It's been talked about by virtually all top level speedrunners. "How great would our lives be if we were paid to do this?" were cries uttered from the depths of our parents' basement. Well now is your shot!
Here is how it will work. People will post their offers in the form of (future achievement) (restrictions) ($cash incentive.) Any player who gets that achievement will be owed the incentives from whoever offered them within a reasonable amount of time. As with any elite bet or loan, those who do not pay in a reasonable amount of time will be banned until they have paid their debt. This reasonable amount of time will be decided by a panel of judges including but not limited to Axel Andersson, Tyler Wishall, Axel Zakrisson and Jon Bearder.
Fine Print:
-Yes you can remove your offer but this must be done clearly in a separate, unedited post from your original offer. All cancellations must be at least 24 hours before the WR of which the incentive was offered is achieved. In other words, if John F. offers $1500 on a Dam A 0:52, then removes his offer on July 14, 2011 at 4:16pm GMT, but Dam A 0:52 is achieved by someone on July 15, 2011 at 2:37pm, John F. owes the person who achieved Dam A 0:52 $1500. Video proof must be released before the 24 hour time period to receive cash incentives.
- Offers can be player specific. For example, Steven L. can offer Streets 00 Agent 1:55 (David Clemens) (â‚´150000.00) if he wishes to do so. Offers can also be player exclusive, for example, Gregory Q. can offer Streets Agent 1:12 (NO RAYAN I.) $150 where the $150 is given to the first player other than Rayan I. to achieve said WR.
- All WR achievers must have available a reasonable way to be paid, including but not limited to PayPal, Pokerstars account, home address to be mailed a personal cheque, money order or banker's draft, etc. Lack of available methods to be credited may result in a fair loss of all or some offers.
- Minimum incentive is $1. No maximum incentive however large, unpaid incentives could result in fraud charges and other legal investigation.
- If a WR of which incentives have been paid is proven to have been faked at a later date, whether it be video editing, gamesharking, emulator, etc, the money will be owed back to those who offered the incentives at par + the annual rate of interest of the banks in the country of which the incentive giver resided in at the time of original payment. For instance, if Malcom X achieves Facility A 0:44 and is paid $100 from an American and $300 from a Brazilian, but the Facility A 0:44 is proven to be fake 8 months later, then Malcom X owes the American [(the interest rate of American banks for the 8 month period)*(100)+100] and the Brazilian [(the interest rate of the Brazilian banks for the 8 month period)*(300)+$300.]
- Unless otherwise specified, all incentives are in units of the local currency of the offerer. Europeans offer in Euros, Brits offer in British Pounds, Americans offer in U.S. Dollars, Canadians offer in Canadian Dollars, Japanese offer in Yen, etc. For ease I will paste all typographic currency symbols here; : ฿, ¢, $, €, Æ’, ₲, â‚´, â‚, £, ₦, Â¥, â‚©, ₪,â‚®
I will keep this post updated with all current offers and their proof if and only if said proof is not in this thread.
