Open Challenge April: Suggestions and Entrants

[Emmitt2222]

Since John Nickle has decided to pass on running the big show anymore, I have elected to take up the reigns unless I prove incompitent or people impeach me. So with that I would first like to establish some slightly clearer rules as to what this challenge should include. The major considerations are:

1.When exactly to report hands and the penalty for not doing so?
[I was thinking Thursday to Sunday would be good, possibly losing hands for not reporting?]
2. What hands do count, for how many?
[I think all hands should count because we want to be motivated to play any winning poker, but not sure on how to count things]
3. The matchups?
[basically its good now, you challenge someone specific or are matched up, but if anyone wants a clearer system of deciding how many hands to do, giving an over or under?]
4. The avatars?
[specific things not allowed?]

Sorry if any of that isn't too clear, but basically just looking for some solid guidlines so we can really get motivated. We want to be encouraged to play more, but not to go nuts because it is in the end only over an avatar. Any and all suggestions on how to better refine this already great established idea would be awesome.

And with that the April Open Challenge is now open for registration, which will close on a specific date [maybe Wednesday]. I'm in for another 10k in April, oh and I do accept rematches DMB [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm in for the first time, put me down for 10k hands. I should be able to do this this month, but a little extra motivation could be helpful.

Im in for the challenge, this will be my first challenge and my first month playing full-time. Im estimating 30K but it will really vary depending on how much I play live.

I'm in for 30k.

[ReadyEddie]

Sure put me down, great way to get to know the 2+2'ers. 10k seems more than doable.
