Dear Chevra,
The "$90 for 90 days" challenge has had mixed success. My understanding is that no one made it to 90 days, but that some people were able to go further than they had in the past.
Here's another idea that I ran by Guard, and he said that we're welcome to try it.
I propose that we offer a "super-incentive" to someone to give them an
unusually powerful boost to get them to 90 days. Unfortunately, the Bill Gates foundation has declined to provide a $10 million mega-incentive,

so we had to come up with something else. For reasons that will become clear, the challenge would be called "Match, Double, Ninety!"
Here's how it would work:
1.) Guard would select someone who has had a hard time getting to 90, but is willing to set up numerous safeguards, give it a real solid effort this time around, and operate with complete integrity. The person should have between 7-30 days clean.
2.) If the person matches his/her previous record (but not less than 15 days, and not less than 7 days from the time the challenge begins), GYE gets $50-$100 ($10 per sponsor).
3.) If the person doubles his/her previous record (but not less than 30 days, and not less than 14 days from the time the challenge begins), GYE gets $125-$250 (including the money already received; that would be $25 per sponsor).
4.) If the person reaches 90 days, GYE gets $500-$1000 (including the money already received; that would be $100 per sponsor).
5-10 people would each agree to donate up to $100 to fund this challenge. The entire forum can root the person on as he/she works on each of the three milestones, which would be a tremendous Chizuk for all of us. Also, others will, hopefully, join in the challenge out of solidarity.
Please post below (or send me a PM) if you're interested in being a sponsor (maximum cost: $100).
If you're interested in being chosen for this super-incentive, please send a PM to Guard.
