COME ONE COME ALL

The 2016 version of the Long Walk will commence on the first day of September in your local neighborhood.

For those that are not familiar with the Walk, here are previous threads:

Our Walkers destroyed goals and lads.

We had new and seasoned participants. I hope that this Walk will be no different as I feel it will test both equally.

This Walk will be called the "BOOTCAMP" and if a baiter completes it, he/she will certainly be among the most well rounded baiters anywhere.

I, along with input from other baiters, have put together a Bootcamp checklist that each Walker will have SIX MONTHS to complete starting September 1.

This is the checklist:

Quote:

Six Month Baiter Bootcamp Walk Checklist

100 New reports at www.scamwarners.com
Join the site, if you've not already, and look at the manner in which warning posts are made. If you need help, you need only to ask.

100 New Bank Accounts reported to Eater.
If you receive the same account from a different lad, report it and count it.

20 Credit Card numbers reported at Eater.
Look for threads like this one started by Frost: https://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=276654
Should another member get the same card number, as long as you received it and reported it, you count it.

1 Published bait in the correct forum.
https://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10

2 Confirmed Trophy Pics. No photoshopped or stolen from the web entries will count.

2 Co-baits with two different members of Eater. This may count towards the Published bait and Trophy Pic, however the trophy pic must be baited by you.

1 Massbait participation.

1 Safari Confirmed according to Eater guidelines.

Hats are for safaris. The rule for safaris is minimum 200 miles traveled distant from the lad's starting point (i.e. 400 miles round trip) OR an International border crossing. Getting a lad to travel this distance is the goal. In order to legitimately claim a pith helmet the journey would also have to be IP verified, OR verified by the lad's change of country code of his mobile phone number. Other solid evidence that the lad has traveled may also suffice, such as a selfie in front of a fixed landmark, hotel receipts or calls from fixed lines, or travel documents like visas, passport stamps, bus tickets or airline boarding card stubs. Geotags in digital photographs' EXIF data are also strong evidence for a lad having moved.

10 Fake websites, with a database entry at aa419.org, reported to the host/registrar for fraud.
https://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=57
Some may not have action taken against them, but they must be reported.
You do not have to be a member of aa419.org, but you must check its database to see if the domain you wish to report is already listed there IF you have found the site yourself.
You may report any site that has already been DB'd and is 'free to kill/report'.

Skype account set up and used in a bait. If a baiter cannot do this due to reasons beyond his/her control, another task will be given.

There will also be one mystery/bonus check for those that want the challenge.

There are instructions for all checkpoints listed in their individual forums. Read up.

Keep a running total for yourself and post it in this thread as needed. We want to know!

You may also ASK for help! We want you to ask questions. Preferably in this thread so that others, who have the same question, can see the answer.

TheMonsignor has volunteered to help answer Safari questions and can help with verifying or any other questions you might have for him.

I know that the list may seem daunting at first glance, but we have six months to complete it. I reserve the right to make modifications if needs be or Eater staff require/request them.

ALL previous baits, safaris, piggys, etc, will not count for this Walk. New or seasoned ...we walk together from day one.

If you are a member here or lurking in the back .... you are welcome to join us. We motivate each other on a daily basis and make sport at B8er's expense continually.

You will be pushed, you will be motivated, you may cry, you might get a nekkid selfie or three, but you will leave this Walk a lad breaking machine.

Who's with me?

Can I just run the tea & coffee stall?

^Will there be VAT? Confused

Of course not, all profits will go to compiling a 'family tree' for you rednecks.

Welcome aboard!

Sounds like one hell of a challenge!

If anyone has questions about reporting sites, I can lend a hand

Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2016 4:49 am

^ Thank you BBB. Most appreciated. Very Happy

Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2016 5:18 am

I am also happy to answer any questions about reporting sites.

As I have done for previous walks, I will pop in from time to time to report my site killing progress. It's been a while since we had a walk and they're good motivation for me to pick up the pace. My numbers have been slipping of late.

Bonus points to be had if the trophy involves fish fisting, banjos or NASCAR.

A most worthwhile challenge. Looking forward to following this Thread as it evolves.

You making this walk Goat-Boi? Or just flapping your soup coolers?

I'm in.... Some parts will really stretch my baiting comfort zone, but that's what this is all about.

Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2016 10:30 am

I kind of failed at the last walk-I strolled rather than strode. I'll try and up my game on this one!

Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2016 2:28 pm

^ Two mods in two posts!

Knowing you, if you've not been stretching before, there are some lads in store for some serious pain.

It is common knowledge that, while on walks, Pugs quite often stop to ask total strangers, "What the hell are you looking at?".

Dear Sir,

Am Interested. Tell me more.

"2 Co-baits with two different members of Eater. This may count towards the Published bait and Trophy Pic, however the trophy pic must be baited by you.

1 Massbait participation"

Explain the difference in proper English, please. Is it not possible to do both at one time?

TIA,
Brianna

Dear Ma,

Thank you for your interest and pointing out a need for clarification.

I should have made clear the the trophy pic and published bait checks can be satisfied through massbait participation, publishing only your bait.

The spirit of the co-bait though, is for a member to team with another individual to bait for a specific goal.

Very Happy

Much like PF, am willing to learn...

Posted: Thu Aug 18, 2016 4:01 pm

^ And much like PF ...you take a fine selfie. Laughing

Does this mean you will be walking again? You are always a pacesetter.

Ah, I'll just put this grappling hook away then...

I was just.. making sure it was alright.

As a noob, and as Justcold's latest student, you can count me in.

I'll at least give it a go and see where it takes me.

Posted: Fri Aug 19, 2016 1:04 pm

^ Not my latest anymore. I've given you the boot. Very Happy
