Hi this was going on last year, I know because it was when I joined, of how during March (before allergy season) people couldn't let a sneeze out. Needless to say, I don't think anyone manages this, but its fun to hear about how people get on (oor don't as the case may be.) So is anyone up for it this year? I'm in!

Like as not I won't win, but I'll give it a go this year.

why not? let the games begin!

I'll lose on March 1st when I get out of the shower! But it'll be fun to watch everyone else.

I want to hold you to that, Nicole. And I'll lose on the same day while I'm cleaning the bread cooler at work.

Okay. Make sure you report back to me!

Will do, honeybunny.

*rubs nose*

Challenge accepted!

Ha I can so do that, I only sneeze four or five times in a month and I can stop it very easily, so I won't have any problem doing this.

I'll try. Don't expect me to last long though!

I'm game

Oh what a funny challenge!
I think I might last for some week without sneezing, I don't sneeze very often. So yes, I'm in.

Oh, gosh, I'm not even going to try. I'm pretty sure I'd lose by a few hours into March 1st, just considering how sneezy I am and how I'm allergic to everything...yeah, no.

Memo to self .. remember to send a big bunch of roses to GOR on March 1st ..

As for me .. no chance for a month .. a few days maybe .. but a month .. !!!

I could survive a while....but a whole month? I doubt it....

I might be in the running until the 3rd - 4th week of March when the tree pollen starts to come out. Maybe I'll give it a whirl. Hopefully you all will remember to revive this thread (or start a new one) March 1st.

I'll be there. I'm running against Nicole.

lol I get the sneeziest at work so if I'm working on March 1st I'm a gonner right away!



Wouldn't that be cheating hank? Play nicely please!

I can go months without sneezing. Haha I'll definately do this.

Likely won't last long, but I'll play

Yes, count me in. Sometimes I don't sneeze for two or three days, so perhaps I'll reach March 4th ...

*Looks around for Lamborghini* I'm game, but I need my competition. LOL!

I'd be much better at "first sneeze of March 2010" but I'll give it a go...

Ah, and that's where the "Sneeziest April" competition comes in! We just have to stay on the ball enough to get official winners this year...

And I agree, Lambo - come take credit for your invention!

Aw this is unfair, my allergy time is in June.

I'm in! ;D Oh yeah. I feel a real competition brewing...

I'm always in for counting sneezes. Trying for a sneezeless month still sounds perverse for sneeze fetishists, but ... why not ?

I'm In sounds fun

So is mine, Sophie...or at least that's my worst month during the grass pollen season. But being allergic to dust as well, I usually sneeze first thing in the morning, so I would lose this one as soon as I get out of bed on 1st March!

It will be fun to follow this though and see how everyone else gets on

Omg I'm in lol. I rarely sneeze. I shall win. Mwahahahah.

Although when I do sneeze, I'm not could at holding them back. >_<

I honestly feel I could go 3 years w/o sneezing if I really wanted to so I guess im in on this too but its not really fair cause I can easily stop my sneezes

You guys are all nuts

I will have a go but hold no hope what so ever, i think as soon as minight strikes i will be out of the game!

So, let me get this right... you're all gonna try to stop yourselves sneezing for a whole month?

Can I just watch?!!

Rhino

It's easy to stop a sneeze. Let's do this!
I'm not a very sneezy person to begin with, so this sounds like my kinda game.

I'm most definitely in! And this year, I won't give up because I can't be bothered any more... Came close last year, but this year I will see it through

Lamborghini, come, join us

Quick question on the contest rules: what are the rules around medication?

Try not to sneeze? Not me!

Feel free to fail all of you!

haha, not a damn chance. time of year has no impact on me, and my allergies are pretty mild on the whole, but I know from years of experience that my morning dust-induced sneezes cannot be repressed. any attempt just ruins my makeup moments after I've applied it and makes me late for work. and I'd probably be the first one out, anyway. but I wouldn't mind being a spectator, either

Sure, why not. Count me in. XD

I shall epically pwn all of ya'll [insert evil laughter here]

I'll give it a go too. I'm really good at stopping sneezes in public but I do find it harder when I'm on my own. So we'll see!

Well it's officially 37 minutes into March 1. Let the joust begin.

MY SISTER WENT AND GAVE ME HER COLD xD Perfect timing... I'll see what I can do anyway though Good luck everyone!

The Oceana-ans are first - as always...

Us North Americans still have 12+ hours of safe sneezing time - best make the most of it.

im in... never tried to see if i couldn't sneeze for a month... me thinks i will fail. but tomoro morning here i go. best take adavntage and get all sneezyness out of me today.

Well that's me done. A single at 10.30 and a stifled double at 11.03.

Ha ha!

(Bless you x 3)

You tried, Mr Sneezy.

Good luck everyone else!

I failed. I had three false starts in class this morning which obviously I fought hard to encourage into full sneeziness and failed miserably, damn that mental block but as soon as I stepped outside the school door and the sun hit me in the eyes the irritation blossomed and I sneezed twice and then once more when driving home. Obviously this is devastating news but perhaps, given time, I can learn to live with it!
