Initial weigh in! Guest host - Bob Loblaw!


In the spirit of The Bob Loblaw Law Blog*
("Why should YOU go to jail for a crime someone else - noticed?")

Tundra Bob brings you the
 Big Boisterous Blubber Battle – Dysfunctional Edition!

I still have not received initial weights from everyone who said they wanted to do it – but I can’t wait forever, so here they are.

Take a peek at your competition.  Hopefully you can find your ID # that corresponds to the weight you sent in – that will be your official “Blub Number.”  Next Monday I will also show the percentage of weight lost so you can keep following that.  If something does not look right (technically) in the table – let me know.

If you have a scale that is in tenths of a pound – go ahead and send me the weight, including the tenths of a pound.  I think most scales do that these days.  If there are a lot that of you do not have a scale that goes to tenths then I will probably round all the weights.

Next Monday e mail your weights to me and hopefully I can have them all posted by late Monday evening.

Also – please give me some feedback on awards/incentives.  I have heard NOTHING!  Throw me a bone here!  The competition we did last year everyone gave $20.00 and the pot went to the winner.   If that is what you want to do let me know or if there is another way… let me know that too.

Will post on Tuesday Evening

A couple of people asked to wait a day for them to get their weights to me - so, I will post the beginning weights on Tuesday evening.

It looks like most people would like to have a reward for the winner.  I am new at this - any suggestions on how to do this?  You can post your comments to my via e mail or at the bottom of this entry.

Thanks and Good Luck!

Game On!

The time has come for our competition to start!  The initial weigh in will be on Monday November 29!  Please answer the poll quesitons on the right side of this blog >>>>>
Just a few reminders...
 
 
  • Every Monday is weigh-in day. Email your weight to Tundra Bob.   The earlier I get your weigh-in results the quicker I can update the spreadsheet and post it on the Blubber page.
  • Please try to weigh yourself on the same scale every Monday.
  • I will post the results on this Blog on Mondays (late) or Tuesdays – depends on when everyone gets their weights in.
  • I have not heard back from many people about the reward for winning this.  Please let me (Tundra Bob) know if you want a reward tied into this.
  • If you do not submit your weight more than one time during the competition you will be disqualified.
  • If you have any photos you would like posted on the blog please send them to me.  (e.g. before and after, the ordeal, etc.)
  • Each participant will be assigned a number as some people are not comfortable revealing their weight at this point. When you email me just write, for example, #3 weigh in at 170.4
  • I looks like it will be a long winter up here in Alaska – I hope weather is more inviting for loosing where you are at.
  • This competition is open to all family and friends – spread the word so we can get plenty of people involved.
 
I think that's it!  Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.  I look forward to hearing from you all Monday morning! Be sure to check back here for the initial weigh in results so you can size up your competition!
