check out coinball.com for an example of how registering challenges might work
members can challenge one another, and the site records match stats
folks from PAPA swoop in and snatch up the results, add em to PARS http://www.papa.org/pars/

it's definitely word, being able to keep tabs on your record VS whomever
ya'll oughta have that going for yourselves

This looks like it could be kinda cool has anyone given this any more thought, this could be how we work in the title belt.

i looked at this and registered for the coinball board. while it seems like a cool idea to have ongoing specific challenges, and that would be a cool way to keep up some competition within the gang, there's got to be a way to make the computer do this for us so that i don't have to do any math. i'd definitely participate though, and i like the idea of challenges one on one in general.

the system as it's set up now seems similar to how yahoogames works or maybe how you figure out a golf or tennis or football ranking. it probably is a good indicator in the long run, but until all you have to do is punch stuff in and the program calculates all the results, i prefer good old fashioned betting for dollars head to head, with the "ranking" clearly indicated by who takes all my money...

I know a guy who knows php like the back of his hand if for some reason the site should need it

hmm-- what of it people? do we want to make the challenge belt idea connected to the official challenge rankings computer thing, which the IFPA uses? it would be cool if we could get some help from aaron's friend to make it work. i get confused about computer stuff, but if it were automated enough i would be into it. i really like the features we've added to the site for pics, avatars, links, the events calendar, and so on. i usually just need someone to explain to me how to use it first.

I also know nothing of computer code, but am excited to have an online program to keep track of my high scores and submit challenges. If anybody does know how to add something like this to our own site, that would be SWEET!

As the current belt holder, I only accept in-person or in-text challenges*. I don't want to have to boot up and log on in order to see who is trying to buy me french fries and beer and take me down. Come to me.

*I'm currently not accepting challenges in any form.

You're right! I forgot. But not because I'm scared... it's more that I got bored out of my brain by your weakness.

I still don't have the belt on my person, so we can't battle just yet.

And for the record, I'm really interested in eating one of those pumpkin shakes from Burgerville.

Good call.

It won't take much investigation to figure out the cause of your demise.

ROM you have no dedication, where weer you tonight? I thought you had your priorities straight? Apparently not. Do you even deserve the belt? I guess Thursday will answer it all.

Maybe you only do decent in tournaments when I'm around? Is that what you're saying? If so, how sweet! ;)
