Default Prop bet idea : Volume challenge.

So... I need a motivator.

I find myself playing too much WoW and drinking too much when I could be putting in more volume. Grant it, this has kinda been a rough month, but, I still should be getting more serious about playing.

So, I'm looking to start a "claudioxcore getting Platinum Star" prop bet.

Bet would be for the month of July.

There are circumstances though.

1) If my bankroll goes bust, or I am unable to sell out my BAP, the bet is off.
2) Any real life important shit (family death, illness, shit like that), comes up, I am able to revert lost days to the end of the month.

Last month was the first month I ever got Goldstar, and I've already lost it this month.

If anyone would be interesting in taking action on this, I'm looking at getting action at 2.5 to 1 in my favor, with a max bet of $10 (You risk $25, I risk $10).

That being said, if anyone is interested, feel free to post here your wager.

You referring to my Mono? Mono is weird. You feel like shit for the first week, but after that, you feel normal. Maybe a little drowsy, but you're typically fine. The only thing is people can't drink after you, or make out with you. Lol.

I don't know...I think a break from the game to do other things you enjoy could actually be benefcial. Especially since I'm getting in on your next BAP, I'd suggest doing whatever helps you play your BEST. I'll take quality over quanity every time.

Absolutely no doubt, at the same time... I need to be taking this more seriously, and treating it like a job, and not a hobby.

If I wanna do this for a living, I need to treat it like a traditional job. I need to play 30-40 hours a week, and I need to sleep a normal sleeping schedule, and treat it like this is how I have to pay the bills.

I will of course leave myself time for leisure and me-time. But, at the same time, I really feel lazy and unmotivated.
