S24SU - Last Man Standing

[bricktop]

I'll have a look at it all tomorrow and get something set up. I'll probably start the actual competition in a couple of weeks to give everyone chance to get involved.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

I'll give it a bash.

 

[Teddy]

Not familiar either, but count me in if it funds this place.

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

I'm in, I've won every competition I've ever entered. The downside of that is that I had to lie about my age to a Radio 1 DJ as a kid to be old enough to go to a West End film premier and be on his breakfast show. Luckily he wasn't a paedo.

 

[Kelso]

Count me in

 

[Hugh Nitedite]

Owt for a good cause

The man from Del Monte, he says goo on den.

The rules will be as follows.

Tinsley Juniors?

Must've missed something. Off to review other thread.

 

[Rusty view]

£10 for me to go out in week 1 is a bit steep I think. (appreciate the sentiment of supporting the costs of this site though)

Is it ok if I pay you in person? I don't do Paypal.

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

You need a default team in case of postponement and is it all four divisions?

My bad just seen the postponed rule!

 

[South Bucks]

Just had a train of thought. With Foxy and Linz recently having some good news, and bearing in mind that this forum can't be cheap to run, how about helping to contribute some money to the running a last man standing competition with half the prize pot going to the winner, and the other half going towards the running of this site.

I would be happy to organize run the competition, and it would be a great way to help raise some running costs, as well as providing a good, healthy competition for all to enjoy?

Just a thought, is it worth considering asking some company like a brewery to sponsor S24SU and to give them a small strip at the top of the main page where there name is displayed but to have no editorial influence. If google, faceb*ll*cks and instagram are worth billions then the many thousands of views S24SU gets per day must be worth something to someone. Maybe this could be auctioned to the highest bidder.

 

[bricktop]

Up and running. Please see the other man standing for more info

Ur Bad again..see rule 5

 

[Snowman]

Eh?

 

[moDtheGod]

I am really interested in this but I am keeping my powder dry as the response so far appears lukewarm (at this admittedly early stage).

Or maybe everyone's emailed you but nobody's posted in here? How many entries so far?

 

[moDtheGod]

Apologies, I have now seen the other thread which must be the original one that seems to have garnered some interest. I'll drop you an email.

 

[bricktop]

There has been a few entities so far. I'm hoping to get it up at least 50 before the first weekend it is running to ensure a healthy prize for a winner and a healthy donation to the site costs.

 

[WF10BLADE]

Is this a pyramid scheme?

 

[boo radley]

Tinsley Juniors?

As above. ????????

 

[Sean Thornton]

As above. ????????

Edited now. Rules presumably copy and pasted.

 

[boo radley]

Edited now. Rules presumably copy and pasted.

Thanks Sean

 

[bricktop]

Yeah, the rules we're copied and pasted from a different competition that one of my mates was running in aid of a junior football club. So many thanks to the eagle eyed Sean Thornton may'be you would also like to join in now seeing as you have shown an interest in the original post.

As it stands in the first 24 hours it has been a slow start, and there have only been a handful of enteries, but I'm hopeful of at least 50 entries before the competiton begins.

Foxy Can you merge the threads please. Cheers.

 

[bricktop]

Good news is that it is all up and running and all the information is on this sticky thread.
