Master Gunner announcing winners on Page 4 wrote:Bump for Winners!!!

First Place: Concupiscentcrustacean

Runner-Up: Rikadyn

So both of you have had your nominations, and will be joining our ranks shortly (or rather, whenever Tim has the time to fiddle around with your accounts to give you your medal and forum access).

To everybody else: Thank you for participating, and best of luck in future challenges. Some of you may get nominated in sometime in the future, but that's up in the air at this point, and my recommendation is just to continue being awesome so other Runners take notice.






Some people have being asking about when the next Runners operation will be, and since the crew is busy, a few of us have decided to put together a simple operation of our own.

The task is simple, take this image:

and caption it/put in a speech bubble with what Paul is thinking. The winner(s) get nominated into the Runners (assuming the Crew doesn't veto any of this), where we have secret conversations about the rest of you behind your backs (not really). So have at it!


Deadline: Thursday at Noon, Pacific Time.

"If I were to crash the bus right now, and somehow travel back in time and make it seem like it was Bill's fault, would anyone truly call foul?"

I call it "l'Conspiracy."

My alternates would be:

"If everyone else is just using the cloak of invisibility to trick me into playing again, I'm going to be really mad."

"This road is so long, and so straight, and so barren, but you know what? It's very well maintained; I've never seen a single pothole or crack on it, and considering I've never seen any repair crews either, that is a really impressive feat of roadwork.... God, I'm bored."

and

"Wait a second, how would you even get to one of those bus stops?"

That hasn't being decided yet, but it will probably just run a week or two.

I'd recommend only giving it two or three days, with the number of submissions you'll get for something like this.

Wow, 2009 is a lot quieter than I remember it. Did I overshoot again?

Tim knows better than I do. So unless there are any objections, deadline is Noon PST on Thursday. As for a limit on submissions: There's no official limit, but try to only post the funniest ones.

It's a bit small, it says:

This isn't so bad, but I'm glad James is coming back soon.


James is coming back...he said he would...he wouldn't lie to me would he?


WOULD HE!?!

This game is so rustic... The sort of thing you can only appreciate when you have three PS3s.

-"Hey Graham, look at this: I can bus with my eyes closed... and I'm still doing a better job than Bill!"

-*fantasizing* "Yeah, you're a dirty bus. You like that, yeah, I'll give you a little bit of rumble strip. Oh, I just bug splatted all over your windshield!"

-"Oh god! I'm having that dream where I'm stuck bus-ing alone again and the chat is stuck. Maybe if I just close my eyes I'll wake up and this nightmare will be over...."

-"I wonder if hair would count as something for Things on My Head...."

"Ah, the peace and tranquility of driving this bus with over a thousand people crammed in on board really makes this all bett--OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT!? Nope. Nope, everything's fine. It's peachy. Nothing. Bad. Happened... James?" *fetal position*

Or just simply;

"On the road again.. Just can't wait to get back OFF THIS GOD DAMN ROAD.. Again~! Going to places I've never been.. Like Tuscon... And Vegas.. Ah, screw it."
