There are over ten replies now, but weren't by the 24-hour interval so I will give it until 48.

As always, my missus picked, and she chose the following:

#3 - Kittyman: So when is this supposed to turn into ketchup?
#2 - Admiral Gloval: This is not what I meant when I said surprise me.
#1 - (also) Admiral Gloval: If I come back in 24 hours. Will this still be waiting for me?

Her #1 was outside of the 48-hour limit, so it goes to the #2 which was within it... same person. Congrats and PM sent.

Also, there's a bit of an exploit hole (er... bus-sized) in the Beet's rule set. One could win every time by posting:

"1. Here is a caption.
2. Here is a caption.
...
10. Here is a caption."


... right away after a photo is posted. 😄

Mom (gently): "You're supposed to sit facing AWAY from the lid..."

BTW, Mr Kevvy, the rules state that judgement shall occur AFTER 24 hours, or (no later than) 48 if a quorum is not reached in the 24... I suggest a (re)-read of the rule summary at the start of the thread... your method would prevent that photo from getting more than 24 hours, but 24 hours would still be given!

And (err...) I think the Admiral is a guy...

@KWSN THHG: Ah you're right... don't know how I misread it that badly. Also on the topic of misreads, "her" referred to my missus, not the Admiral. :^)
Haven't thought of a caption yet I wouldn't want to hide later... lol.
