Competition: Heavyweight Denim Championship Of The World 2011/12

ok, so this is like an entry fee for the contest,right? who doesn´t pay can´t compete?

will you update the list of the participants, so we can see who aleady paid?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

yes....see it as an entry fee....good idea! 4$ is fair

[Megatron1505]

Nope, totally voluntary, I wont force anyone to do anything. However, if we cant get $100 from over 30 baller denim fiends I will completely lose any remaining faith which I have in humanity

shit just got real

I don't see why you wouldn't make the contribution mandatory. You'll probably weed out the uncommitted quickly that way and honestly I'd be frustrated to see someone who didn't throw 400 pennies down walk away with the belt.

payment sent, you're all going down.

[Megatron1505]

I don't see why you wouldn't make the contribution mandatory.

Because I trust that people will do the right thing, and if they don't they can live with the knowledge that they are a cheap ass mutha

BTW, that Oni patch is still the most bad ass patch in denimland.

[laxlife1234]

I payed my dues

Now I gotta try and get enough money for those SG's...

quick question re: people entering with more than 1 pair - at the end of the contest will both submissions be judged? Obviously splitting your time between 2pair will put you at a disadvantage but im tempted to dual-compete with x634x on the off chance that falling down snowy mountains would make up for the other 75% of the year when they are unwearable.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

well I guess I'll split it 50:50. Of course that is a disadvantage..but hey, I don't think I will win anyway

[Max Power]

Payment sent! Thanks James for this wonderful support!

To be honest, I could care less about winning, what I want is to challenge myself to wear a pair of jawns for 2 years straight so I can be dedicated to it, and so I can have a sick ass pair of jeans.

Yep, you can enter both for judging if you like, but dividing your time will probably put you at a disadvantage anyway. Only you know how hard you can wear two pairs of jeans over a 2 year period.

Payment sent..

IH666S due in tomorrow.

Anticipation.....

entrance fee sent

[farmer]

Missed out on this whole thread until now. Would of liked to give you guys one more "competitor" Could use some heavier weight denim for work this time of year too. Look forward to the updates.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you can still join man. just put on some unworn heavy denim!

[ThinFinn]

so every contestant can join with MAX 2 pairs of denim which have to be stated before 01/02/2011 (=02/01/2011) as well as on the mainpage so that there'll be no one that comes up with a new pair (maybe his 2nd pair then) after some like 5months in, and want to proceed with these?!

am i right on this gentlemen?...

[ah_long]

hey.. could we make something to commemorate this?

a t-shirt.. or something.. I know a t-shirt was in various world tours.. could we do something for this?

[ThinFinn]

^now a t-shirt of this comp.would def.be outta this world...

maybe beats (or sb.else!) could contact jimmyc bout this.

[Guest nooblet333]

tshirts sounds good!

From keeping tabs on this whole thread, that is what I perceive the definition of the deadline to be.

[ah_long]

or we could have obbigoods fab something small up? key chain.. sth.. I'm sure most of us won't mind paying a little but for something exclusive...

[Tyler-m-]

I think it should be something leather, seeing as tho it will age nicely along with our jeans. I think a nice natural veg keychain would be nice as it would get dyed from our denim after a while. of coarse we would all pay to cover the costs

[Guest nooblet333]

How about both ^^ haha

[SNg]

Sent the $4 payment!

[Max Power]

I like the idea of a shirt or something else memorable as well. As long as the design is smart and not consisting of pictures of bodybuilders, sumo ringers or the like...

[ThinFinn]

@Ronaldisch:

What's your tagged size on the BeatleBusters (IHxB01) mate?

[Megatron1505]

If anyone wants to contact JimmyC, or James, about something commemorative that would be cool.

As for entry definitions, the start date of your denim is firm (nothing prior to 01/12/10). If a person wants to disadvantage themselves by adding a second pair and not starting them until August or whatever...it's their funeral, so long as they're bringing something to the party prior to that.

This is a 24 month contest, and we're not asking you wear the jeans every day for 24 months, so if you decide you're not going to wear them until later....well it's your time that your burning, but it's no different to someone who started in December rotating their heavies with two other jeans in terms of actual wear time.

Hope that was clear...probably not :confused:

[Guest nooblet333]

So we can start them now? since my samurais are coming in tomo!!
