Have you liked the Farm Story Facebook Page? If you haven't, try that and see if you are then able to post your caption.

[ladyj0y]

I am such a stupid thing! Shame on me XDDD

[jackroc]

yea FB wont let me comment. I thinks its more fair to have ALL contests here in the forums so that EVERY ONE can participate. Its not fair to those who dont have a FB.

[sterlingempire]

I keep my FB personal. I only did two of the contests. :(

[Phthon]

I used my personal FB account...how will they know who is who? do they ask the winner for their ID?

[Superyalda]

I stayed awake for this one. 2:15am here ... Gotta stay up another 45 minutes to find out who won! Zzzz...

[GroupMagma]

I used my personal FB account...how will they know who is who? do they ask the winner for their ID?

Either the winner can just say it in the thread, or we PM for the ID.

[Phthon]

Ah, thank you! I'll await the results (im)patiently! :D

[Mogwai4111]

One of those captions is gold. I wonder if it was a forum member?

[LanokaHarbor]

Which one?

[Mogwai4111]

Which one?

I'll say after the winner is decided. Don't wanna jinx them

[driftboutique]

One of those captions is gold. I wonder if it was a forum member?

Which one? There were actually a bunch of really funny ones on there earlier but they seem to have disappeared. Mine's gone too :(

(yes, I'm viewing all comments)

[Mogwai4111]

It's someone who posted like 5 captions so I'm not sure if it will even count?

[myweedpatch]

Who cares how many they post! If they can think them up then let them enter as many as they want as long as it's not a copy of someone's who posted it earlier!

[Mogwai4111]

That's a good point. On the forums there was a rule of one caption per person, that's why I mentioned it.

[myweedpatch]

GM...can you post the winning caption from the Facebook games on the forum so those that don't have Facebook can enjoy them too?

[Superyalda]

It's someone who posted like 5 captions so I'm not sure if it will even count?

Hmmm, maybe me :)

[myweedpatch]

Hmmm, maybe me :)

Well, my humble opinion...you must be clever as well as dedicated to the games and forum to come up with so many.

By the way, only contest 3 had the edited instruction of only one entry...mainly cuz GM didn't like that I posted 7 as soon as the contest started....I stayed up all night thinking of those. That's how dedicated I am too!

So, your not alone. :-)

[Mogwai4111]

Haha that is some SERIOUS dedication!

[myweedpatch]

Oh, I see the winner is another sing song...GM must like rhyming...I'll remember that for the future. :-)

Congrats Veronica!

[Superyalda]

Nice caption! Congrats, Veronica!

[Superyalda]

And now we wait in suspense for the next contest!

I'm really pushing the contests in game, btw. Anyone else doing that?

[Phthon]

Thanks guys! I had that song stuck in my head all day...

[bigbux3]

Aw, I didnt even get a chance to post :(

[Mogwai4111]

Which one?

My favorite was Gisele Desrochers, I don't see it up there anymore but it went something like

"5 beers or less, use the left line."

[casadolce]

I think there's some flaws in putting the contest on Facebook. First, we now all know the really name of the winner (assuming she uses her real name on FB) who we all this time know only by her storm ID. the anonymity is lost. Secondly, when we enter the contest on the forum, it's one entry per storm ID (or per device). On FB people can create multiple FB accounts and submit multiple entries. Also if I'm so inclined I can ask my friends to submit entries under their FB accounts on my behalf (most of my co-workers are my FB friends) and provide TL with my storm ID when one of those entries win. So you can have a lot of "likes" on your FB page and a lot of entries from people who don't actually play the game. When the contest is over, all they have to do is click "unlike".

Just my two cents.

[myweedpatch]

Honorable mention should go to the one about needing gems to use the loo!

Might as well be true! I got a good giggle out of that one!

[GroupMagma]

@casadolce;

Good points. I'll be sure to address them in the post-mortem, though that'll be next week. :)

[ladyj0y]

I am sad T___T and yes that's right. I don't like FB for posting too. And I didn't See the Caption of thecwinning Girl. strange

[Mogwai4111]

I can post it for you!

"We're Gnomes of the Farm and Stable.
We dance when e're we're able
We have Routines and Chores and Things
...With Gnomes too Hot for Cable
We stand in line and Farm-a-lot
We have to use the loo-a-lot!"

Nice going, Phthon. Monty Python ?

[shakiba]

So when will they post the winners for the captions??
Or do they post it on facebook and not the forums? ;(

[Phthon]

Nice going, Phthon. Monty Python ?

Yep! I'm a HUGE Monty Python fan!

Spam anyone?
