being even in avg score, you cant really make odds other than 1:1.
and you are getting a cut. if you win, you get a print. (and ill even give you a little tap on the back to congradulate you... happy?).
plus itll boost up your profile views, and then make you sell more prints!

Hey colda, I can see there's more of them comming at you.
To make this duel 1:1 again I give you my support in it, and (to show my generousity) I want no cut when you win.
Well, we can just have some "winners' beer" or so.

Now I think the duel's even.
One Canadian supportet by another Canadian
vs
One European supported by another European (ok nationalities are different but we're both stuck in one country).

plus the two supporters are of Polish origins to make it even more fair :)
This adds up to some strange equations:
2 Canadians + 2 Swiss residents + 2 Polish origins = 4 people.
hmmm. now where did I go wrong here.

Peete, I guess i'm right about it no? With your name I just can't imagine to be wrong :)

Good luck to both of you.
And Colda, I tried to hack the system to remove your SchoolDays entry, but couldn't do it. You'll have to work hard to make this one up :)

Wu, stop telling people we are in Switzerland or nobody will support us, although we could let slip that the most popular destination for Swiss emigrants is Canada :)

My implied lines is doing well too, but I didn't get anything in to poverty.. had no ideas at all, and simply ran out of time. However, my October Free Study is waiting in the wings, and Music and whatever open challenge is next are definites.

Ahh, not entering a challenge incurs a penalty of -2.5 from your average score ;)

LOL.. nowayman.. I left a clause in there saying at least one challenge a week. Besides, I didn't really do it on purpose.. I very seldomly miss a challenge, but things just got away from me for this one.

No worries :) I struggled to come up with something for this one too - nearly all the idea I had were very cliche.

My free study is done and entered, not sure on music yet though

In my 'Groove Back' thread, I offered either of you a side bet, perhaps based on average score from now till end of year (since I have so many more entries and it's harder to make my average move), but since Artyste won a red, I'm a little intimidated...

NOT!

Colda.. well, here's your official "Get out of Music Free" card ;)

I entered 'Music' but I'll use that card for 'Bizarre Nature' :)

Update

Artyste: 5.5889
colda: 5.4671

ok, I'm starting to get a bit worried now ;)

Big congrats on your double whammie ribbons on the front page! I was really pleased for you when I noticed that there was another 'Masters Challenge', and then I read the 3 ribbons required bit - unfair!

I'm hoping that the tortoise might catch the hare in the end, my free study, poverty and music entries look like they will all push my average up a bit :)
