Official FTOPS Contest

Admin note - This thread has been stickied to help the people running this contest with some exposure to grow the entry pool.  This is not, however, an official P5s contest, and P5s is not responsible for mediating any conflicts that may arise.  Good luck to everyone entering!

FTOPS Starts August 5th

$6,000 per 3 person team- top 8 per person (24 total)
$2,000 Singles- top 8 scores count

I will be holding, unless people are more comfortable with someone else holding.

We will be using CJM's scoring system, and I hope we are able to have him run this.

Singles

Depending on how many register I have a team and will do singles. 


Im saying this in hopes that others that are waiting until last minute to "see how many teams and who all is going to do it"...will say the same thing, that way we can get this going and get an idea of whats going on!

That is at least 4 teams, and I assume many for the singles too. Appreciate the posts, it will help build the prizepool.

chad speaks the truth here...cjm just wants his cut..he copyrighted the scoring system, so after using it, he is entitled to his cut

Anything you send to him would be by choice. I am personally going to ship a small amount prior to contest, because i appreciate the service it gives to me. If asking for 10%, that is hugely laughable. Scott Clements

this, cjms scoring system is worthless, literally stopped me from contests like this bc of the ridiculous tip expectations... just do PLB totals from ftops
