Not a Matrix CapCom - though I was tempted to start off with one - but a new wrinkle on the old game. The rolling CapCom, or, if you will, the CapCom Revolutions. 8)

The rules are simple:-

1. I post an image, and specify a time period within which anyone can reply: say, about two days.
2. Everyone enters caption suggestions, as many as you like.
3. Once the time period has elapsed, I name one winner.
4. That winner then has to find, upload, and post an image of their own, again specifying when the deadline will be.
5. They then pick a winner, and that person carries on.

. . . and so on!Some things to remember:



 -

Take it away! You have until 10 am Saturday (PST).

Just a suggestion, but perhaps future incarnations of this contest should have their own threads, before this one just expands and expands into oblivion.

Well, part of the point was that it was going to be a rolling thing. Word Association and Wolf 359 threads expand into oblivion, why not others? At the moment there are hardly any replies at all, why bother having a new thread for each last gasp of what is essentially a failed experiment?

In this rare 1884 photograph, the gathering townsfolk of Rattlesnake Gulch, Arizona, stand quietly to the side as German artist, Hans Bl�cher, calmly sets up the first performance art exhibition in the United States.

Bl�cher, seen here leaning over one of his artists, spent years perfecting his craft on the streets of Berlin along with a close associate known only as Helmut. Helmut is pictured here on the right, removing his pants in preparation for the piece.

Moments after this photograph was taken, the crowd, clearly disturbed by what they had seen, attacked the three members of the troop, killed them, dismembered the bodies and dumped the remains down a local mineshaft.

Historians write that performance art in the United States suffered a major setback as a result, resurfacing years later in San Francisco.

The name Hans Bl�cher has been all but forgotten.

I'm grossly disappointed at the scarcity of "Gunsmoke" jokes. That's neither here nor there. So, the runners up: Lee's was succinct and very humorous and worked in a Flare-mainstay so it was ranked high(but he's been up twice already). Jay's was more imaginative and made me think about beating up kraut mimes (which is very funny to me for reasons I'd rather not go into), but unfortunately ran long (and he's been up already). So, the winnar is: Ritten. Shine on you crazy diamond.
