Me and my roommate suggested a bet last night.
Starting Sunday when we wake up we are going 1 week with no internet at all. No web browsing, no IM, no torrents, no porn, nothing. For the sake of our grades, we allow email checking, and the school’s blackboard site/teachers websites but other than that all other sites are off limit.
The winner gets the next month’s utilities paid for them, and if we both make it then we just get our money back. The utilities average around 60-80 dollars a month so it is a substantial amount.
The problem is that my roommates internet addiction lies in his need to constantly his email on his crackberry, whereas mine is these *edited* forums. Since we are allowing the checking of email for school purposes, I feel that I’m at the disadvantage.
My question is this, If I convince him to disallow checking email on his crackberry should I accept the bet? I mean that is 80 dollars I will not have to pay. I just feel like I’m getting the short end of the stick on this one.
Set your options so that wcugaming sends you responses to all and everything. That way you can still keep up with community and technically participate because you are accessing it via your email.
And if he calls foul on that, then call foul on his crackberry. Problem solved
