You Are Games: Babylon Sticks Caption Contest VI


Comments (142) | Views (4,314)

You Are Games

ArtbegottiIt's You Are Games time again! And to add to the Awesome-Factor-O-Awesome, we've got another one of James Francis' Babylon Sticks cartoons for you to create a punchline for! And as if that weren't enough, we'll be giving the winning punchline submitter A PONY! (Made of diamonds!) (And yarn.)

bs-contest-thugris.jpgActually, I'm now being handed a piece of paper telling me that we don't actually have a diamond-and-yarn pony to give away, so I'll suggest this to you: Take a look at the cartoon to the right. Do any funny quips or bits of dialogue spring to mind as you view this unfinished comic? We want you to send them to us! Post your caption ideas as a comment below using your Casual Gameplay account (so we can contact you by the associated email address if you win). We'll peruse through everything you send us, and if yours gets picked to be the caption in the final version of the comic, you'll win a prize (which will likely have nothing to do with ponies, diamonds, or yarn)!

As usual, there are a few reminders we have to pass along to you. This is an all-ages site, so keep your entries clean and free of profanity. We also take a stronger liking to comments revolving around a gaming theme. Multiple entries are allowed. And now for some bullets:
  • All entries submitted to this contest become property of Casual Gameplay.
  • You must be at least 13 years of age or older to enter.
  • Void where prohibited.

We're setting the deadline for this competition at Monday, February 7th at 11:59 PM (GMT-5:00). That's not a lot of time, so get to work, and just hope you don't get writer's block!
