Caption Contest Results

O HAI

Sorry about the lack of updates, work (and beer) have prevented me from doing things such as maintaining my online presence. We had a few more entries for the Caption Contest, so here are winners!

We'll start with a third runner-up. It's DayGlo Divine (why is that so hard to type with a liter of beer in my belly?), ref for the DC Rollergirls:

Second runner-up is Willy Callit:



First runner-up is Howie Swerve, ref for the Rollergirls of Central Kentucky (ROCK):

Ever notice that there is an inordinate number of refs who place in the caption contests? What are they really thinking as they are reffing us???

Congratulations to our winner, BotGirl from Tucson Roller Derby!!


So what have we learned? ICHLJ Caption Contest judges like bukkits, buttsecks, and invisible things. Keep that in mind for the next Caption Contest, coming your way in December. Perhaps saving all the cleverness for a monthly contest will help.

Congratulations to all the placing contestants! I will post a new contest the first week of December and will update ICHLJ tomorrow when it's not so hard to type (and hopefully without a raging hangover)...

Final (?) Caption Contest

OK, so here is the pic for what may be the last ICHLJ Caption Contest. :( It was taken by Holly GoHardly (http://www.flickr.com/photos/hollygohardly/) of Charm City's Mobtown Mods, and features Mibbs Breakin' Ribs (in blue, of the Night Terrors), Pistol Whip (in front) and Betty Beatdown (in back), both of the Speed Regime:


So now's the time to pull out your best captions and send them to icanhasleadjammer AT gmail DOT com. The deadline is Monday, November 5 at midnight Eastern time. The winners will be posted on Wednesday the 7th!

KTHXBAI

Caption Contest Results

Sorry for the delay...My internet access at home conked out yesterday and I just got it going again. Anyway, on to the results...

First runner-up comes from Ivan Thinking:


And the winner is Willy Callit:

Congratulations, Willy!

So...there is only one runner-up this time because those were the ONLY two entries. Ivan Thinking did provide a belated entry to the last contest:


I'll post another contest pic in a few minutes, but if this one doesn't get some more action, then I might have to declare the death of the caption contests. :(

Caption Contest #8

O HAI

Here is the picture for this week's caption contest. Taken by Robin Souma at the recent Gotham Girls-Rose City bout in NYC. The ref is Mr. RAWK of GGRD and the skater is Megahurtz of Rose City.

So what's the dilly-o here? Tell us through your caption; email it to icanhasleadjammer AT gmail DOT com or leave it in the comments by midnight (Eastern time) on Monday, October 29. I'll post the results on HALLOWEEN!

Good luck and have fun!

Caption Contest Res--well, not so much.

O HAI

So there were NO entries for this week's caption contest. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch.

Sad Rabbit iz sad.

O wells. Maybe peekchur was too hardz to capshun.

I had wanted to post some of the non-winners from the past caption contests, so this gives me the opportunity. So, for your perusal, here are some of the entries from the very first caption contest.


From Thrillhouse of the Garden State Rollergirls:

From Willy Callit:

From Roseanne Scarr, Cincinnati Rollergirls:


And finally, two from Trixie Timebomb of the Long Island Roller Rebels:



Maybe these will serve as some inspiration. I'll assume last week's pic was a lost cause. I have (what I think is) a good one for this week, so I'll post that in a bit.

Caption Contest #7

O HAI

Here is the picture for this week's caption contest. It was taken by BrendanMC (http://www.flickr.com/photos/brendanmc) at this past weekend's Gotham Girls vs. Rose City bout. I can't even begin to tell you who that is in that tangle, but if you know, let me know in the comments.

So get clever and send your best captions to icanhasleadjammer AT gmail DOT com or leave it in the comments. Hambone suggested this awesome tool for creating your own LOLlergirls, and it's super easy to use even if you're not blessed with Photoshop skillage. The deadline is midnight (Eastern time) on Sunday, October 21; results will be posted here next Wednesday.

BTW, if you have contest-worthy photos, send 'em in! I have many Gotham Girls pics because those are the ones that I know where to look for them, so if you want to see your league represented in a future caption contest, send me your pics!
