Sexual innuendo was pretty obvious for this, but Jockel's just makes me lulz.

Fuck me... I knew apple *affiliate link* arcade was a cheap bastard, but this takes the cake.

Why don't you get off your fat arse and get a job, then maybe you'll be able to pay for things without having to resort to this kind of pathetic shit.

If I was rancor I'd disqualify you anyway. This contest is supposed to be about the best caption, not who can bribe the most people to vote for their lame ass...

I'm going to claim the moral victory, since I had the lead before this contest got all mobbed up.

It's not like the villains will benefit from their illicit win, as we all know how Pootie Tang deals with dirty crooks:

Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

Yeah - this is exactly why I put in the clause about "I reserve the right to change the rules at any time."
C'mon - no paying for votes. There's really nothing I can do about it if you're doing some sneaky PM shit with other users but let's keep this clean and honest. This really is a contest about who had the best caption, and not who has the most friends or the ability to buy the most votes.

Oh come on now, it was a brilliant idea! ...and it did follow the original rules.

BTW I am overweight but I'm not that fat. ...and I do work. When I posted a lot of affiliate links I was primarily going to college and short on funds with only a part time job which barely provided enough to live on.

If I were you, I would stop pretending to be another fake "alias" elixir and just speak your mind without the excess of accounts.

EDIT: for the record, once I read that Rancor changed the rules I was going to take care of the other thread but it was already locked.

Hi, I voted for chempop because he put a lot of effort into his shops and they're very creative ideas to begin with.

You need a to do something about that clinical depression.
I thought casper's idea was both funny and completely legitimate since Rancor stated "there are no rules, anything goes."

Not so sure disqualification is possible after that kind of statement.

I'm not Paradigm, nor do I have dupe accounts anywhere.

You seem to make a fool out of yourself quite often. Bribing people to vote for you in order for you to win some contest? Did you really think that would fly?

The Art Book, in hopes that it has paper crafts. I don't think it does, but of I'm wrong... Oh booyyyyyy :mrgreen:

It was between that and the CD-Rom just because of obscurity and curiosity, plus it's bound to be worth the most by cave fetishists. I have no use though for digital Sound FX and images, I'm not about to taint my desktop with cave girls.

Sadly, the papercraft is in the Cave Shooting History book, not the Art book.

The CD-ROM is a DVD / CD set. The DVD contains a tour through the offices of Cave as well as interviews with staffers and a look at the day-to-day functions. It's also filled with promotional videos for almost all of CAVEs more recent games.
The CD is where all of the loli icons and desktop art is. :wink:

Received my grand-prize (Cave Shooting Artbook) and it is glorious!
Quite a treasure to behold, exceptional variety of character designs, cover art, and more, from nearly all of the titles you'd expect. This is my first piece of cave merchandise (outside of soundtracks bundled with LE's), and I can see why people go bananas for this stuff.

Big thanks to everyone who voted for me!!!
Props to all the contestants!!!!
Massive heaps of gratitude and appreciation to Rancor for throwing this contest!!!!!
I wanted to also thank all the OG gangsters, wannabe Homeboyz, my Bitches: Lakitchia and Julanda <kisses>, my pet gerbil: Twinkies (appologies for that duct-tape incident), and most of all: my Gold & Black flying thugs who invaded Japan on that vision-quest I had.... Word!
