This is a spin-off of my MW project blog. Had an interesting pic from a recent game and someone suggested a caption contest. Pic and rules below. Submissions are CLOSED... so while you are welcome to add your own caption they won't be considered in the final voting. But please vote in any case... the winner get's to name my new Apothecary! I don't want to post the picture 20 times, so I'll post the pic, then several captions as spoilers, then another pic, etc. Hopefully everyone's captions get a reasonable showing.


Contest Rules: Make your best caption to the picture above. Keep it clean, but other than that it's wide open (so feel free to praise or slander my MWs... as long as its clever).
Contest length: Submissions will be accepted for 2 days. The contest will close at 7 PM central time on Wednesday. (no idea what that is GMT)
Judging: By popular acclaim... I'll set up a poll or something after the submission period ends.
Contest prize: Yes, there will be a prize. The winner gets "naming rights" for my new Apothecary! All I ask is that you pick a real-sounding name... not an unintelligible string on internet characters. (OK, I admit it's not MUCH of a prize... but hey, it's better than a sharp stick in the eye)

That's it... let the chips fall where they may!

I suppose I have to vote to see the results of my own poll... or will it automatically show them once the polling period ends? (haven't done a poll before)

@DeathReaper: Nope, but you don't have to vote either. You do have to come up with something funnier though.
