AM online BBing show????

[MentalTwitch]

Well, i know a few other sites try/do this. I was thinking very basically,
-2 or 3 weight classes, 185-under, 185-202, 202+, or just 202 under/over.
-Set a date maybe 3-4 months in advance.
-Obviously honor system for wieght will be in play. A news paper would be required for the day of pics for verification.
-Maybe get a few companies to give prizes for top 2 in each class and maybe an over all?

I know its would be tough to take good pictures and look cut but thats all on you, so no complaining about lighting.

I think this would be cool cause theres alot of people on here and alotof people just do it to do it, why not compete a little?

Not sure if AM ever tried this but, toss in some ideas and input, maybe even if we dont get higher powers to lend a hand or companies to support us, just throw a thread out for it?

Peace.

 

[mindgame]

it will be a good idea but we need alot of peeps to be involved ya noe

 

[Ziricote]

I've seen it work on other forums to good effect.

I've also seen it not work on this forum before, although it wasn't any of the organizers fault.

 

[mindgame]

thats what im saying it can happen as long as everyone who wants to do it is going to do it like a real show and we have prizes and support for something like this. I believe we can do it over here.

 

[MentalTwitch]

Ok, well give me a few days ill see if i can get any "sponsors" even though they already are for AM. Ill see if anyones down for prizes. Ill have to contact mods also to see any limitations.
Ill have to put some "rules" and regulations together...

 

[mindgame]

true dat we shall be waiting

 

[MentalTwitch]

24 hits? Thats it? Come on AM. You all are doing all this work for nothing?(besides health and fun)

Ill keep things updated as/if it progresses.

EDIT- Dont let my sig fool you, i am little. 185 at about 10-11% BF maybe. Never competed. This wont happen right away, maybe months but you gotta have time to dial in and get ready.

ahhhh havent seen you around for awhile big N. Well, im just awaiting PM answer from Mod on the ok to do this and talk to companies. If they dont answer by next week ill guess they are indifferent if i set it up.

Consider this a bump.

I may have to drop this in the suppplement section to soon i think itll get way more attention there.

 

[mindgame]

sitting and waiting for the word

 

[hardknock]

sounds good, gives me more motivation to cut, eat big, cut, eat big...ahh hell, you know what im saying.

for sure. Thats kind of why i think itd be cool. This way you dont have to stress over getting to a show, timing so much, etc. Its just a chilled community, hopefully i can get some "sponsors" for the event.

 

[Ziricote]

Sponsors? That was the weak link the last time, have you got some sort of layout as to how you think this whole thing should roll? I'm interested, seriously, but also sceptical that it will be as good as it could be instead of turning into a waiting game that ends with everyone losing interest.

well yes i have a write-up done in Microsoft Word. Im awaiting the Mods reply just to see if there is any issues or questions they have. If they dont answer by next week, ill prolly start to contact reps and make a thread or 2 on it. I want it to run smooth. I wanted the mods involved so the threads could get locked and want to keep the useless chit chat to a minumum. Im still figuring out a few things but its not to hard.
Judging is the only thing im working on right now.

 

[futurepilot]

Im down, we could have open judging. Somehow each member gets 1 vote for each weight class, obviously no voting for your self.

Maybe restrict voting to members with over 100 posts. So people dont just create accounts to vote.

We could do best abs/bi's/legs etc.

 

[Norwegian]

Sign me up !

.. but beyond waiting to hear from sponsors and mods here, when did you think of this bb contest taking place ? August ? September ? random question ..

 

[MentalTwitch]

glad im not in that guys weight class....hahaha

Good to hear ideas, keep em' coming.
Still awaiting PM.

Peace.

Anxiously waiting to hear on dates and details...5'10 222 today:good:

 

[ITHURTZ]

Sure have a comp when I am not lean enough :numbered:

 

[MentalTwitch]

n ono no my friend. It will be months away for just that reason.
Ill post a regitrastion date. Then whoever signs-up will be on a list i make. 1 Month out i will PM all those Memebers to remind them of the deadline for pictures. I was thinking, late November but alot of people will be gorging on food during the holidays. Maybe 1 week before Thanksgiving? I havent a clue yet. There will be more threads posted on dates and asking opinions....still waiting mod PM, it would be nice to know im not stepping on toes or corssing lines form them....

Another thing...does anyone think it would be unfair that you have to have 150 posts by registration time? I just dont want a bunch of "new" people to do this.
Also, Judges if it is not a community vote, will have to have an upwards of 800 posts. I only want the vets able to judge.

Still waiting.
Still thinking of all fairness.
Be Patient
Most important....start bulking and be ready.

Peace.

Unless he falls ill, I'm pretty sure the Norwegian dude wins. Not trying to sweat the guy, but I haven't seen anyone on this board that comes close. Second place is cool though.

[TexasLifter89]

[MentalTwitch]

Yea never heard back from the mods. I will have sometime in the next few days to put something together so ill have an update soon.
Sorry it fell off, this thread didnt bring many in. But i know there are alot that would be willing.

Holy, That would be great if you wanna judge, but then you cant be in the show...maybe, we may set up weight class judges....we'll see what we can work up.

 

[TexasLifter89]
