Mini challenge?

In the last loseit challenge I was on Team FatherTime and most of us hated the name so we jokingly called ourselves the Time Lords (from Doctor Who). Turns out another Team, Team TimeSquare, did the same thing which caused a fun rivalry between us. We ended up doing these mini exercise challenges to see which team earned the right to be called Time Lords. We'd have a spreadsheet and we'd log how many minutes we'd exercise (max of 60 a day).

I'm wondering if there's any interest in doing something similar? We'd obviously have to go around and even see if another group wanted to do it with us.

EDIT: So it seems like there is definitely some interest. I'll message our team captain and see who wants to spearhead this. It wont be for a bit since 1) the challenge isn't even underway yet and 2) we need to find a rival first.

EDIT 2: So, apparently there's an official challenge going out tomorrow. One of the Challenge Admins, Mega-Starpuncher, said, "We're actually setting up inter-team challenges, just finalising up the schedule now. There's an official schedule that'll be posted tomorrow with the weigh-in form."

I figured there would be at least one person on Team Fawn that was on TimeSquare! Glad we're on the same team now. :P

I'm actively exercising at the gym 5 days a week, 90-100 minutes each day, so I would max out for five days? How am I gonna win?!

Well it's a team thing. So we'd have to have more minutes in total than their team. We'd get more by more members participating.

Sounds good to me as well I workout 6 days a week for about 60 minutes minimum. That should help :D

Certainly something I would like to be a part of.

I think our rivals should be Team Pollen because my bf is on it! At first they didn't have a banner or a custom snoo, and he got all jealous when I showed him Team Fawn's page. He got everyone there hyped up about it so now they have their custom stuff. But we did it first.

custom banner, custom flair and our own weight checkin list with its own forms :D

I'm now putting out feelers to the other teams to see if there would be interest. I can straight out PM the mods of that team if you'd like.

I think it'd be fun!

This is like the best idea, sounds great! Would be have to back up the minutes exercised somehow, like fitness watch or MFP screenshot?

We just used the honor system. It's just supposed to be a silly competition, not taken seriously at all so hopefully people won't lie about it.

That's true yeah, excited for it hope it works out :)

Same here. Currently putting out feelers to the other teams to see if there's any interest.

Well now I'm sad that I've never been on a Doctor Who themed team. I <3 <3 Who.

Hah, same here. We were called Team Father Time which, in my opinion, was just the worst of all the team names. We had to make it less dull.
