    The best. He works out of Liberia. Guy named Chuck Schick. Used to be a lawyer. He is running a L'Oreal Liquidation sale this week I think.

    Chuck Schick? No shit!

    Clerked for a judge in south Florida if I recall. Hell of a guy. Good to hear he's doing well.

    Haven't seen Chuck in ages. Last time I ran across him was back in the 80's when he was clerking for some stuffy small town judge and trying to pass the bar.

    That seems wasteful, I would probably just split time at each one of them.

    Lets just say someone actually wins in this pool. Do you really want to exchange whatever perceived increase in odds you may enjoy (almost completely negligible) for the potential legal and fiduciary burden of administering 1 BILLION DOLLARS among a community of dirtbag skiers (hell on Earth)? Just some free advice thats worth what you paid for it

    he should just buy the tickets himself and when he wins post his address and we can all show up and reveal ourselves and he can pay us according to our value. no negative values are allowed, of course.

    If the increase in odds of winning is negligible (it is), the increase in odds of having to deal with that shit is also negligible. Besides, this is your thread. You'd be named in any legal recourse deemed necessary by said dirtbags' counsel.

    just post how many players are in this pool by 7:00 p.m. EST and PM the participants the same with a copy of the tickets be clear on dividing the prize less a 10% administration fee for you Mazerati for organizing this honorable long shot thing

    it should be only $2.00 per Mag as not to create a shit storm of possibilities of who gave more
    I'm in if this is Ok

    i really want the pool to happen, the pool to win, and then the administrator to abscond with the ticket/winnings and a long protracted legal battle based on tgr forums to entertain us for years.

    PayPal contains an option to send money to friends/family. Use that. It'll be a flat $2.00 within the US; no clue about international fees and no clue about play rules for non-citizens. There is no administration fee or fee of any other kind. Surely if a group of lunch ladies can make this happen, a group of reasonably well educated outdoor enthusiasts can make it happen. Or not.

    Seeing the math on Facebook postings- they claim 300 mil US citizens, each gets 4.3 mil- when in fact it is $4.33 dollars each- enough for a coffee or 2 or cheap beer or maybe 2 if it is happy hour. Got to watch out for that new math...

    You're just a butthurt Seattle fan right now. But if you're part of a pool that wins $1.3B, you could be a butthurt Seattle fan with your own suite.

    I'll go ahead and add you to the list.
