_Posting this here in the interest of disclosure and the hope it will make acceptance more likely 😉_

I’m not sure everyone knows how much Chris does behind the scenes with updating the site and keeping it running smoothly (not to mention contributions to the prize fund), but it’s a lot.

I’d like it if he’d accept the return of this month’s prize money and put it towards something for his family. Maybe a takeaway meal, or an outing somewhere?

We wouldn’t have this site without his time and effort, so it would be great if he’d accept a small thank-you gesture from our captioning community.

That is very kind of you, James. Much appreciated 🙏

Likewise, people are probably unaware of how much time and effort James and several others have put into [caption.me](http://caption.me) over the last few years, privately helping me design and test new features, keeping an eye on the fairness of the competition, and funding the cash prizes.
