And it's got a godawful caption to boot.

The image itself works better for 3rd act than for The Grovel, but the caption on Grovel is better. So, my preference would be to move the grovel caption over and start looking for a new grovel image/caption.

[up]The caption on The Grovel was, before rodneyAnonymous removed it, an X shows us how it's done snowclone. That's a terrrible caption for anything

The version on Third-Act Misunderstanding is better quality than the one on The Grovel, so I vote to move it to The Grovel altogether, as it seems to be a better fit there.

[up][up]And yet, it was still better than the zombie thing on 3rd act....

Not even close. I think the zombie face-eating caption is okay. Maybe not for The Grovel, though.

[up] Agreed, it doesn't fit The Grovel at all.

I think the image fits Third-Act Misunderstanding better though. Nothing in the picture depicts any form of grovelling or the lead pleading for their lover to take them back.

Seeing how a vast majority has said this works better on Third Act Misunderstanding, I've removed it from here.

So...

We gonna come up with a new image? Or just shut this bad boy down?

IP mods put a deadlock clock on threads after no one has posted in them for a set amount of time, and empty bumps disrupt that. Please don't bump unless you have something to add, such as another suggestion, or want to start a crowner, or something.

Except the mods admit that sometimes they miss threads. By bringing threads to their attention, they can decide whether to deadclock them or lock them.

For this purpose, that is not possible. The date of the latest post in a thread is listed on the IP forum page.

Hmm... seems like we're struggling to find a suitable replacement. Any of these make viable candidates?

That third one is pretty good; the kanji completely overwhelms the first one and the Obama one is too political.

Do we have enough options here to throw a crowner together?

I'd say let's move on to the next stage.

Clock is set. I think 16.3 is the best of everything so far, especially if we can pair it with a good caption.

The clock is way past due on this one. I'm going to make an "executive" decision to go ahead and put 16.3 on The Grovel; we can start a new thread for it later if someone has a better suggestion. The caption can be discussed in the repair thread. Locking up.
