The Wiz and the Challenge

[kewlJ]

Finally, something pretty interesting at WoV.

Check out his VP speed challenge.

What is interesting about it?

As the "shooting" thread veered off topic today, towards discussion of gambling related sites, I made reference to this exact thing. This competitive side of many on these sites. Everything and I mean everything is a "pissing contest". It's like perpetually being stuck in third grade. And Mike takes it to the extreme....the food eating contests come to mind.

So tell me what benefit there is to this contest? How does anyone benefit by it?

I want to play as quickly as I can play and still be accurate because.....that is how you maximize profits. Take profits out as this silly contest does and for what? I don't get it....maybe it's me.

This takes me back to that "goofy" rope climbing contest with Joshua Chan, at the purchase of Woo/wov. Everything a competition? This guy Shackleford must be a real hoot to live with. I can see it now....the dinner challenge in the Shackleford home....first one to finish dinner while riding backwards on a unicycle is king of the Shackleford mountain for the day.
