Given there's a few of us just recently single, I've got an idea for a bit of a test of will power. Remember that Seinfeld episode where they all have a bet on who can go the longest without wanking? Let's have our own LF competition.
Who'd be keen? If you're game, throw your hat in the ring by posting in this thread. Also give us an idea of your normal wanking schedule. Mine is once a day, sometimes twice.
Maybe we should have a male and female comp? Or all together? I don't care.
The rules
Competitors remain in the game so long as they abstain from any sort of contact with their genitals for the purposes of sexual pleasure. This includes any sort of pleasurable fondling, even if it does not result in climax. Should you find yourself absent mindedly holding/rubbing/stroking whatever (and I know this can happen) that's alright, as long as you stop immediately and the contact lasted no longer than a few seconds.
Should competitors engage in sexual activity with the oppositve sex (which includes anything up to and beyond digital stimulation) they will receive an "honourable discharge" (pun intended) from the competition. That is, they will be disqaulified but without the stigma surrounding a self-inflicted breach of the rules.
Upon sucumbing, competitors must report their failure in this thread. It will be recorded in the form guide below where their avatar below will be crossed with an "X".
Good luck and may the best man/woman win!
The competitors
Doesntmatter: Aspiring anesthesiologist and unwilling virgin with a dark side. 16/1 UPDATE: An absent room mate and access to XXX Pirate porn proved the undoing for this student comeptitor. Winding up in a respectful fourth place with a time of 5 days, 17 hours and 41 mintues. He just misses out on the podium but this young buck can hold his head up high.
Starbuck: Stylish yet baby faced art director from the Big Apple. 5/1 UPDATE: One of the competition favourites goes down with a distinctly lacklustre time of 2 days, 12 hours and 51 minutes. Alcohol seems to be a factor. The upset of the competition so far.
Cain: Intense, brooding, moralistic and outrageously judgmental. Be on the lookout for his self-proclaimed “iron will” 11/1
Lipp: Future architect with a cosmopolitan background. Looks quietly confident. 9/1 UPDATE: Our fourth competitor goes down after 3 days 4 hours and 4 minutes, blaming a combination of aching muscles and boredom.
Black: Forum newcomer and competition dark horse. 17/1 UPDATE: Disqualified after going AWOL. Black finishes without a time and without a placing.
Ladie Nisha: St Thomas live wire. Watch her torment her male competitors. 5/1 UPDATE: The one and only competitor to lose the competition thanks to a member of the opposite sex. Nisha, the second and last female competitor in the running, bows out with a time of 6 days 4 hours and 25 minutes. She's taking Bronze back to the Virgin Islands.
Kiechi: LF veteran and moderator and one of the first to throw his hat in the ring. 14/1 UPDATE: Kiechi goes down. The second competitor to bow out of the competition with a time of 2 days 11 hours 41 minutes.
Gribble: Though reluctant to compete, a recent drop in his libido might just give him the edge he needs. 18/1
Average Joe: Keen cyclist and a once-a-day man. Seems short on confidence in the lead up to the big event. 25/1. UPDATE: Joe goes down with a less than impressive time of 2 days, 2 hours and fifteen minutes. The first competitor to bite the dust and the competition's wooden spoon winner.
Charlie Boy: Competition host twenty-five year old Charlie Boy has been seeking solace recently in the bosom of the ever obliging women of porn after being dumped by his girlfriend. Is he ready to leave them behind? He thinks so. And despite wanking at least once a day since the first days of high school, the young Australian is brimming with confidence. 14/1 UPDATE: blue ball driven insomnia finally drove competition host Charlie Boy to breaking point. Lying in his bed at 2am, he heard the soft, siren call of the women of porn, rose, and relieved himself. He finishes in fifth place with a time of 5 days 12 hours and 28 minutes.
