CC Chris Ferguson Challenge Official Sign Up Thread

[Jurn8]

Everybody knows who Chris "Jesus" Ferguson is and what he accomplished is an amazing achievment but here on CC we would also like to turn firstly $0 into $1000 on our own however being able to do it as a community and a challenge amongst us would be even better so thats what we are going to do.
Looks like I have sort of nominated myself/been forced into it to run this challenge or sign up thread and come up with some little rules and guidelines for this challenge and to create a sign up thread to see how much interest we can get and by previous threads i think its going to be good so here are some of the rules and suggestions.

Rules

• Starting Officially on the 1st Sept - gives enough time for people to sign up, clear accounts if they wish and also to discover the thread.
• Start with a BR of $0 - $1 - you will be required to proove this before the star date, this will give everybody a fair chance starting from the same roll but exceptions could be made such as a roll of $1.05 put please PM if you want to take part and have a starting roll of over $1
• Aim is to reach $1000 - also with proof
• Any site can be used - its up to you which site you choose to use and this will be part of the challenge choosing the correct site. Also it gives us a wide field of players using any site.

These are the only rules you have to meet to be able to take part in the challenge.

Other Points + Suggestions

1. This challenge is a for fun/pride/bragging if completed and also a competition but i dont want this to get really serious and start arguements of people starting with a $1 roll more than you if you start on $0 n they start with $1 because at the end of the day if you were that good you should have been able to overtake them.
2. I would like a min of 20 players to participate because i feel then this will be a good challenge and also i can create leaderboards better.
3. Leaderboards will be done every 2 weeks and also monthly, threads will be created for you to post your current BR at. Member of the month awards will be given for the person who has increased most in BR and also for the person with the biggest session win or tourney win. Maybe Mods will provide a small prize say a few bucks but we will see if we are lucky.
4. Sub Forum/Sticky thread for the challenge?
5. Also anybody who is currently participating in the challenge on their own i know theres a few if they want to be in a seperate table i will also update their roll on the leaderboards etc and any support suggestions from them are welcome.
6. Does everybody want a blog page for this challenge ? Please say if you do when you sign up.

If you wish to participate please could you put your name down and the site your going to do this challenge at (Not compulsory but be good for comparing results) also proof you have a $0 - $1 roll.Any other questions or querys please PM me everybodys welcome and Good Luck!.Remember the blog page!

dont worry about your username on the site just your CC username but you will have to print screen or post a transaction history to show your roll is $0 - $1

Embarrassed to show that account! Oh well.

How to do a screenshoit.

Press "print screen" when you have the screen as you want it.

Then go into Paint in your accessories and follow the instructions I have given below...

 

[Steel007]

im lost so where do i post what? and where is the free roll?

 

[Dwilius]

I need to go busto soon to be eligible for this competition . Now, is playing in Cardschat freerolls allowed? That's like cheating, Ferguson never had that advantage . Good luck all, it would be neat to see someone make it.

I'm in Abdi122 Absoulte poker

 

[naruto_miu]

damn sry to double, but I really can't figure out the whole screen shot thing, sry, I really only have .9cents on that site though

 

[jdeliverer]

I'm in. I'll try it on full tilt. I doubt I'll be making anything over a dollar before September as I don't have much time for the rest of the summer, but hopefully I'll be able to get things rolling once the summer's over.

Proof of bankroll:

 

[hojediade]

I would love to try this but i can't allowed myself to play more than few hours a week, and as i feel this challenge i will need to play almost 5 to 6 hours a day to be able to reach it.
Afterall poker is not my job, but only a hobby to me.
Wish you all good luck anyway.

Hi Jurn8,
you are fast and motivated ^^
1 sept is ok for me, i 'm in on fulltilt and pokerstars.
Start with a bankroll of 0$-1$ : For me no problem, but a lot of players can't be part of the challenge .
(A Player with a bankroll of 100$ for example can have a goal of having 6.000$ or 10.000$ in one year, and maybe there are lots of players who have 100$ in their bankroll and they want to be compare each other)
So we can have a table with "NameOfPlayer/StartingBankroll/Objectives".
Let's start with your idea of 0$-1$ starting bankroll and let's see
I though about "D'wilius" who have to be broke to play with 0$-1$ players.
Maybe another thread with players who have a starting bankroll or we can add players with a bankroll? (can be interesting as long as we all know they starts with $$ in their bankroll)

Any site can be used : I use both full tilt and pokerstars, am i allowed? is it fair?

also with proof I will do its for fun only, i just want to be motivated to do this challenge ^^ (hmm, a real proof is really hard to check; it will be hard to check all people; for example a screen shot can be alterated.) hmm, For me; you can see sharkscope evolution because i will make only freeroll then SitNgo. Sharkscope : ListenMyMusic (fulltilt); Try Tea (pokerstars: no stats because i am new on PS ^^)

No need for your T6 username mate but just need proof that you have $0 - $1 in your account.

I will do my best too. I paly mostly at stars. went from 0 to a bit over $250 but since ....back to 0

So do you want to participate if so post a print screen or account info here to proove your starting balance.
Print screen tutorial is in the players intro part.

It's Ctrl+Alt+PrtSC on mine- and probably yours unless you have a Mac. Then, I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm in on Bodog. Fish

Embarrassed to show that account! Oh well.

$1.36 in your account is acceptable and will add you to the list your in mate.

I'll give it a shot at Ladbrokes or Carbon -- where are the best FRs?

Ok mate i wouldnt suggest Ladbrokes as its pretty tough, so carbon but when your done just a screen shot of your balance or account info will do.

I've basically been doing this all along, I only have .60 at pitbull right now

So do you want to participate mate ? you can if you want and proove your balance

i am in as hgadt under FTP. what proof is needed? i sit around 66 cents last time i checked.

Ok thats great, proof of your account balance either through print screen or transaction history.

Brilliant mate, please could you proove your account balance.

im going to do this at carbon. bbrat21

Please Proove your account balance.

Gonna try from FT....now remember, I have a day job!!!lol...my screenname is the same (slypnslyde) and I think I only have like .05...

I need to go busto soon to be eligible for this competition . Now, is playing in Cardschat freerolls allowed? That's like cheating, Ferguson never had that advantage . Good luck all, it would be neat to see someone make it.

[Jurn8]

UPDATES + CHANGES

Some new additions to the rules which have been suggested by Fishfishfish.

1. BANKROLL - Players can now participate using any bankroll, they may want to change their objective for example a player with a $100 BR may want to reach $1500 thats no problem and will be added to the list.
2. PROOF OF BANKROLL - Due to confusion and time taken to do this, i have decided to scrap this.

Now all you need to do to enter is to say what site your doing it on and your bankroll and your objective!!
