    Hey! If you guys turn this into a substitute for RT7, you'll be disqualified. :p

    Betting conversation only.

    Does anyone else wish to bet on any of our 14 contestants?

    This will be closed tomorrow at 5:30PM EST.

    Damnit. :lol:

    Oh yeah, you can't back out of either challenge once you've placed a bet. Only expection is Aaron, as he had a substitute bet and he did it before I said something. :lol:

    I might as well bet on everyone, including myself.

    Mark did it and so can I.

    Plus my sig's never going to be any more exciting than when I lose.

    Just a question. But say if someone like smashpilot or holiday lost, does that mean they'd have to have 7 different things in their sig? or do we all get together and discuss one thing to put in?

    Goddamnit, I spend one day away from the computer and I miss out on a challenge like this *pout*

    My bets: Holiday, Nukefish, Maverik68. In my opinion it's dangerous to bet against Friskey, Tomi, Uncle Raj and the others :lol:

    I'll think about that. But don't worry about that until they lose.

    Hey. a small point came up in the myspace forum.. we were wondering, if we beat you to 1000 in our RT, can we win something? something like V.I.P accounts, but, probably not that extreme. But something to make it more chalenging for everyone. so you have to beat us as well as us resisting temptation. so that it's a competition for everyone, rather than just 14 people.

    Guys. This contest is my idea and I'd rather not have everyone trying to change it or add on to it. You're making it too confusing, and it's all too much. You're beginning to make me regret opening up this contest. Just agree to the conditions I laid out and stop trying to build onto it and incorporate your own ideas into it. It's annoying.

    That's a terrible idea. The fact is, I disapprove of the MySpace thing in the first place (although there's nothing I can do to change it). You're still not proving you can go without posting in the thread you depend upon most because you're doing it vicariously somewhere else. You're undermining the purpose of this. You're not making sacrifices to attain the future goal, you're only choosing another avenue, which was not my intent. And you want bloody extra bonuses for doing something that's completely unrelated to our forums? Think about it. No.

    So please, no more suggestions on how to improve or alter this contest, I won't take any more of it.

    The thread will be closed in 3 hours. Please avoid annoying me within that timespan and maybe I'll survive the day without a headache.

    Nukefish: Just read the original post. When they bet against you, they're saying you can't go 1000 posts in RT7 without posting yourself. I'm getting tired of explaining it. Why sign up when you don't understand the conditions?

    Hey, did anyone notice I'm in a bad mood? Yay.

    Fairplay. sorry. Just making a suggestion. we'll just leave that idea now then. And seeing as that isn't happening, if it means that much to the competition, we can ditch the myspace idea too. It was basicly only me and Friskey anyway.
