MHDC: The Rebel

Once again I want to say thanks to those who entered into the Selfie Caption Contest - not only did you all enter fantastic captions, but you were very patient with me when I was delinquent in replying to your emails and delayed in posting these wonderful submissions. Go check them out if you haven't already!

Speaking of delaying, it's been a while since I posted any caps in either series. Unfortunately, you're only getting a Mildew High Dress Code cap for now - I do have some Duck Flu caps in storage but I'm hoping to delve into a little more story-oriented streak before going to the true single-cap nature that I envision for the series. But anyways, enjoy this cap!

MHDC: First Day Selfie

Another quick plug for the recent Hair Caption Contest - I really like these images and think there's a lot of potential for good caps, so hopefully you all agree and send in wonderful caps!

Today and tomorrow will be posts from the two series/themes that I've fleshed out the most, namely the Mildew High Dress Code series and Duck Flu theme. I'm probably going to put the Pink Room on hiatus for a bit, both to allow me to focus on these projects I have a vision for and also to ensure that I have a more complete collection of Pink Room caps to post consistently. So today, we are continuing on with the next installment of the Mildew High Dress Code with an idea that will likely crop up more than once in this series due to high schoolers' natural obsession with it: selfies. Read on to find out how Miss Clarke has implemented this into fulfillment of the Dress Code!

MHDC: Role Models

Thank you to everyone who voted in the poll for the caption contest - winners should have been posted by now and emailed for the opportunity to get a prize cap! 

So today we have the second cap in the Mildew High Dress Code series. I'm trying to go a little bit chronological here, but I feel that a lot of future caps will still be quite standalone like I hope this one is. Also, I've included some short polls on the right of the blog asking various questions about all of the series. I want to get a sense from people who might not be inclined to comment about what their preferences for the development of each series is. So go vote in those polls and enjoy this caption!
*EDIT* I decided not to put up polls because I realized that my questions were too general. I think I'll explore some options, see what the reaction is, and maybe ask questions later!

School Dress Code Opening

Hello all! As a heads up, I will be posting submissions for the Best Friends Caption Contest tomorrow (possibly in 7 hours) meaning if you want your cap to get in you need to send it to me ASAP.

Today I have the start of three days that I hope to be very exciting. Not because of any phenomenal standalone caps, but because I will be posting the beginning "context cap" for each of the three series/themes you all wanted to see (namely the School Dress Code Series today, Duck Flu series/them tomorrow, and the Pink Room theme on Tuesday)! My goal with these captions are to 1. Give you a sense of what the series is about and 2. Try to use them to open up some discussion on what details/direction should I take for each plot. With that in mind, I hope to see lots of comments/emails to help shape the direction of what I believe could be some very fun additions to this blog!

So first up today is the School Dress Code series, which for now on will be dubbed the "Mildew High Dress Code". It's based off this lovely cap from Ian and is simply about a school where all students are forced to wear slutty schoolgirl outfits and look like bimbos! I'd like you all to read both Ian's cap and this first one below, then hopefully give me some feedback to questions below the cap!

So hopefully by this point you've read both Ian's and my first cap (and maybe even enjoyed them!) - now for some feedback. I have a general sense of where/what I want to do with this - it's going to be somewhat chronological, at least in the beginning, to try and establish some norms and possible reactions to the new dress code. What I want to know from you is this: should I write caps mostly in third person as if they've already happened (kind of like the opening paragraph to this first cap) or should I try to focus more on dialogue as if events are happening? Secondly, what possible ideas for things that could happen to students at school? Does the football team become a cheerleading squad? Are teachers also subject to these dress code requirements? Should I make caps about female students affected as well? Let me know!
