The April 1st Pinnacles Climbers Weigh-in day!

 Rules;
 State your current weight, times the number(s) right of the decimal of the hardest route Y.D.S rating redpointed at Pinnacles during the previous 12 months. Weigh sans clothes and gear, (NOTE:valid without pics please). Highest number wins!

 Note: For letter grades add .25 for b, .50 for c, and .75 for d.
          If you free-soloed the route, which is cheating, the penalty is to deduct the weight of your rope from your weight.
          If you donated a kidney after the redpoint, you may add in twice the weight of the kidney back to your weight.

 Examples;
Climber A, Weight 138 X Redpoint (5.12b) 12.25 = 1,690.5
Climber B, Weight 140 X Redpoint (5.13c) 13.50 = 1,890
Climber C, Weight 220 X Redpoint (5.8)    8  = 1,760
Climber D, Weight 185 X Redpoint (5.10d) 10.75 = 1,988.75

 Climber D wins!

 Remember, you can post up a number and let us guess as to how you came up with it. The FBI will not investigate any claims.
 Entries shall be posted by the 7th of this month. Discuss as long as you like.

 Go find a scale!

 BAP, did you ride a horse up a 5.1? No, more like did you take a pack train up a 5.1?

OK - even if I did redpoint a climb in the last year I would be screwed - since I have never redpointed anything harder than a 5.8.

Not going to tell you the number, because you could figure out my weight ;-).

The game rule did not specify the unit of measurement for weight. I weigh 2,000 ounces, and I red pointed several 10A last year in Pinnacles - therefore 2,000 x 10.2 = 20,400.

But she's right, Clink. I guess you shoulda' been more careful.

(And how many of those "onces" she weighs are just pure toughness?)

Weight is down and too busy to redpoint harder stuff.

 I may have to buy you a custom t-shirt for you to wear climbing or just to make guys or girls take notice with this quote. (Unless someone comes up with something better.)

 This reminds me of Noal's all-time best Pinnacles quote ever,(Which has got to end up referenced in the guide???) and when coupled with the Leeper hanger on the graphic is as classic as it gets.

 Note: The Official unit of measure shall be US pounds(not Troy), on Judgement Day, April 7th, in the year of the guy Brad is always referring to.

 Hmmm, what does the committee (of those who should be committed) of Pinnacles climbers think?

 My thoughts 100 points bonus. Or 3x the number of pushups you can do in a minute sometime between April 1st  and 7th.

 Munge, feel free to weigh in with a highly regulated and suppressed portion of your thoughts.

You probably should just let her win.

I have it on good authority that she's consulting with an attorney about your cheating, whining ways (ex post facto definition of body weight).

 BAP is clever. Sounds like I should ask advice from BAP and for a deposition I will be giving in May for a property access dispute.  :)

 Nope, I will call you. I don't want to inadvertently change any former descriptions, statements or assessments I made! It's hard to keep emotions out of this situation and be pragmatic.

Hey, she'd be fun on your side in a deposition!!

"Did you just fail to address my client with the word 'sir'? F#$K YOU [insert name]."

"Did you just interrupt my client? F#$K YOU [insert name]."

I might pay to see that one.
