JJProdigy is hosting a 'TLB' like contest this Sunday. It will consist of the following MTTs this week:
Party 200+15 500k (4:30)
Stars 500+30 700k (4:30)
FullTilt 200+16 60k (6:00)
Paradise 200 100k (5:00)
UB 200+15 150k (8:00)
The buyin is $1000. It is very straight forward. There rules are as follows:
Your best 3 finishes only will be counted. (You must play atleast 3 MTTs to qualify.)
Highest score of the 3 combined best finishes wins.
Winner takes all.
Scoring system:
Base points are the percentage tile which you finished it, rounded to the nearest tenth digit (1 after the decimal point)
The formula is : How many people you out lasted / Entrants of MTT x 100
Example : Finishing 1250/3000 = 3000-1250 = 1750
1750/3000 = 58.333 = 58.3 points
Finishing 277/1111 = 1111-277 = 834
834/1111 = 75.06 = 75.1 points
Then, there are bonuses
Add 5 for money
Add 10 for final table (Final table is 10 at some sites, 9 at others)
Add 25 for win
Example : Finishing 8/3205 = 3205-8 = 3197/3205 = 99.75 = 99.8
= 99.8 + 5 + 10
(Percentage tile + Money bonus + FT bonus)
= 114.8 Total Points
Entrants/Payment : For people Josh considers credible, he will either let them pay him upfront, or choose to pay the winner.
For other (most) people, Josh will have to recieve payment upfront before you can enter.
All participants in the bet MUST have stated the screennames they are playing under before any of the sunday events start, in the thread entitled "High Stakes Sunday MTT Contest" on
www.pocketfives.com
If you don't say you are going to play the UB 200 as AliGStyles, and then say "I always play on that account, but was not planning on playing the tournament until my schedule opened up" then you are out of luck. Everyone must play at least three of the five tournaments. Failure to do so will result in disqualification, and the forfeit of your $1000. This is to protect the participants. We cannot have someone trying to take their money back after finishing poorly in two tournaments, because "an emergency came up", and they could not make the third.
Suggestions/Comments are always welcome.

(We've talked to many people about this, and everyone seems interested. Hopefully, if it gets enough interest where this can be a weekly/monthly deal)
Good Luck!
