How about ...

A bet on when the ATT forum gets to 1,000 members.

One bet cost £1, chose a date and the person closest to the date we get to 1,000 members has to sh*g a chicken - I mean takes all?

damn good idea ray.....

1 quid per guess

10% towards the server maintenance/running costs

the rest, goes to the nearest guess

potentialy a few 100 quid to some lucky bugger!

better odds than the lotto aswell  Grin

Is that ya b'day btk! And the year btk!!

Ya think we will get there by Nov 16 (2005 implied) !! lmao NO chance!

Now, now hold ya horses (as PVCMan would, say)....

This needs organising.....

1. WHO is going to keep track of bets placed? I say btk can do that job.

2. WHO is going to ensure payments (of £1) are made. I say btk can do that job.

3. WHO is going to ensure payments are held in an ESCROW? I say btk can do that job.

4. WHO will decide at what time on what date we actually reach 1,000 members? I say btk can do that job.

5. WHO decides who the winners is? I say I decide that.

All right, all right 20% to the server (otherwise known as the SS Christmas fund). Nope a good idea SS 10% to the server fund.

Come on chaps it's only £1 a go and with some 900+ that's nearly a grand - less whatever SS decides - well OK so you can win £2  Grin at least you have doubled your money.

AND, by the way Lectrician, no cheating - no deleting of cookie files and re-registering as we get close to the number and date OK?

I'd like to stick in another pound and take Jan 16th 2006.

I guess we could record all these on the calendar, since it gets used for not much else.
