Could you please just make it stranger? Stranger. Odder. Could be weirder. More bizarre. How about uncanny?

Okay, well, I've got like a million things going on, and I can't keep up with all of them. Unfortunately, despite popular demand, I have to discontinue (not cancel!!!) Caption Tightpants. It may be back someday, but not now, and not for a while. So to come full circle to where it all began, I chose last week's winner, like I used to when it all started. Thanks again to everyone who played and to everyone who read along. Browncoats are the best, and I wish you all the best! Of course, you can always play the OTHER SHINY CAPTION GAME, if you need a fix, as it has my stamp of hi-larious approval!

Congrats to Stick! The Final Caption 2 Tightpants winner!

Really Really tight pants : 15 credits
Suspenders : 4 credits
Brown Coat : 23 credits
toupee : 20 credits
Bar tab : 90 credits
Showing a hot
companion who she
really slept with : Priceless

See you in the Black!
TCM

Sad news, thanks for the thread TCM, they've been great.

Hope everything goes well.

More insane ramblings by the people who brought you beeeer milkshakes!

Thanks TCM!

I have really enjoyed reading the hilarious Browncoat responses over the many rounds of Caption Tightpants. You Rock!

De-lurking to apparently not play Caption Tightpants

Awwwwwwww, gorrammit, TCM, we'll miss this.

I de-lurked just to caption after who knows how long exercising iron self-control, and now I'm sorta woven in.

But it's been fun.

You picked one of my two favorites this time. The winner is a classic, but so was Mal thanking the barkeep for the roofy.

NOOOO!!

IT'S WASH ALL OVER AGAIN!!

Saddening news, TCM, but understandable, i suppose.

I wish you luck in whatever keeps you flying, and hopefully we shall see you around every now and then, perhaps with another round, or even just posting on mine, or somesuch.

I will play the role of the tailor, and keep the pants sewn, and the waist 2 inches too small. You have inspired me.
I mean, if not for you starting this game, i would not have had the idea of creating the spinoff!

Keep flying!

And good luck.

Important people don't do field work.

This hurts my feelings...it really does. Not because I didn't win, but, because, it was one of the few institutions that I actively participated around here and its going away.

I mean, there were others, but I can't go into that.

sigh...

Please, for the love of Pez...bring it back...

Thanks, Browncoats! You're all great!

Not gone forever, just gone for now. Captioning is one of my favorite pastimes. I just have alot on my plate right now, and add my frustrations with the webpolls, and I just gotta trim some fat off the meat.

But, like I said, the OTHER SHINY CAPTION GAME is totally worth playing for as long as Noel keeps it going.

Believe me, all my tragic space dementia is breaking my heart, but I wouldn't do this if I didn't feel I had to. Like I said, it is just a BIG DAMN BREAK. ;) Someday I'll fix the rip in Caption Tightpants and we'll have more!

Keep Flyin' folks! The Pants are tore up plenty, but they'll fly true... ;P

BWAH!

TCM, we're sorry to see this great game go away, but I understand the 'time-pressing' thing!

Thanks for giving me something fun to look forward to! This was great fun!

I'm glad all the effort has made this something worthwhile to so many folk.

I hope to do it again someday, and I think I honestly will, but just not now.

I honestly never expected so many people to enjoy it so much, it is really humbling.

Thanks again.

You know, I'd been wondering why I had seen anything about Caption Tightpants since I came back from Easter hols...

I'm sorry to hear that you've had to stop, TCM< but I can see why, what with all the organisation and stuff that you do (not to mention the graphics work that's been hampered by your PC going on the blitz...).

It was fun playing. Even more so when I actually won.

Thanks for the fun.

Yeah. Someday the Tightpants will return. Just not now. I'm actually doing some design work for the folks reviving the Ariel Ambulance ( http://www.adamwhiting.com/Firefly/ArielAmbulance ) from a desert graveyard to help pay for restorations, storage and travel to cons, so I think that will do more for the fandom long run.

I will, however have my PC back soon!

I'm glad Caption tightpants made the 'Verse a nicer place in some way for you. It really broke my heart to have to stop, but I'm not giving it up forever...just for now. Thanks again for playing, it just isn't a game without players. ;)
