Laying down December BOTP Challenge?

 Ok bear with me.......


I kinda missed the first half of the "BOTP celebration" promo due to other stuff but its got me a little more interested in playing some BOTP stuff in December as i wont be able to next year as i am switching to 98%+ cash games to get supernova elite.


I'm floating this basic idea to gauge interest , if one/lots of people are interested we can come to a concrete consensus and i will make an official thread for sign ups etc. 


Here's the general outline........


Each entrant donates $1,000.00 ( either entrants donate to eventual winner or the $ could be sent to a trusted/respected P5's member to hold).


we would work on the following BOTP divisions...

$1-$2.99 (Mercury)

$3- $4.99 (Mars)

$5-$9.99 (Venus)

$10 - $19.99 (earth)

$20- $49.99 (Neptune)

$50-$99.99 (Uranus)


I'm missing out the top 2 (Saturn $100-$299.99 & Jupiter $300+) simply due to traffic issues.


Each entrants best High orbit score for each division each week would be added together and each full week in December's scores would be added together to gain a monthly grand total.


( The past weeks best scores if they are top 100 are available to check for everyone via Requests/sit n go leaderboards)

If a players best score for a particular division isnt in the top 100 we can either agree they score 0 for that division or have another/the same middle man whom screenshots can be sent to (whatever any participants think would be best).


I'm neglecting the low orbits as basing anything on 20 games just increases variance.


If there are maybe 2-5 entrants then obviously winner takes all would be best but if a decent number are interested we could do top whatever % of entrants are paid.


1 more little twist , if a player breaks a division record (these are pusblishes on the BOTP / celebration , promo page)  then each other entrant pays them a set amount, Maybe $500? or whatever.


We could base our terms of "breaking a division record" on the scores posted on that page unless there is more up to date info available which i presume PS will update after the "BOTP celebration" ends next week anyway.



Any thoughts/interest?


P.S im not trying to hustle anyone i havnt played much BOTP before im like 70%cash/20%MTT/8% sng / 2% live player (roughly :p)


Just fancy a challenge before the long grind to SNE next year.


P.P.S As mentioned everything above is open to negotiation if people are interested in taking up the challenge.

Would consider for Saturn, Uranus, or Neptune. 

Also would only do if we had a holder, can't trust random people that might join with $1000-$1500.
