One-liner game contest! (The winner is...)
« on: November 30, 2011, 02:39:45 pm »

I'm giving away one Steam key for Runespell: Overture to whoever wins this contest. But this isn't a randomized giveaway, oh no! Whoever comes up with the best one-liner gets the game! It can be a pickup line, catch phrase, pun, joke, riddle, anything that fits on a single line on these forums! The winner will be announced on Sunday, and will be messaged the code (on these forums)!

Contest starts now, anybody can enter! You can enter up to five separate one-liners, and no creating multiple accounts to bypass the limit. The only requirement is that it is (somewhat) original, on one line, and somewhat witty. If you have a question, read the underlined text first.

Butt weight, there's ore! If I can't decisively decide who to give the code to, I'll just post it in the thread title and assume it gets grabbed by a random lurker.

Maybe it's parasitic. It never loses its flavor because you eventually die from having your nutrients stolen by it.

there is a problem there.
screen resolution determines width of screen.
therefore one could write something which barely stays in one line, and another one would end up reading a two line thing.

“Well,” he said. “We’re in the Forgotten hunting grounds I take it. Your screams just woke them up early. Congratulations, Lyara.”
“Do something!” she whispered, trying to keep her sight on all of them at once.
Basileus clapped his hands once. The Forgotten took a step forward, attracted by the sound.
“There, I did something. I clapped. I like clapping,” he said. -The Investigator And The Case Of The Missing Brain.

It'll grow the community! They'll come for the games, they'll stay for the magma, as my mama used to say!

I'll grant a little leniency if that become a problem. But even on 800x600, a one liner should be a one liner.

Poorly planned prize promotions produce predictably pissheaded participants, permanently permeating proper procedure profoundly.



((In other words, please prefer people posting proper puns & poetry.))

I'll probably prefer whatever makes me laugh. Also, is that an actual entry or not?

Possibly. Probably. Posted primarily to present my position on promoting lunatic participation. So yes.  :P

Fine, I'll add you. Just be aware that you're not winning with that entry.
