Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
The challenge will start monday and season 1 will be 10 weeks long. weeks for the purposes of this challenge start Monday and end Sunday. The Challenge will end Nov 13th.

The purpose of this challenge is not too see how many hours you can put in. Rather the goal is to put in a consistent amount of hours week in and week out.

it will run like Nascar or golf where everyone is essentially playing against the feild.

Points will be awarded as such

28-30+ Hours = 6 points
24-27 Hours = 5 points
19-23 Hours = 4 points
15-18 Hours = 3 points

The Roster I have so far is as follows
Shant
thatpfunk
Alobar
Justin A
cyberstack
perseus
Dopey
Emit2222
wheelz

if i have left anyone off let me know by Monday

I am tying to come up with someting for winner/s right now I can arrange a change in 2+2 title and possibly color change. Hopefully it will end up being something better.

Well I suppose this is the best way to get in contact with you as, IM, PM, and e-mail do not work. But you are posting on here about this challenge. Let me know what is going on man. I set aside good time for you, to work on your game, your gameplay scheduling, your bankroll, and other life skills, that you saught out and I have to go find you? Your the one that made the post about wanting help and I spent hours with you via AIM talking and planning, was that all just a waste of my time?

Let me know, I'm going back to my playing. I think I at least deserve some sort of response.

This is the poster formaly known as Perseus. Just so everyoneknows for PM's or anything...

I think we should have something besides the hours points thing as there is a good chance we could have two people tied at the end...but seeing as that I am unimaginative I have no suggestions.

Unless the prize changes what does it matter if there is a tie for first. The proposed prize is something that can be awarded to more than one winner and what is wrong with rewarding multiple winners for succeeding in the challenge.

If your willing to award multiple prizes if necessary this would also eliminate someone putting in excessive hours to win, as that is not the purpose of the challenge.

Edit: It might be wise to add two more levels though (ex. 30-35 hours and 35+) because some people are aiming for that range.

Well I want to be the best god darnit. And I want the prize...all for me.

Could you count me in?

wheelz 09-04-2005 05:50 AM

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
so the idea is, we pick a number of hours from that list and try to hit that many every week for the next 10 weeks?

I got 5 hours in Yesterday but haven't started today yet because I guess I suck at putting hours in.

oh i'm taking over non_comformist for awhile . I assume most you know what's up.

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
I wasn't even planning on playing Monday but somehow ended up pulling an all-nighter and putting in 11.5 hours of regular play plus 1.5 of tourney.

No hours for Tues, however.

13hrs, 3 short of the week before. Yay me.

does 3 hours and 20 minutes in a $3 rebuy satellite count?

yes, but it does call into question your game selection [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
well i could lose $800 in 30 minutes at 20/40, or lose $12 in 3 hours in a $3 rebuy. I'd be broke without these superior game selection skills...

9 hours so far for me. But this week might be one of my worst weeks, since today is the last racing day at Del Mar, so I'm going. Then Friday is my birthday, so Friday and Saturday are basically taken up with drunkness and other such chicanery.

Alobar 09-08-2005 02:07 PM

Wheelz, you have inspired me. Im gunna go sign up for a freeroll toruny, and put it on post and fold and go take a nap. cha ching! im racking up the time [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
haha, hey i tried! but still didn't win the seat. i played my best for 3 hours and 20 minutes just to come like 16th when top 6 get a seat. so demoralizing.

what's even more demoralizing is my results for yesterday: i caught up with a whopping 11 hours 20 minutes of playing time. and i lost $215 during that time. yay. instead of screwing around at friend's place and drinking all day, i did that while playing poker. and i got what i deserved.

cyberSTACK 09-08-2005 04:46 PM

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
1 week in and I have zero hours. I got side tracked and flew to Reno to visit some friends and have been here for the last week and haven't gotten to play.

Do blackjack hours count?

Anyone else?

I know ive been talking lots of stupid in this thread, but im actually doing ok so far. Ive got a bit over 20 hours since monday, so hopefully I should hit the 6 points.

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
25.14 hour so far, Im actually happy with the effort.

I am averaging a little over 5 hours a day since Sept. 1 so hopefully I can keep that up and still take care of some other stuff I have been neglecting.

I think I'm only going to end up at 20 hours this week.

i may have only gotten paid $285 for wcoop event 6 yesterday, but i did get in 6 hours and 20 minutes of playing time!

33 hours baby

Re: Non_Comformist challenge - Season 1 INFO
 
I suck ass, im at 26 hours right now. I should prolly play 2 hours before I go to bed, but I just really dont want to. I'll take the 5 points. Besides I like coming from behind to win better anyway!

Im still actually happy with myself tho, thats more poker in a week than ive played in a while. Hopefully it will roll me into a 30+ next week.

I'd play in this but there's like zero doubt I get to the top every week except this one when I'm on vacation.

I go from being happy with my hours to being a lazy a$$.

I crawled into 6 points putting in 2.92 hours today for a total of 28.06 hours. If I wasn't in this challenge I wouldn't have even gone near my computer today.
