THE NEW RULE
If a caption winner has been chosen, and 24 hours pass without the winner posting a new picture, feel free to post a picture.  If a winner has not been chosen yet (ie; the game is still going), and 72 hours pass since the last caption post, with no word from the original picture poster, then feel free to jump in & post a new picture. 
Fifthed, agreeing on the rule. It'll make it easier to post in the thread. :D

Slightly annoying? More than slightly. I had to work all day and couldn't get back until now.

That's two hijacks in a row! I agree, cut it out.

I would have let Fnord have the win, anyway...

It figures ...

Back to the contest ...

A few moments earlier:

Leela: "Is it just me, or is the ship's front door about ten times smaller than it should be?"

Bender: "Nah, you're just about ten pounds bigger than you should be."

Has there been any announcement about the winners? Free Hot Meal hasn't posted in a while...

Yea, I've been pretty busy in the real world...lol   What winners are you talking about?


I mostly agree with the new rule, though I do feel a full 3 days between the posts is kinda excessive.  As you know, most posts are done in the first 10 hours a new pic is posted.  Then, random posts come in every now and then.  I do agree that more than 24 hours is warranted/needed, especially with a lot of us having other things we need to be doing than constantly checking to make sure we are not 24-houred.  However, I do believe whomever submitted the pic should be responsible to check in and declare a winner before every 3 days.  If you are that busy, then you should refrain from playing until you have the time.  Maybe 2 days between posts instead?  But that's just my opinion.  
If the argument is just you are too busy to check in every 24 hours and need more time, then we should extend the time you have to post a pic as well (since the same argument would apply and people would be getting upset they are losing their chance to post pics).  However, if it is just you hate having the game seemingly cut-off by people posting new pics after 24 hours have elapsed between pic captions, then I think 48 hours between captions would solve that problem effectively (everyone would have their posts in by then and the pic poster would have plenty of time to declare a winner).  We don't need to slow the game to a crawl by waiting every 3 days between captions, but I do agree more time (2 day rule) should be added.

So close yet so far...lol

Anyway...

Not to be pushy (as my suggestion was posted only about 24 hours ago), but I just want to get this topic finished before the next pic is posted so I know exactly what we are doing...are we going to wait 3 days between pic captions or 2 days?...I'll abide by either one but I just would like to know.  Thanks!

I think the main thing is that, mid-game, the rule has been extended. This has essentially been done to stop the recent trend for hijacking the thread before a winner has been declared. The truth is that most winners are unlikely to forget to announce a winner and the extension just gives them a chance to be away from PEEL for a bit before being hijacked. 48 hours would probably be enough but I think that it could be 72, 96 or even 120 hours and it wouldn't make a difference - all we're doing is giving a chance for a winner to be declared, hence restoring the game to its former friendly status.

ok...I see.  Just use judgment.  If things have been sitting for days and nothing is going on, then it is ok to post a new pic...but don't just post a new pic because it's been 24 hours when things have not been "dead" all that long (ie give the winner time to read everything and make a decision on his time).  I can live with that.

@seattlejohn01: I thought it was nice to see the judge's opinion.

@That:

Hermes: Ok Leela, You know what to do.
Leela: Yeah... About that, what was it again I should do?
Hermes: Your job is to handle all the complaints from customers.
Leela: No! I don't want to be customer management... It's so boring.
Hermes: Just fixing that badge, there! That doesn't look too bad on your tank top.
