No sir, you are wrong, I never had the intention of not paying up, I just had to deposit money on pokerstars which couldn't be done instantly

who are you to question my integrity anyway

I didn't think I'd need to clarify that Pennoyer obviously won't win this contest...

Either way if anybody has an idea of what wording to use to describe that you can't cheese every game, let's say like 50%+ ? I dunno.... I mean just don't play ur games thinking "OK I NEED TO WIN AS FAST AS POSSIBLE" I want someone who's gonna play and improve at the same time, I think anybody who manage to win this challenge should be somewhere near the top of the ladder at the end unless he's mentally retarded...

I just don't want this to be a contest that consists of who will execute 7 rax reaper, 7 pool and proxy gate 3000 times in a row, nor do I want it to be 2950 either
just play NORMAL, cheese should be defined as games you AIM to win under 5 minutes and if it fails you insta leave
+ Show Spoiler +
is it still that hard to understand?

Now I don't want anyone to come and tell me I have no intention of paying up and bla bla bla, there's a reason the mod note is there, also I haven't changed any rule with this post, I just tried to clarify things a little bit
The way you describe it... set some minimum average game length required? (eg: ~10min) You can use sc2gears to analyze the replay pack for average length, and manually check some replays at random, to ensure there's no falsification. Also, if you want the player to have improved, you could use sc2ranks's history to check if their bnet rank has improved with some required factor in the long run. You could specify the requirements quite precisely, if you wanted.

Why is there an end date, by the way? If your true goal is to inspire people to improve with quality play on the ladder, perhaps they should not be rushed?

Well I figured 6 months was enough for someone who plays a lot to get 3000 wins with games of an average normal length

If there was no end date I would feel it isn't so much of a contest anymore, there has to be some sort of difficulty imo

sigh, you're going to embarass yourself by doubting my integrity, I'm a pretty stand up guy, just drop the subject and ignore this contest if it doesn't please you, a few people are going to compete, and if someone makes it following the rules then he's going to get paid

sounds pretty simple to me

The replay rules and cheesing should be cleared up. It wouldn't be fair to some one who made a serious effort only to be DQ to some subjective as hell rule. sc2ranks shows people have already made it to 1000 wins.

I am confident the challenge of Fayth is serious and he will pay whoever completes it. however I find this challenge to be a little disrespectful for the challenger. that is about 3000 wins, let's say you are a damn good player it will take you at the very least 4000 games in just 6 months, which is an awful lot. it is dedicating yourself 100% of your freetime to complete the challenge...for 6 months. thats pretty astraining. for this elapsed time you don't play for fun obviously and you are not working which would take a month to get this money.

being obscure is good since terms can be reworded to dq any future contenders.
but props to fayth on saying american dollars. I really thought he was gonna say monopoly dollars.

Do you realize you're alone in here thinking I'm some sort of scammer or whatever it is that you think of me?

Also if someone has a better idea as to how to make that no cheesing rule very much clearer and not "obscure" feel free to PM me and I'll change the wording

no I don't think you are a scammer at all. I just think you are a joke who doesn't follow through and I feel bad for everyone who are actually trying thats all.
