Jace's Race to Space Challenge!
{Navigation} INTRO | further details | SIDE QUEST | rules | JOIN ME | goals
{Intro} Okay... you're wondering what the heck I'm on
about. So, here's the scoop. I decided to challenge myself to see how fast I
could earn one million gold starting at the standard n00b level of gold (500g).
{Further Details} I decided to do this thing again to see if I could do it even faster this time. The first set of goals (in size seven font) are the originals. The readable version is my progress this time around.
{Side Quest} I have a vague side-goal of making some friends by doing this.
{Rules} I set out some rules for myself (in
order to keep this as challenging as possible):
1) I will not accept donations in my race to space challenge.
2) I will not sell anything which I currently own in order to obtain gold for my challenge (because that would be too easy).
3) I will not obtain Gaia Cash and use it as a means of gaining gold while I am on this challenge.
4) I will not open any sort of shop (art, writing, signs, Game Item, etc.) as a means to earn gold for the duration of this challenge.
5) I will not participate in contests in which I could earn gold for the duration of this challenge.
6) I will not use a mule account to farm gold for this challenge.
7) I will not hold a "panty auction" type of event as I construe this as a form of receiving donations.
8 ) I will not solicit any loans of any kind.
9) May add more impositions as I think of them.

{Join Me} If you are a Exchange junkie and would like to join
me in my Race to Space I might consider doing some kind of time challenge/bet
with you about who can do it faster (without cheating). It doesn't matter when
you start, just the time scale that's important. Jace did it in 48 days sixteen days, can you do it faster?
