Weekly Contest #1

The Beginning of Silly Contests

As discussed in part of the interview that didn't make the cut yesterday, Jay and I are going to begin weekly competitions to aggregate points for the 3 month weigh-in. The competitor who has won the most weekly competitions by weigh-in will receive a 5% bonus in regard to their portion of the playstation 3.

Example: if the weigh-in creates a 60/40 split and the person who lost the weigh-in won the most competitions the split will be adjusted to 55/45.

Contest #1

This week the contest is simply: who can lose the most weight in a week?

Starting weights: Bryan 203.6 - Jay: 231.4

Jay has already outlined a ridiculous plan to me that includes only popcorn and liquid.

I intend to run about 20 miles this week.

This Sunday's interview will be the end of the contest and the weigh-in.

Suggestions are welcome

We haven't determined what future competitions will consist of, however, they will certainly become more ridiculous. I proposed, and expect, contests that are detrimental to the ultimate goal so that the attempt to win the weekly contest has to be balanced with the desire to win the overall contest. Some type of eating contest or the like. Jay and I also discussed a heads-up poker challenge.

Please submit your most creative, ridiculous, and cruel contest ideas. If a sufficient amount of submissions are not obtained I will be contacting you.

Guest Blogger

I would like anyone of you who can write something entertaining that is at least tangentially related to this competition to be a guest blogger of the week or something like that. We'll be in touch.

Final Thought

This was written on the toilet. Enjoy.
