We'll probably both lose and Tracey will win. :)

Personally, I think that's hilarious... Just hope at least ONE of the other family members decides to root for YOU (you listening, Jeff?) or it'll be a long, lonely week for you :-)

Oh, dear, worry not. That Grunge thing? Only happens every three years. I promise. Check my record if you don't believe me! :-) It'll be a good match!!

Lol. As weird as it sounds coming from me, I hope so too... I have someone who is willing to do a shoot with me for the next nude challenge. We have already spoken about it!

Have no fear (ok, a bit of fear). My average is 4.6 because, strangely enough, most of the time my score is there, thereabouts, or below. I have been thinking about spoiling it all by making an effort though.

Looking forward to it.

I smell a rat here! where is the adjudicated video of the draw Paul?

Ha! - the draw is done by using your average scores backwards so the least significant digit becomes the most significant and then ordering that list.

You'll see that for my match our two least significant figures are the same and that has led to the pairing. I can't manipulate it.

I did manipulate two of the triplets though to take into account that one of the participants in each triplet might not play. Other than that, the numbers mean the list orders itself.

Ah! yup, remember you posting that at the start (I always wondered what RTFM meant lol)

Heh. It was I who did up the draw. Paul invented and validated it.
I can offer you my credentials if necessary!

I just checked Deb and seeing that 6.5 in your last challenge, I'm toast! :-)

Yeah but his starting average is .47 higher than yours. If you can pull off a 6.1 then he needs a 6.6, roughly, to beat you. It's a doable proposition :-) Fight, fight, fight!

I've got a tough matchup. I'm going against davidw his avg is 5.5 but looking at his work he can easily crush that. My advantage is that my average is terrible and I've been better than my average by about .7 in my last five challenges. Still going to be tough.

I was under the impression it was starting with THIS week's challenge - which would be the card challenge. I thought that was why the pairings were announced in advance... oh damn, if that's the case i'm gonna get slaughtered meanwhile my card entry is over a full point above my average...
Should've read the OP better, it says "for the challenge announced at rollover tonight"....damnit
oh well, you'll likely have an easy win Mrchhas

Just to clarify, is it only the results on the Upside Down Challenge that will be used to judge the results and not other challenges we are currently entering. Sorry for being dumb!

Hey, don't be sorry, we all make mistooks ;)

And yes, just the upside down challenge average is counted for round 1.
