Would anyone be interested in doing the 4.40 challenge at the $22 level? If I get some replies, I'll run it or someone else can.

At midnight I'm back in my room, it serves as a drunkards tomb.

I don't play these, but if someone else wanted to set it up I wouldn't freak out about you bastards stealing my genius idea.

Alright, I'll set it up. Going to be a little different than what is used for the 4.40's.Going to run it off of PLB points (not sure what they used, seemed abritrary?)This formula is: http://www.pocketfiv...05B4870196.aspxPrize pool is obviously constant for all these tournament, (3600 for those who suck at math), so your numerator is always 60. Divide that by your place to .6 power. Or just use the calculator, it works. Each player will play up to 20 $22 180 man SnG tourneys between November 8th and November 30th, ONLY YOUR FIRST 20 COUNTThe competition will begin at 12:00am EST on November 8th, and end on November 30th at 11:59pm EST.In the event that November 30th comes around and some players have not finished all 20, they may only play one AFTER 11:59pm if they register and post the tourney ID# BEFORE the deadline. Even though the $22 wont start till after the deadline, as long as you post it BEFORE the deadline, you are ok.You must post the tourney ID# of the $22 you are in BEFORE IT STARTS, someone will then quote the post to confirm. Once you're eliminated you must again post in the thread, and again someone needs to quote it to confirm.The quoting helps eliminate the possibility of cheating. Because if someone is eliminated quickly, they could try and edit their post to say the are in a different $22 that hasn't started yet.So even if you are not in this please help us by confirming things for us. When someone says the are in tourney #XXXXXXXX please check that tourney # and confirm the player is in. Once the player busts, again ANYONE can search the tourney # and confirm the player busted in the place they say. All you have to do is QUOTE the post that way, if they change their post, the quoted portion of the confirm post wont change. The buyin for this will be $150, payouts will be 1 person paid for every 5 entrants, with %ages announced once finalized. I will not cap the # of entrants, nor will I set a deadline for when you must register by. If you want to join November 29th and play 20 of these in the next 2 days, I see no reason why not.I will hold the money (if people have a problem with that we can work with it I guess, but you all better trust my by now), so ship $150 to onlyme386 (spokane) on stars and post below with your stars name (city) and confirmation that you have shipped. You are not in the challenge until you have shipped, and no scores you report will be valid until entry is received.At least once a week I will post the updated scores for everyone to review. If anyone else wants to keep track of the scored, feel free. Let me know and I will ship you the excel sheet with the equations written in.

I'm confused...if only the first 20 count, how are people going to cheat?

Get in one, bust early, come back and edit the number to a different one.

Exactly. Or change it to a random comment, so it looks like you didn't play any tournaments.OP: in #xxxxxxxedited: Not playing today, just don't feel like i'm gonna run good.
