It's actually the weekend today, so you know our contest weekend keeps on rolling--and the stakes are rising! If you've got the free time today, we have just the thing to keep you entertained on a cold afternoon; another contest. We will be running three more contests throughout the weekend, and a new one starts right now!

To give you guys a break from brain teasing and word jumbles, we offer you a caption contest. This weekend's special sale is on Anuman games, so take a look at the screencaps on the game pages from any of their games in our catalog and find the perfect caption. Draw on a speech bubble, or maybe make a motivational poster. Whatever you do, you'll have until 6.59 EST tomorrow (13.11.11) to come up with something witty or trenchant and send it to [url=mailto:contest@gog.com?subject=GOG.com 2011 Caption Contest]contest@gog.com[/url] with the subject line "GOG.com 2011 Caption Contest". We'll announce all of our contest winners on Wednesday, so keep tuned.

From all of the entries, we'll pick 3 winners and gift them 3 $5.99 or $9.99 games of their choice. The heat is on to make an impression in a good way, so warm up those pixel-slicing machines and show us what you can do.

Bonne chance, and be sure to check back tomorrow for our last two contests!

TheEnigmaticT: over 2,500
Ouch!
A 0.8% chance... you're bursting my bubble of winning a free game here! *sniffs*
Out of curiosity, are you allowed to reveal how many unique users have been visiting GOG during these two days?

I'm afraid I'm not particularly witty in the sense that would help me win this contest, but I made a (de)motivational poster and sent it in anyway. I hope it gets selected. :P

I wouldn't care to reveal exact numbers, but look at it this way: a few months ago we revealed that we're large enough where we see a million unique classic gaming fans a month. You can do the math from there and get a rough idea. ;)

Dang, missed this one. :(

Oh damn, just realised I was probably too late for this one, only just entered. Guess I forgot. Oh well was rather too predictable a caption anyway. Lets hope I win where it really matters.

Oh I missed this one. It'd have been much fun!

Yeah, this was probably my favorite contest task. :) The close second is cipher.

uchos: Sent mine.

I gimped a screenshot from one of the games pages and added my own caption.

I'll post it on the forums too when the contest is over. I hope other members will do it too, this one should be fun.
So.. is anyone interested in sharing their work for fun? :)

Mine is in attachment. Though, I am not so sure if I am classified, but I've invested too much work in it before TheEnigmaticT's clarification (like "use one screenshot") to change something after.

And mine is even simpler, but I used Sniper Elite, too...
@Lexor: Nice idea to combine the games to one story!

Nice to see people starting to share their handywork!

I picked the first screenshot from "Haegemonia Gold Edition" and decided to have a little fun with a Green Lantern Corps reference...

Thanks. :)
I made it before clarification of rules so it is "a little different", but it was fun to do! :D
