 :scratch: we could do a 2 man team (you pick your teammate), each team kicks in 10 bucks, 100% payout. (No carry over)

Just a thought.....

So........after the  :offtopic: gibberish banter.....

Yes, or no?

The last time we tried the teams, there was discontent because folks signed up, and didn't participate. My thought was that if you picked your own partner and it was your own money you put up....odds would be better that they would contribute to the success to your team. BUT.... your teammate would also need to be an active member of MNO....

I really want to know what you think.... I can judge it, to stay neutral, which ever you choose....

I'm in either way. we can try 2 man teams, If people like, and say once we get the people signed up and we have and even amount of people, then put all names in a hat, draw out half the names those people choose their partner on a first come first post basis, then if ther is an odd number that person can choose his her team but then is restricted to a handicap, of say a 4th species that HD has to pick. 5 dollar entry sent to HD. sqme rule apply as individual contest. I'm sure ive over complicated this for glenn and lee

After much confusion in da past challenges while reviewing what format to go wit the Ideas kept changing daily. :doofus: This discussion took place on da MNO staff thread. Various thoughts were coming in from left field, right field, and center field. Everyone thought that their suggestion was da best.

I see this happening once again. :doah: Bottom line is the whole thing turned into a huge debate!  :angry2: After weeks of debate we were in a situation that we had created a monster  :taz: wit nuttin resolved.


Enter Fearless Leader:     (HD) :bow:

Wit all dat input we managed to resolve nuttin. :banghead: Therefore wit time runnin short HD took da bull by da horns and made It one man teams. Problem solved! :coffee:


Dat's da short an sweet of it! :happy1:

Personally, I'm good however it's set up. I get the impression from those that posted whichever way it goes there ok with it. HD does a dynamite job at doing this. My thoughts are start a sign up thread throw out a deadline, depending on the entries at that time decide 1 or 2 person teams.

Pick your partner works for me, or random draw also works for me.  I know I'm a lot of help. Lol. 

Who wants to be my partner?

Ooooookkkkkkeeeyyyy......... that was weird......

I just figured if you picked your own partner, than you couldn't get pissed if they don't contribute..... because, you picked them.

I'm fine with the single competition because it's less hassle. But, this ain't what I want. It's what changes you would like to do, if anything at all.
