WEEK 5 contest ended on:

Hello Rattlesnakes, Death Adders, Vipers, Cobras, Black Mambas and other feared and venomous snake creatures, aka Snake game players. It has been quite some time now for me being on top of my Serpent King Lair and observing how desperately you crawl around pit hole. But am feeling lone on the top so I challenge your to prove me there are many deadly Snake game players among us. Let’s spice up this game and make it even more fun and interesting to play and yes…..bring me some mice too.

So what I am talking about? I will hold a tournament that will take place in the next consecutive 16 weekly contests, starting on Monday, 13th of February 2017. Your goal is to beat my ALL TIME HIGH score as written on All Time Leaderboard (my score is currently set at 474 points). If there is no winner after that period, I will probably extend tournament for another 16 weeks (more or less). End of each week, consolation prizes will be given away to qualified players as stated in a table below. So that your effort will be paid off at some level.

Terms and conditions (aka TC):
TC1 - To participate in weekly contests you need to send (buy-in) a certain amount of coins to above specific addresses (use coin you prefer). Others coins might be added later on. Send me a PM for inquiry.

TC2 - Weekly contest starts every Monday at 6:00 and ends on each Sunday at 15:00 (UTC time, bitcointalk.org server time). The gap between represents a silent period before the start of a new week, where prizes are being calculated and paid to the winners and new amounts of prizes are set to take place for a contest that follows.

TC3 - No buy-ins will be accepted during a silent period and no score what so ever will be taken into account, no exception. The excess of buy-ins will be returned to the senders.

TC4 - I will play along you, compete against you and also pay a required buy-in. I will try to maintain my best score, regardless your best efforts to beat me. If you suddenly beat my score or some else's top score, it must hold on all the way until the end of an active contest, as said, until Sunday at 15:00. My game score whatsoever will not be qualified for any advertised prize.

TC5 - Snake game must not change greatly during the tournament (updates, maintenance, etc.), if it does (i will be the judge of that), the tournament will be temporarily suspended or terminated, depends on the changes. All buy-ins of an active week will be then returned.

TC6 - If a web site gets hacked, blocked or shut down by admin or third party, the tournament will be terminated and all buy-ins from an active week will be returned. Any remaining funds will be withheld.

TC7 - If someone equalizes my ALL TIME TOP score, the time spent for that score will be taken into account. Player must spend less time as i did to be qualified for the first prize.

TC8 - There might be done a lot of mistakes writing this text, in a sense of content, grammar, spelling mistakes or even math errors in terms of wrong calculations, but in general I hope you understand what is the point. I will try to correct all mistakes as soon as I find it, so please be patient about that. But most importantly, have fun!

More terms and conditions might be added later…
