Gotta say viraltouch is a good name for a troll.
Isn't there a rule here on TL that people need to show respect for the TL staff? Jinro's addition in the first post should be all the validation anyone needs. The discussion here is utterly pointless unless you enjoy silly people acting silly. Still, there's always blizzard official forums for that.

I'll guess that the average length of a game is about 12 minutes so you can fit 5 games in an hour if all goes well, meaning 0.66*5 = $3.30 hourly pay.
Don't fall for it guys! Work at McDonald's instead!

I think Fayth would pay up, it just to me it feels like it's impossible to actually win it, and by that I mean it's impossible due to the feasibility of the stipulations, and time constraints. Along with the amount of money being offered. It's just not worth it, I wouldn't recommend anyone attempt this, unless they wish to rape their social life, and job.
I suppose if you're a complete social reject, who is out of school, and leaches off their parents. Then this would be perfect for you. Just remember not to cheese for more than 50% of your games!

If you dont chese in one game you havent chesed in very game and thereby you are not breaking the rule, I know that he dident mean for it to be that easy, but he made a misstake by not clarifying the rule enough from the start and first did it a few days ago.
There is no point in haveing a time limit in a contest where you compete against others to get their fastest, its not like people will slow down if there wasent a time limit since they are already competing against others to get their first.
Its Fayth who made a misstake from the start and im one of those who think he should pay up, but I also dont think his going to since none will save that many replays. Fayth might have been legit in the past like Jinro said but by not acknowledge the misstake he made and not pay up if someone gets there then I wouldnt call him "legit".
Yes its nice that he "wants" to give 2,000$ in a contest like this, but it could have been done alot better to avoid all this.

lets see to get this achievement ur gonna have to cheese for about 6000 games. Is it worth to waste months of ur life? and ruin the sc2 experience, for 2k donation?
|
I seriously wouldve given this a shot if I noticed it when it started, damnit.
|
Wait, sorry how does this work with the reset, i tried ctrl + f'ing the answer, but can't seem to figure it out.
Edit: Oh shit, this started back in july lol. Has anyone come close to finishing it?

SO I was just curious if fayth is going to accept people who aren't cheesing every game but are doing something pretty much worse.
http://sc2ranks.com/ranks/all/all/1/all/wins/0
if you check that you'll see players massing tons of wins while staying at bronze as random, pretty obvious to see they're going for this.
however if you look at remind who is #9 you'll see he's much more deserving of it if he ever reaches it.
i don't know. maybe its an ethics thing but getting this while staying at the lower leagues would be easy as pie just time consuming, a real accomplishment would be getting it in a real league.

If you get to one thousand wins legit, I hope to God that you're in Diamond by the time you get there. It's up to Faythe, but I believe Diamond req would be a good idea.

I;m willing to bet those not in Diamond are doing really cheesy fast strats. Like I know that pennoyer guy worker rushes every single game--which wouldn't win according to Fayth anyway.

pennoyer already said he didn't want the money and had never heard of this 'contest' when he started doing worker rushes. he just wants to get the dark voice portrait as quickly as he can.

The problem with this contest is the new rules that were set. Some people claim that the participant is not forced to participate in this contest, so why are people complaining? Probably because it sucks to participate in a contest, and later find out that you arn't eligible to win, and you have wasted a lot of time. Some people claim Fayth just added the new rule a few days after the initial post, so why are people complaining? What if the participant spent a week grinding 12h/day before coming back to the site to check the post, finding out he isn't eligible to win, and has wasted a lot of time. Also, since a new rule was placed on, what is to stop Fayth from introducing another rule later?
Pennoyer says http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/forum/topic/608631178?page=2#26
I've already said I'm not entering this "contest." Even if someone wanted to award me anything I would tell them to donate it to charity.
Pennoyer is awesome, he deserves the money for a charity of his choice.

Sweet price but nothing I'd want to aim for really.
|
seems like you have to win 20 games every single day if you're starting now~
