I think it would be fun if there was a monthly photo caption competition. An admin would post a screenshot and give a caption, and everyone would see if they could top the caption. It would run like the photo contest. What do you think?

Aviation and Flight Simulation Forum not some social place.Lets just stick to the constant chatter of Flight related stuff. SimV's General talk forum is enough I think. Wink

If you want a caption contest, go ahead and post a picture, nobody has a problem with it. Wink

There's been numerous threads like this over the years, they've always produced excellent "captions" and have been good fun. Cool

Not a "monthly contest" though..

Yeh not an official monthly contest, but certainly would be cool to have a screenshot every month or few weeks to give a caption to.

Perhaps the winner could make the next thread and be the judge?

I agree, not an official contest. And I like the idea of beng able to be the judge and start the thread.
