A Thousand Bucks!, Caption Contest Doubles AwardPosted by Amanda Chapel
You got it: We've decided to double the award. We're raising the prize to a thousand bucks! Sponsored by Waggener Edstrom Worldwide – one of the largest PR firms in the world and arguably the smartest, coolest and bestest of the mostest - the caption contest was designed as a fun way for communications and marketing professionals to demonstrate the essential ingredient in this business, i.e. creativity. Pictured right is this month's photo. To enter, simply write a caption 40 words or less and email it along with your contact info to captions@strumpette.com. That's it! On the 21st of the month, our panel of seven judges will select a winner and send you the dough. To learn more about the contest and this month's photo, visit us at http://strumpette.com/creative/. For the official contest rules, go to http://strumpette.com/creative/index.php?x=about . Good luck. - Amanda Bookmark This

I hate to sound really, well, really Web 1.0, but I can't seem to find the pages here that show previous contest winners, the 10 best runners-up, all that good stuff.
Or do I have to make a formal Strumpette Access to Information request to get this info? - P
Peter,
In the siderbar under "Topic Categories, see "Contests." (here: http://tinyurl.com/3829oe ) As far as runner-ups stuff... sorry... we are only announcing the winners. - Amanda
So only you get all the laughs? Damn.
Why not put the whole caption contest on a wiki so that everyone can not just view all the entries, but also go in and edit the winning captions so they'd be, like, much funnier, I'll bet, what with everyone working collaboratively to make it funnier and funnier. Just a suggestion...
Well, practically speaking, I don't think it would work. And then how would we give out the reward?
- Amanda
Amanda, I see you're stuck on this whole winner/loser thing...
Okay, how about everyone goes to SurveyMonkey.com and votes for the Wiki contributor they thought added the most funniness to the caption? Pretty simple, really. Can't see why that wouldn't work. - P
This isn't American Idol. I don't want to dance with Sanjaya.

As you are aware, we've been running a caption contest here at Strumpette for the last four months. It's been a huge success and we couldn't be happier. Well... okay... show your appreciation Amanda! Put our money where our mouth is.
