Do you see how the number in the days is the same as the number in the dollars? It's like alliteration for numbers.

this is correct.

I applaud the effort of 2k hands a day for 60 days, but why the monetary goal? I feel like this would make me far too results oriented if I were doing a challenge like this.

I mean, why not make it 30/60, and have it be 180K in 60 days?

i moved this thread because i dont want it in mush. this challenge differs from the other 3 (gonores, schneids, GoT) in a few ways. one is that those 3 are/were beloved here and people had an active interest in their success. you are relatively new here and i dont think there will be that kind of interest. the other is that the others (mainly the 60k in 60 days ones) included long writeups every few days about how they were feeling, things they were doing, interesting hands, etc. that made them good, valuable reads. i dont think you plan on doing it. there are a lot of challenges here and no one cares about most of them. the ones people take interest in are the ones from people who take the time to give us updates.

for anyone reading this who pm'ed me i will get back to you as soon as i can. there was a tragedy in the family of someone very close to me and i havent been around a computer much at all. i ahve 37 unread pm's right now

FWIW, Dave has been posting here for a while and I believe he made that new account to change his name for whatever reason. I believe him to be the same caliber player as gonores/schneids/guyontilt and believe his playing insights could be as helpful as their's. FWIW, he was playing 10/20 sixmax when me/diablo/schneids/gonores/nate/stripsqueez were playing that game and posting in HUSH and back then I believed him to be as tough as any of those.

Sorry for your loss. Having said that, this mod stuff is getting too judgmental and out of hand.
Dave Mac's posts are always one of the first I open. I read this and looked forward to it. Now, because he's not "one of the beloved posters", a simple post of his in the General forum has been reviewed. It's ridiculous.

Cliques are the worst thing for a forum. Everyone knows there are plenty around here and that's just the way it goes. But when guys posts that others enjoy can be shuffled around because they're not in one, it's getting out of hand.

FWIW, I think Forums are like glasses of water. They'll find and keep their own level without much help. The activity required from mods is minimal.
