Boring Mediocre Challenge 4 ...Searching!!!

10/08/2007 11:13:26 PM · #1

Welcome to our fourth 'BORING, MEDIOCRE CHALLENGE for Searching

You have to try and end up with the score closes to the nominated score here. And the score for this week's challenge is.....(we have now heard from our new Queen)

picturesbykim ......and the drum roll please..... the score to shoot for is 5.4632

I konw that Judi usually does this but she is swamped, snowed under, piled on, bogged down... you get the picture. So I threw my hat in at her call for someone to try this for a while. I hope I can do it some good at the start and get better as I go so please lets give it a try together.

Judi says that she will be back to this in about two months(the sooner the better from my end) so I'll do my best.

Basically there are rules...

AIM - To not be dragged down over a mediocre score...but instead to have a bit of fun with it. You can't change the score...but you can change how it makes you feel.

1 - You need to nominate yourself within 24 hours of the start of this thread. You don't have to post your score in this thread...but it is encouraged.

2 - It is encouraged to trash talk....just as you would in a normal score thread.

3 - The one with the score closest to the nominated score (see score above) at the end of voting wins. The organiser will contact the winner to notify them of their win and what they are to do next.

4 - The winner determines what everyone else has to use in their next shot. This WILL include options to suit all abilities/tastes/locations. And it DOES NOT include aiming to shoot for brown or to make any particular entry/s stand out to be noticeably part of this challenge.

5 - The 'punishment' is then determined, by the organiser, whether it is suitable ...after which it is then PM'ed to all members who stood up to the challenge and all members must keep the punishment to themselves to prevent the rest of the site members in being able to identify the images in the next weeks challenges.

Once you are in, that's it. You stay in.....hehehehe!!

Hey come on you lot....

Quigley took the bull by the horns and took over this job. Now the least you can all do is jump on the bandwagon and make him work for his money...Make his first Challenge list be a long one.

So come on now...or the whips will come out.

Thank you

Judi your support for large numbers in my first go round makes me only long for you to return even faster but if I have to work hard the first time out the rest of them untill you return will be a cake walk.

This wonderful award is for the person who finishes furthest from the Mediocre score posted in this thread it could be either way, to high or to low.

I am proud to have one myself and sport on my front page have a look :-}

By the way why are you not eligible??
