HUMOR

Think you have a knack for making others laugh? Then this is the section for you!

There will be two events going on, alternating weeks--Pokemon Anime Theater 7000 and a PXFIRE Caption Contest.

The rules for PAT7K:


Ever thought the English dub of the Pokemon anime was a bit too cheesy? Here's your chance to make fun of it, from the beginning in Kanto to today's Alolan adventures!

If you'd like to participate:

--PM me for the room code to the stream. Due to the imitations of the streaming site I'm using, up to ten people can be in the room at any one time
--Once we have some watchers in the room, I'll start showing episodes of the show, starting from the very beginning. Your job is to provide funny quips in response to what is going on onscreen.
--When the episode is over, I will go through and score everyone's quips, and compile them into a leaderboard. Prizes will be given to the top three winners each week, and the top three overall. Then we start the process again with the next episode.

--Keep in mind that I'm looking for funny and creative jokes, not the same old memes we've all seen a million times. You may lose points if you post a groan-worthy or unfunny answer!
--There are secret bonuses for particularly good (or maybe particularly bad) quips!
--All quips must comply with PXR rules--if you can't post it on the boards proper, don't post it as a quip. Having said that, a little innuendo (no higher than a T for Teen) is okay.

How quips will be scored:

Sync: How well did the quip fit the action on screen? (25 points max)
Creativity: How creative was the quip? (25 points max)
Funny Factor: How funny was the quip? (50 points max)

The rules for the Caption Contest:


Each week, I will post a screenshot from the Pokemon anime here--your job is to write a funny caption that fits the picture. The top captions for each day will be compiled into a leaderboard, with the best overall scores and some special awards being given out at the end of the week!

Captions will be scored on creativity and funniness (50 points max each), plus some secret bonuses

Keep in mind:

If you wouldn't post it on the boards proper, don't post it here. A little innuendo is okay, but try to keep your captions T for Teen at the maximum.
Try to think outside the same old memes we've seen a million times--you can lose points for posting a particularly groan-worthy or unfunny answer
Think about what you believe is going on in the picture--you will score higher if you caption fits the picture!

We will be kicking things off with PAT7K for the first week, so don't be afraid to post here if you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions!

Okay, since nobody wanted to MST the Pokemon anime, let's try a little something different--come up with a funny caption to this picture:

I'll admit I just don't have the kind of quick wit for PAT7K. :P

As for the captions, are we only allowed one?

"I roll to bluff the Pokémon league into giving me the championship title." "All right, roll your d20." "Dang it a 3!" "Yeah sorry, Ash. You fail so badly at bluffing the heads of the Pokémon league that they decide to send you to summer school instead." "Noooooooo!!"

I just noticed I don't think this adds up to 100?

EmeraldSky
07-20-2017, 04:37 PM
So, the 100 points is divided among four participants, and not to each participant?

I will re-figure my math if that is the case.

Yeah it's 100 points in total.

EmeraldSky

Okay, give me a minute to re-figure my math, and I'll update the scoreboard accordingly.
