Hello to one and hello to all, and welcome! I'm your host and moderator (last part seems a bit unecessary; these things usually run pretty smoothly on their own) for this second thread, AProcrastinatingWriter!
Well then, let's get to the nitty-gritty of things by reminding all you fine folks how to play...of course, if you already remember, feel free to skip this spoiler. It is, admittedly, very long.
During each round, the winner of the last round (or "judge") of the caption competition will post a picture from Homestuck or Problem Sleuth (bonus and charity pages included) that will be offered up as the guidelines for entries. Each person who wants to play that round may do so by entering in a caption to match the given picture, usually humorous (though if you think you can manage to win with a serious or thought-provoking caption, you are free to do that as well.) Pictures, as a general rule, should not be reused throughout the same topic, though pictures from previous topics are fair game.
No one may post more than one caption for any picture except at times when two days have passed AND six people or less have currently posted a caption. In the event that these conditions are met and somebody does post more than one caption, they may not place twice in that round's judging. If there are ever less than people competing in a round when it comes time to judge, than third and, if necessary, second place will be abolished.
After three-to-six days, or once the amount of captions has died down to nothing (at judge's discretion, though it is generally accepted that twenty-four hours with no captions is long enough), the many or few entries that round will be judged. In judging, the judge will repost the picture, and then post the captions of the people who got first, second, and then third...or third, second, then first, as each judge prefers. Those who place third will earn 1 point for themselves, those in second shall earn three, and those in first shall earn five. Then shall be posted the current scoreboard, updated to reflect any new additions from the round that just finished.
Though suggestions may be made before the fact, none are allowed to complain of the judge's final decision once the round is over. Exceptions may be made if you are semi-seriously talking about your own caption receiving first place.
Once a round is over, whoever won the last round shall then refer to the beginning of these rules so this cycle may continue. If any choose to give up their right to judge, they will still be able to compete in the next round. However, they will not earn any points by doing so.
So that's all settled, and there's only one more thing to worry about before we continue...
The Final Scores The Grand Triumvirate in GloriousComic Sans
And now, for those of you not privyy to all the hilarious things that went on in the previous thread, allow me to show you in the clearest form I possibly can, in this celebration of
The Best of the Best! A retelling of the First Caption Competition Thread.

Perched upon a broken toilet just above my messy floor -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

All he had was her flower rod. He would mourn her for the rest of his very short life.

Little did he know the "Rose" he called was not a dainty flower (like the man in front of him) but a large yet young girl of whom would soon be ruining the tender moment.

"I've become a rump model, Dad. Just like... just like you."
The old elf was in shock. Tears were streaming down his face. This was quite possibly the greatest day of his life. "Son, I... I am so proud of you. So, so proud."

It might just save your lives but only if you listen well.
'Cause there before the battlefield
And just around the way,
There's a sign that says,
"Beware The Beast of Skaia's Bay!"
Some say he's a bunny a kid put in a box.
He ate so many soldiers, now they flee from him in flocks.
His eyes are red as lasers
His paws, they are like knives.
And if you think he's cuddly, wait 'till you see his insides!
Oh, don't you sail and don't you row and certainly don't you swim,
'Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him.
He'll eat you up, he'll spit you out. You'd better stay away.
Heed the sign that says, "Beware the Beast of Skaia's Bay!"
Some say he's a rabbit that came straight from hell,
To eat the souls of soldiers and stubborn ne'er-do-wells.
Some they don't believe it, as for me I've got a hunch.
'Cause they used to have some soldiers here.
But he ate them all for lunch!
Oh, don't you sail and don't you row and certainly don't you swim,
'Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him.
He'll eat you up, he'll spit you out. You'd better stay away.
Heed the sign that says, "Beware the Beast of Skaia's Bay!"
Well, Jacquerel, you've heard of him, he came to Skaia's Bay.
It seems his sexy nemesis had nearly got away.
He lunged down towards Skaia to stab at Snowman.
There was a crunch and a scream!
And now that scurvy Bec Noir’s got neither of his hands!
Oh, don't you sail and don't you row and certainly don't you swim,
'Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him.
He'll eat you up, he'll spit you out. You'd better stay away.
Heed the sign that says, "Beware the Beast of Skaia's Bay!"
Well, Spinnerette Mindfang, you know for what she's feared.
It's mostly for the way she looked whenever she sneered.
She saw the beast and now nobody's scared of her because,
Her hair fell out and all agree,
She looks ugly as balls!
Oh, don't you sail and don't you row and certainly don't you swim,
'Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him.
He'll eat you up, he'll spit you out. You'd better stay away.
Heed the sign that says, "Beware the Beast of Skaia's Bay!"
Well, now the camp town's empty and there's only you and me.
And if you care I'd like to share how this song came to be.
So come a little closer if you really want to know.
This very sad and woeful tale happened so long ago.
Well, I was just a little girl when I went to Skaia's Bay
And there I saw a creature that was very much dismayed.
With a trident in his dorsal fin and a hole shot through his side,
This mighty whale was in such pain, we both began to cry.
I pushed and I shoved, but he wouldn't give way
Into the deeper waters off our shallow Skaia's Bay.
All I could do to help him was to keep soldiers away,
So I wrote a sign that said, "Beware The Beast of Skaia’s Bay!"
And what did it say?
Don't you sail and don't you row and certainly don't you swim,
'Cause if you aren't careful you'll end up inside of him.
He'll eat you up, he'll spit you out. You'd better stay away.
Heed the sign that says, "Beware."
Hell I should know, I put it there!
Heed the sign that says, "Beware the Beast of Skaia's Bay!"

No one could explain why John's dad had decided it would be a good idea to sniff the tongue of a three-toothed monster.

The tracker dad had received the scent, there was no way he could fail now.
As I usually say to people, signatures are for people who care. And I care. Intensely. The intensity burns me just thinking about how much I care about signatures.
This is what happens when you eat fairy floss and your best friends tells you an amazing joke. You spend the next 3 hours sniffing it back in or wiping it off with your sticky hands

You really need to stop sniffing bubblegum, but addiction is a powerful thing.
I immediately noticed that 95% of everyone on the opposite side of every argument were complete idiots. After a while, however, I started to realise that 90% of everyone on my side of every argument were also idiots. Then I realised that statistically, that meant there is a 90% chance that I am an idiot. And now I don't post on the Bioware forums anymore.

Ah, you love the smell of the previous thread more. It was longer after all. This is a very short one. Fortunately, it will grow in time. Like all magical threads do.
I vote for a new scoreboard, but putting the old one in the OP as well.
Damn, this secret project I'm doing is taking long. I'm planning to post it by my 10.000th post, which according to my calculations should be somewhere end of July, beginning of August 2013 (I have 5150 posts at this point, but I have already been going for 3 months or so)
Theories
Liv Tyler's whole journey will be shown in a flash called [S] Terry: Fast forward to Liv while a fast version of "How Do I" plays. Semi-confirmed.
While Caliborn is talking to this person at the other side of the terminal, this person at one point says: “Hey. Caliborn. Don’t turn your back on the body.”
Caliborn turns around and notices Gamzee’s body is gone.
honk
And so it begins again. Semi-confirmed.
GCat just teleported Roxy to the Condesce.Confirmed
Calliope and uu are living on B2 Earth, or maybe a doomed timeline version of it where the Red Miles didn't reach it (yet).
uu will write the LE code to make himself immortal.
A Frog Temple for Calliope and uu is somewhere in the Trolls' meteor somehow.
Gamzee went into hiding so he could protect the corpses of the Trolls of being destroyed so he could prototype them in B2.
GCat is Calliope's jUjU, in case the Cherubs are living on B2 Earth, late into the future. It would make a bit of sense, since First Guardians have Lime coloured features (teleportation powers, tongue, etc.) which Calliope has as blood colour. Also, Calliope is a Hero of Space and Heroes of Space usually have connections to their First Guardian.
B2 Earth is not going to get destroyed by the Red Miles since the Condesce, GCat, Lil Cal and Lil Seb are still there.
Dad will find Jane's body on Derse and a callback is made to Grandpa Harley finding Dream Jane's body. Not knowing how to escape, Dad panics. But then, B2 Jade comes flying along on a ship and offers him a ride and he gets shipped somewhere. Perhaps shipped with someone else. Perhaps he gets shipped with B2 Rose.
After the scratch, Dad had lost more than his memories. He lost her. He didn't know who she was or why he missed her, but he did. He tried to put it behind him, though. After all, he was a father now. Raising Jane was no easy task, but if anything from his past life came through it was his parenting skills, no matter how much work they needed. Still, they got by. And until that day, everything was well. That day, Jane was taken away from him. He searched for her, not knowing that she was following behind. Eventually he ended up on Skaia, where he heard a voice. He ran towards it, thinking it sounded familiar, but quickly realised it wasn't the voice of Jane, and broke down crying. Why did this happen? Why did he lose her? Why couldn't he protect her? Why couldn't someone...? ...She needed a mom. It was a simple enough thought, but he couldn't think about why that meant so much. At that point, the voice he heard earlier came over to him. When she saw him crying, she didn't know what to say, so she just handed him a scarf she found so that he could dry his eyes and blow his nose. He buried his face into the scarf, doing just that. But then he just held it up to his nose and sniffed - perhaps to clean his sinuses or perhaps just to smell it. Something stirred in his mind. He looked to the girl. "Are you Jane's friend?" "Yes." Dad hugged Roxy as if she were his own daughter.
At that moment, he knew Jane would be ok.
He brought the scarf closer to his nose and sniffed deeply. The scent was faint, but he was sure he recognized it. It almost smelled like... yes, yes, like...
Concerning Awesome Best of Best Posts: They are awesome, APW! Just thought you should know.
Concerning Scores: I like resetting them. Posting the old scores in the OP would be neat, too, or you could just slap up a link to the first thread. But regardless: Resetting scores is an awesome idea.

<--- That picture over there is called "Two Sheep Flying", by Wendy Detrick Worsham; to find more of her stuff, go here.
At long last, you pull yourself over the last hump and collapse on the summit of the strange pink rock formation. Long has this odd spire dominated to landscape by your people, and here you are, the first graysnake in the world to have conquered its heights.
However, your jubilations are quickly interrupted by a massive earthquake as an even larger, dull red mountain rises from the surface beyond. Peering up at it, you see the form of another, riding it to the heavens like a mechanical bull. No. No, this cant be! This was supposed to be your glorious moment of triumph! You can think of only one person who could be responsible for this travesty. Filling your lungs, you rear back and let loose a guttural cry of defiance: SNIIIIIIIIIIIFFFFFFFF!!!!
