I'm in for a go. Hopefully I'll manage the time...

Just two more days for you to sign up before I collect your averages and move to make the pairings.

Roll up, roll up!

Sure sign me in, not sure If I qualify but Im in!

I am not a member but registered, if it is for members only, I have to be out..

(for the one whom asked the question if registers can see these threads, yes I can see all of them, however I am not sure if we are allowed to participate in them or not)

I wish my 3.x in b&w was counting toward my average before we begin....but that's ok at least I can point out to Wendy shortly that I'm indeed back in the 4.x range :)

I'm travelling for the next few weeks so I'm not sure if I will make all the challenges but I would like to play too. At lease I can give someone the chance to easily progress :)

This year, I've deliberately made it accessible to registered users - so you are more than welcome!

Last day of sign-up today...
05/02/2014 03:18:44 PM · #61
Bump. This will be fun -- sign up before it's too late.
05/02/2014 04:04:18 PM · #62
Yeahhh thanks Paul!

05/02/2014 04:08:21 PM · #63
Count me in! :D
05/02/2014 04:37:55 PM · #64
can't wait for the trash talking to begin
05/02/2014 07:27:19 PM · #65
I'll sort the pairings out in the morning!

Still a few hours to get in unde the wire.

OK!

I've taken our averages and made the pairings based on arranging us by our average score as it reads backwards (least significant digit first). This gives us fairly random pairings. There is one exception. mishmao14 is new and as yet doesn't have an average but (unlike cdr1401) has 3 images currently in voting - all will complete before I have to make the calculation as to whether she has beaten her average in the challenge that starts on rollover on Tuesday. I therefore added her into the bottom of the list after I had done the (pseudo)randomisation. The pairings for round one are therefore:

flaherma
FourPointX

Stagolee
Abra

macwilyum
MeMex2

SaraR
markwiley

Cynthiann
glad2badad

lovemelvin
jgirl57

Mnet
mrchhas

tome
ecmguy

Rodfulk
Urho

Paul
rjkstesch

jcar
Ja-9

vawendy
Bear_Music

Kroburg
deeby

DCrest01
MarkB

colorcarnival
cryan

spiritualspatula
P-A-U-L

EstimatedEyes
ancientimages

davidw
beatabg

chalice
mishmao14

Cuttooth
hajeka

So - that's who you are up against in Round 1. Remember, we are starting on the challenge that is announced on Rollover Tuesday night. You'll have a week to shoot and to let your opponent(s) know by how much you anticipate to beat them. Trash talking is not at all discouraged!

Well, if you ever wondered about the answer to "does a bear go to the bathroom in the woods": only when he sees the first pairing -- it'll scare the crap out of him! :p

I dunno about that... You got a pretty strong average to live up to: 6.2 vs my 5.6, give or take. The way I see it, I have a .6 head start and you're slogging through the swamp muck with chigger bites all over, trying to catch up :-)

Crud! Head-to-head with my old teammate right out the gate.

... and it had to be Cynthia of all people! I used to like her, now I have to get all fired up and pull out the big guns. Better watch out!!!
