Last modified: 19 Mar 2010, 3:06:37 UTC Time to declare a winner.... Well, the rules state 48 hours, and while I understand the urge to keep things moving, this has been a pretty active one. In the spirit of the captioning, is it not acceptable to let it continue as long as it's being active? :-) I commonly don't get to each thread every 24 hours, and have missed chances to caption a few that were closed quite rapidly immediately after the minimum 10 captions. I think it's more fun if there's more insights. EDIT: That said, I guess I need to gladly say thanks for the win and find something to post! :-) Maybe this? ID: 980745 ·

As to the numbers, or time limits, Beets wrote the rule. After about 15-20 entries it gets a bit hard on the judge as well. If practical, I think at least one trip through the time zones ought be allowed so everyone has some kind of chance, but I can't change the rule. ID: 980783 ·
