Following Coco's suggestion (which seems to have been deleted) we will be starting up this year's CONTEST. It will be the fifth edition I believe.

Last time saw good participation all around and quite a few people becoming Masters and Mistress of their Domains.

Some of you, very few though, may be wondering what I'm currently talking about. If you don't, I am sad for you, but I offer the following link to help:

http://en.wikipedia....iki/The_Contest

In summary THE CONTEST tests your will power and self control. This CONTEST is about not doing anything which you may think is incredibly easy, but as the past few editions have shown that is far from the truth.
This is not for the weak nor the sane.

I should also state that there are some House rules. They are:

1. There will be a cut off date for sign ups. This is to avoid late comers having a 1 or 2 day advantage over the people who are signed up.

2. This will be an abstinence contest, which means sex is also out, this again to limit the unfair advantage of those who do not need to self service themselves. So if you have sex, you lose, but we'll be happy for you.

3. Depending how long THE CONTEST lasts I may, as Rodeo did, add a cut off date to the THE CONTEST.



This opening post will contain the list of contestants (both in and out) and will be updated accordingly by me every 24 to 36 hours.



The start date is the Tuesday the 5th of July, which means you have till the 4 th to sign up.
If you want to sign up clearly specify it in your post, since some times people said they had, but the ambiguous statements as to their entry had left them on the way side.

Good sign up: "Hey, I declare my entry into the contest" or "Sign me up". In bold please.

Bad sign up: "So this is what the contest is about. I see, well I may give it a go."


I will be participating yet again to keep my original title that I've had since the very first CONTEST. I do not intend on losing it. Usually Ment and Tiste are good competitors.

So if you think you can keep it in you, if you think you can hold out, that you can ignore the gutter in your mind and that you have mastery of your Domain then step up to the Challenge!

Also: puns and innuendos are encouraged, you can also use the flirting thread in an attempt to undermine your opponents.

*The Shamed - for those who, shall we say, 'help themselves'

**The Dismissed - for those who fail honourably, ie with someone else - random hookup or long term partner, whichever.

***The Legendary - for those who fail via a spectacular method. For instance, whilst joining the mile high club. Obviously the decision as to whether you are dismissed or legendary should be decided by those still in the Contest.

Notice:
The cut off for sign up is now Monday the 4th of July.

Being in a relationship kind of prevents me from entering this as I'd face a bit of flak for not doing certain things with my significant other, especially with our 3 year anniversary coming up.

That said, good luck to all involved!

see, we usually, do this in the spring, with exams and stuff to keep me distracted. this time it's summer, i'm currently bored out of my mind waiting for work to pick up and once it does, there will be even more..temptations.


but, on the other hand, there's a (shared) title to defend.

I'm out.

I'm available however to entice our contestants with tasteful yet lewd pics and videos encourage our contestants to remain chaste.

@ Bent: you have a younger wife, why?
