any comments that I may make about myself or this contest that I provide for advertising and promotional activities. I also certify that I am at least 13 years of age and am eligible to participate in this contest.

4) To enter the contest weekly, as of January 15, 2010, you must be 13 years of age or older. If a winner is under 18 or a minor in his or her state/province/country of residence, his or her parent or guardian must also sign any applicable releases and documentation.

5) Please note, only 1 (one) entry per forum account will be accepted. If you post a second time, you'll get disqualified, so make your one entry count!

6) Entries must conform to the Official City of Heroes Message Forum Rules and Guidelines.

7). If you win the City of Heroes® Creative Caption Craziness Contest one week, you are not eligible to do so again for the next 8 weeks. This is to allow other people the opportunity to win. Please be courteous to others and refrain from participating during the weeks you are not eligible to win.

"In a photo dated last week, employees of Pocket D's Ski Chalet warn patrons away from the Toboggan Run after a Stone Tank missed his jump and crashed through the course, rendering it unsafe even by super-powered standards. The Chalet will close for repairs with no announced reopening date."

Ironically, while protesting that the toboggan run was "too difficult" to achieve a top speed run, moments after this photograph was snapped, the two protesters pictured here accidentally took one step backwards, tumbled down the slope and achieved record times.

"An amateur photographer captured this picture atop the toboggan run in the Ski Chalet... police reports indicate that the two demonstrators were actually Serge of ICON fame and Arbiter Fabulous, protesting that such a poorly dressed instructor was actually a safety hazard to the heroes and villains using the toboggan run."

Protests at the Ski Chalet reached an all-time high when it was revealed that the best time was actually an approximation of height, rather than time, when Baby New Year got the shortest rating.

"Vacationers at the Pocket D Ski Chalet were surprised today to find that several Council Vampyrii had closed off access to the ski slopes in protest of the chalet's use of the bunny slope. The protesters were calling on the Chalet to end its exploitation of the endangered ski bunny and her natural habitat."

Citizens Against Sentient Snow Mistreatment (C.A.S.S.M.) shut down the Ski Chalet's competitions for hours after trucks were seen taking defeated frostlings, snow beasts, and winter lords to the popular seasonal destination, revealing the true origins of the course's slippery coating.

Use of the track began again when a mis-step sent the members of C.A.S.S.M. tumbling down the chasm below.

Several protesters shut down the chalet speed run today, claiming that DJ Zero utilizes illegal immigrants dressed as "ski bunnies". One protester's sign stated, "Lapine-Americans need work, too."

Knowing full well that the schedule permitted no advertising breaks the makers of a well known brewery took it upon themselves to promote the use of their product during the festivities! The president of the brewery could not be reached for comment due to a meeting with the Winter Lord and Snaptooth.
