6 months is fine. Hope that'll you'll have some RL run good so you can get some more volume:-)
Wouldn't mind extending to more than 6 months if you get a bit higher volume / week.

I hope you will get more fishes and more traffic now that PP and Bwin merged their pools. 
Week 4 has been updated to include the graph of the week...

Hey, i don't mind staking going on for 6 months, but in that case it would be pretty cool to have profit splits during that time, so that we all don't have to wait whole 6 months for the money to come in. Personally, i'm thinking about every month or two (given that your volume is fairly low, 2 months sound more reasonable). And i'm assuming that the chance of you going broke with 25 BI BR is really low, right?
Hey i like the idea but with something like this there would be a possiblilty that i could end up even after making a decent amount being in make-up or the like so id prefer to just keep going until I either hit the 6 month mark or the 50k hands then split profits at once.

We can have a discussion with all the backers when that time period comes.
On a side note action on partypoker seems to have gotten even worse with the merging of player pools maybe its just that bwin fish dont know how to upgrade the software... Lets hope thats the case.
Hey, is there any free action ?
Hi SneakyhanD unfortunately all action has been taken, but come back sometime in April i may want another staking deal of somekind then..
Hello to everyone.
1)There is no absolutely no problem with the stake being for 6 months.
2) If the stake ends profitable and you want to make a new one, be assured that I would back you up again with no second thought.
3) Regarding Bingiux recommendation, I want to revise a bit and I am sure both you and the backers will agree.
What i suggest is that you keep our original stake of $5000 plus $5000 of the profits until the end of the stake. So you will have 50 Buy-ins at all times. This will minimise the possibility of you going busto.
Any profits above $5000 can be distributed among the backers and you every 1/2 months depending on volume/profits.
This is just a suggestion that I believe will be beneficial to everyone. If no-one disagrees from the backers and you are ok with it, we can implement it. If not, there is no problem with keeping things as they are.
Cheers
I'd just stick to the original terms, i think this is a lot of unneccessary complication to constantly pay out the profits, it will take a lot of James's time and our time as well since we will have to constantly calculate the profits and check if everything is as it should be.
I say we should wait the 6 months, then distribute the profits and maybe start a new stake if neccessary (we should have the ability of continuing the stake as the original backers though).
I don't think that anyone will really miss those couple of hundred $ that we would get every month or so, since if you are staking for that much money you should have a pretty big bankroll behind to be able to accept the risks...
I just don't think it's fair to james and to some of the backers (who want passive income, not having to discuss these things constantly) to complicate this too much ;).

WEEK 5
Am at my parents house for Christmas right now so cant post graphs profit is at around 6k total.
Glad it looks like everyones ok with keeping to the original agreements changing the terms of the stake would be quite some hassle with the number of backers we have in the agreement..
Hope everyone is having a great Christmas

Everyone's now 2x'd their money 
Side note: would like to check that backers are comfortable with me playing and sitting on other regs on Pkr. The reason for this is that im getting alot of abuse on opening 9 tables on pkr, and each day get multiple regs table blocking me. If i am willing to give them action it means i can get them reported to pkr support for being out of order, this picture is a case in point.

i Highly doubt any of these regs that are being so petty are any good but as stated before in the staking application thread if i cant find any good leaks in their game after 30-40 hands i will quit them.
If anyone has a problem with this please contact me asap as ill be implementing this from today.

Week 9
This week i think is the first losing one on the stake but not that heavy a blow infact not even 1 buy-in down.

This last week I had some of the best action yet on stake but unfortunately lost 5bi+ to 2 massive whales which cause the rest of the week to be a game of catchup.
My Pkr reg problems still occurred twice by different sets of regs, but as I was willing to play, Pkr support was helpful and removed them off what seemed to be all the tables on the site. This meant I was able to continue playing without much disturbance.
Well, every week cant be as great as previous ones. But a nice comeback, tho. 
And thumbs up for PKR support. 
GL this week.
