OFFICIAL ORGASMLESS OCTOBER SIGNUPS!

Will there be an official "New-Life November" Signups post in 'Rebooting', like there was for "Orgasmless October"?

As I am now, this very second, battling thoughts from the "Dark Side" that are telling me "October is almost over -- you've almost earned your 'upcoming reward'!" , I'd like to OFFICIALLY finalize my "I'm in!" for November as well, ASAP, to lock that mofo out for at least another month -- before I suddenly find myself already defeated.

Please open the upcoming signup for November ASAP! I see now that publicly committing to these challenges is VERY EFFECTIVE!
 
October is ruined for me. But I have learned some things I will explain in a new post. Do we have a NoFap November challenge or something to participate in?
 
I am in. No PMO, no P, no intentional P-subs, no sex, no dating, no late night food binges, no television, no web browsing unless it is related to one of my primary goals, focus on learning, greater self awareness and an appreciation of simple things in life. Starting bodyweight 213 lbs. Goal bodyweight after October, <= 210 lbs. Currently 25 days into hardmode with no PMO/MO. MO allowed in October so long as it is not excessive. Anti-depressants recommended.
So how has the month gone for you guys? And are we considering a November challenge thread? In review, my goals were as posted above and here is how the month went for me.

No PMO - full success in hard mode.
No P, P-subs - full success hard mode (no intentional viewing of anything p-sub related)
No sex or dating - easily made this goal as I'd have to seek it with a woman to be at risk here. Frivolous and I can strike this from my list of future goals.
No late night food binges - succeeded, but bad goal. I binged quite a bit during the day and even into early evening, so I might as well consider this a failed attempt.
No TV - Success here even though I watched some online TV (not in excess).
No web browsing unless related to primary goals - failed. I think I would have failed this one anyway, but I honestly forgot it was on my list and thus completely abandoned. Epic fail.
Focus on learning - good but could have been better. Overall success.
Greater self awareness - success thanks to nofap.
Bodyweight goals - failed. See binging section.

Future plans can be detailed in another thread. Comments:

Will reconstruct diet goals once I find a workable plan. Status quo is not perfect, but not terrible either so I can afford some planning time to get it right. I'll actually increase my TV and movie watching time because it is a safe outlet for enjoying some relaxation for me and I don't spend too much time on it. Good lesson learned. Superfluous web browsing? I am going to hit this hard somehow in November as a part of time management. It is a problem for me. Focus on learning will continue unabated. Greater awareness. I feel safe putting this on autopilot. Bodyweight goals = deferred for the next month.

3 failed and 5 succeeded. batting .625 for the month. Next month, more goals and more detail. They are good motivators for me and I am happy to have participated.

Anyone else have some other interesting recaps?
