    OK, so my idea wasnt going to work :(

    However, thanks to the ingenious mind of Uropachild, it has morphed into something that might be of use to everyone.

    Obviously a lot of people in the challenge will be having websites for various things. How about we set up a Directory of all the sites owned by Dribblers? That way, when fellow dribblers need something, they could check the directory for it and buy from a fellow challenger.

    Is there any demand for this? I dont mind setting it up, but it will take second priority to my Matched Betting website. I'd only do it if there is enough commitment from everyone to help each other out.

    At the very least it would increase traffic to each others websites, which means more clicks, better page ranking, more links, clicks on adsense, etc

    You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it. This signature is here as I follow MSE's Mortgage Adviser Code of Conduct.

  • Betmunch, great minds and all that I was going to say something along the same lines - in addition I think it might be worth having a resource list online so that if anyone needs any information eg spreadsheet and such rather than going through the whole thread they can just go to a single page and get what they need. Something that I am really happy to sort also.

    The only other thing I wanted to say as I am about to disappear for the rest of the day is that I wish everyone a happy, fantastic, money making 2011 and also the very best of luck for this challenge. One sleep and then game on 2011!!! Here's to us making it to £11,000
    10K 2010 challenge £3202.59/£10000
    11K 2011 challenge: £1023/£11000
    12K 2012 challenge: £5896.33/£12000
    £2021 in 2021 challenge: £605.02/£2021
    Debt free wannabe: £24695/£24695 - Debt free date: November 2021

    I'm going to try for this challenge. I don't need the full 11K (although it would be nice), but my DMP has ~£9k on it, so I'm going to try my hardest to clear those debts this year through any extra income I can find.

    Heres hoping

    OMG i have a bid on ebay on the first thing i listed:T I feel sick to my stomach and i have 3 watchers lol who havent bid. I dont know if i can cope with 9 more days of this, can i change a listing duration once it is live?

    You can't make any changes to the original description/details once a bid has been made, only add to it separately. No changes at all can be made within the auction's last 12 hours.

    Also, the listing cannot be ended by you within the last 12 hours.
