'' Quick! Now's the time to act -- before the humans catch on! THQ and Pandemic are offering would-be humorists, gamers, and alien-lovers the chance to become part of their innovative new parody of 1950s alien movies, Destroy All Humans!

If you have one single ounce of creativity and verve in your bones, you absolutely must submit to THQ's evil scheme to Destroy All Humans and partake in the master plan!

In case you missed our preview of Destroy All Humans!, you take on the role of an alien searching Earth for resources to aid your dying race. Among other superb "alien" abilities, you can read people's minds.

This is where you come in. THQ and Pandemic are offering gamers the chance to examine one of five images, each presenting a different situation. They want you to write in the funniest, wittiest or most uproarious caption or "thought" to describe it. Once you submit your "thought," Pandemic will hand pick the best (and funniest) one for each situation. Winning entries will become part of the game.

Included are a handful of visual examples and a short video clip of the kinds of captions THQ is generally seeking. You'll see caption possibilities for a farmer, a farmer's wife, a housewife, a mayor, and a scientist. Surely, you'll be able to think of something! The only real catch is that all entries must be 15 words or less and you can enter one "thought" per image, for a total of five submissions per person.

Once you're finished, send the corresponding "thought" to the proper email (Farmer@thq.com, Farmerswife@thq.com, Housewife@thq.com, Mayor@thq.com, Scientist@thq.com), and then sit back and wait. THQ will announce the best "thoughts" on IGN soon thereafter. ''

Finalist selection: http://ads.ign.com/rules/Destroy_All_Humans.html

''Judging/Finalist Selection: All entries meeting the requirements of these Official Rules will be judged as follows: a) Humor - 50%, b) creativity/originality - 25% and c) subject matter appropriateness - 25%. A total of 15 finalists will be selected (three per character). In the event of a tie, Finalists will be determined by the judge's score in the category. In the event of a second tie, Finalists will be determined by the judge's score in the category. Each of the 15 winning thoughts may be included in the game in Sponsor's sole discretion. The names of the finalists will appear in the credit section of the game if their entry is included in the game. The decisions of the judges on all matters pertaining to this contest are final. ''
