Evidence Requirements
I was thinking about attempting the Tube Challenge, and I was wondering how much evidence would be required to have my attempt recognised by members of the forum.

Re: Evidence Requirements
none at all if you say you have done we will believe you unless your first name is ******** and you say done it in 8 hours and 4minutes.

Re: Evidence Requirements
I still try to maintain the list of top times for the FNC. Very occasionally, if I think someone's account of a completion doesn't add up (e.g how was Olympia done?), I may send them a PM for an explanation before adding them to the list. Provided the account is credible, we have to rely on people's honesty.

Re: Evidence Requirements
To be honest, there aren't many regular users of the forum who know who ******** is now, so even unblocking it would leave people none the wiser as to who you're talking about.Golf wrote: ↑18 Jan 2021, 09:43hence above comment its amazing after all these years the name ******** is still blankedNigel wrote: ↑18 Jan 2021, 08:18I still try to maintain the list of top times for the FNC.

Re: Evidence Requirements
Did you wear anything that showed you were doing it for charity. I'm not intending to go all out on a charity outfit just a badge on my shirt/coat

Re: Evidence Requirements
On my attempts I just kept a log more for my own benefit for future planning.

Re: Evidence Requirements
The reason for me taking a log was a three step process
1) I needed to know where I was going (since I don't live in London)
2) It would serve as a record to look at in future if I so required
It was then I decided that if I was going to do this I might as well do it for charity and use the logbook as evidence that I'd done it. Although not officially required I'm a bit leery about people giving me money without supplying them any proof

Re: Evidence Requirements
We did take money if offered on our may CiN attempts - but in the main if people expressed an interest we hand out "flyers" with the link to our just giving page
