Yourself and one other random forum member have been chosen to compete in a duel to the death. There’s no getting out of it.
A coin is tossed and you get to choose the event, the duration of which cannot last more than one year. The event must produce one clear winner.
You cannot choose anything you’ve done as part of employment or any significant or specialized interest you have. For example, you can’t choose “Rebuild an engine.” if you’re a mechanic, or “Guitar Hero III on Expert.” if you can already five-star everything.
I’d pick something that contained a bit of everything - physical, mental, moral, with a bit of luck tossed in for good measure. I’d probably lose any one alone, but combined i think the overall average would push me a tiny bit ahead.
I was thinking that I’d like my chances in a cross-country race, where you start in Maine with $200 and have to make it to Seattle or something without buying any plane or bus tickets, etc. Yeah. That’s what I’d go with.
Do we get to know the identity of the person we are dueling before choosing the event? If it’s truly “random unknown QT3 forum member, all lurkers included” I’d pick any standardized test, SAT, ACT, heck even IQ and like my odds ;-)
