March 2017 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Sealing the wound with CA should only be a half point deduction.

 

Also @cmorris357
So far...

CA - half point
Suture - full point
Sutures (more than three) - two points
More than finger tight, use of wrench or socket - full point
Adhesives - DQ

I can tell you right now, based off of my personal tastes, there are some underdogs who have a real shot at this. I can also tell you that there are a few that while I do like using them, they are sort of just filler considering the competition. You might be able to guess which ones they are. Or not. So there really isn't a bad pick in here.

 

Today:

Barbasol Red
Magic
Shark
Alum
Veg

 

Yes, you must actually be driving the vehicle while shaving yourself. Otherwise it's just too easy.

 

Bonus if simultaneously texting. Coffee optional.

 

Double bonus if it came out of a cow pasture.

 

To count, coffee must be at least 185 F. No lukewarm crap.

 

I have a few favorites in there. I'll narrow it down before the deadline.

 

That pasture where the college kids gather mushrooms?

 

How about this? I will shave with a merkur futur while driving on a gravel road in a pickup.

And I am in for the bolt thing.

 

So you can trip balls while the tetanus kicks in?

 

I'm in for number 8, the Jayaruh 400 24mm Tuxedo with a score of 82.

 

Washboard or freshly graded?

 

Another brave soul. And the Futur only counts if it's on setting Neal.

 

Dairy farm sourced - add full point
Java>184.9f - add full point
Driving - add full point
Texting- add full point
Bail >$1000 - add full point

 

G.O.A.T. - if you use a Feather wide open.

 

Let me re run the scoring.

9 categories with a possible 10 point each, 90 total.

Every brush starts with a 5 in each category as a baseline. And moves up or down from there. I do not expect mega high scores, since we have so many kinds of brushes competing together, and once you award a ten, there is nowhere else to go. So consider that the brush I used today, and like a LOT only scored a 77/90.

 

When R we doing this? They're washboarded and frozen solid for another month, then pure mud for two weeks before we will see any blading.

 

Or the parking lot at a Phish show.
