It's time to start the next and possibly last challenge. We have time for a one week or a two week challenge, I’d like some input on what people would like and the prize to choose from. If I start the challenge today we can do a two week challenge. So we need to make some quick decisions on what prize and people need to sign up quick to fill up the challenge so it can launch.
The challenge needs to end by 3/14/08 so we can no longer do a 2 week challenge. So, I started a 1 week challenge with the prizex of 1600 MS points.
Join the Challenge!!

I don't care about the prize, I just join them to increase the number of players so the people competing get a better prize. Reality is that you can only make a serious shot at one and you're not going to win any others.

I'm with taintedzodiac on this one - I mostly join them to increase the prizes (and comradery). I've pretty much depleted my chances at the big prize having competed in all 4 thus far. I thought I was going to pull through on Goozex Gamer Challenge IV, but klipt game me the smackdown with his prolific 2006 sports game run in the end.
All in all, these are fun.
My vote is for the Best Buy gift card, because you can usually find points or Live memberships cheaper.
I'd vote for 4000 Microsoft points, though it depends on if I get my wireless adapter in time...
My vote would have to be for the BB card or the M$ points. I could use some free Rock Band DLC. I thought I had a shot at that last challenge too. Then you guys went from down a thousand to up a thousand and so I took a knee and ran out the clock. It was fun, even if King Kong wasn't all that great.
King Kong... Heck, I played Ratatouille. Not good.
Wow! I got my Wireless Adapter from Microsoft today (MAD fast shipping), so I'm in, once I set up my Live account.
Lets get the sign ups going!!!
I've still got a week left in my current challenge, or else I'd join up.
We need three more people to sign up so we can get the challenge started.
Can you sign up if you only have a 48 hr code? I would love to sign up, even if I can only play for 2 days out of the 2 week challenge.. >< *raises hand* I'm a nub, please no chairbashing
As long as you are a "gold" member when you sign up you can participate. I'm not sure if you'd be disqualified if you were not a gold member at the close of the contest or not, but we always welcome as many that can join to do so.
We need two more people to start the challenge, please sign up, we would like to start the challenge tonight.
