We haven't tested to see if it counts the time when you are "waiting for players", but I would guess it doesn't. Once the game goes live, 4 players, the time counts, so grab 3 friends and hop in.

Awesome idea but too bad it starts on the 11th. Trying to decide between bf3 and skyrim is going to leave me chanting random things under my breath curled in the fetal position on my office floor.

GameME doesn't start recording stats until 6 players are present on the server.

where can we see the true hrs from the contest? The hrs on Gameme reflects time from the 9th and 10th, i think.

Go to GameMe, and look at each day. Until we get to the 1 week mark that is the only way, as GameMe currently does not allow you to say from day X to day Y.

I'll be posting weekly updates to the current standings based on who has signed up. If you don't sign up... no matter how many hours you have in... you won't have a chance to win.
