Vernon Frenzel built a house of cards using 18 cards on someone’s back.
Stride’s setting 100 records in 100 days. At the end of 100 days, we’ll
verify if you are the standing Record Holder. If you are, you’ll get
$500 for each record you managed to hold with your guile, talent, and
sheer will.
General caution and common sense required. We show the Stride Team at
work, but recommend that these challenges be done at home.

Mitch, we hear you. We've worked incredibly hard to remain as consistent as possible with our moderation style throughout the competition. The honey issue was a very difficult call, but we ultimately saw no way to claim that "honey" was not a liquid.
For this category, there's a basic understanding that a house of cards is built with flat playing cards. As I said, your submission was creative, but our moderation team felt it was in violation of understood rules.

Sorry but one last comment...Does using honey or water with corn starch for the longest coffee mugslide align with the spirit of the competition?
Dan Rollman
Clever concept Mitch, but violates the spirit of the category and precedent set by others.
Rob Birdsong
Mitch - you attempt was denied because it does not align with the spirit of the competition.
Mitch Jankowski
rob...why was my attempt denied?
Rob Birdsong
Mick, exactly.

I've already beaten 75, I'm just saving the video hahaha
Vernon Frenzel
I give up on this one xD Got to 65 and sister was being a brat and blew it, and now i can't reach it again lol. Good game Neil :)
Vernon Frenzel
That makes sense. Imma try this one today :) See what we can get.
Mick Cullen
Thanks, Rob. So a roof is OK as long as it's just one layer?
Rob Birdsong
Mick and Vernon - Will laid some cards on top of others, which we have not been allowing.
Mick Cullen
Hey guys-- what did Wil fail to do? Let us know.
Vernon Frenzel
My guess: The roof idea (If that's not it, i'm sure I can get 6 decks on one roof easy with the right support), 6:33 it kinds looks as if he's bending the card (Maybe just my eyes, just pointing out what i see), and lastly, i'm not sure what qualifies at "Regulation playing cards." Could that be it, maybe?

JeffP - the video on the record stops and the audio continues around 7:36. We have no way of seeing the final card house and cannot accurately judge this record. Let us know if you re-submit the file.
Jeff P
Rob - can the video just be cut at 6:13 and then the record would be 58 cards and just ignore everything that happens past that mark
Vernon Frenzel
I'll give it a shot later today, we're about to go out and get a few things for this and other records. Including a few more deck of cards. And i'm going back to my tubby dad xD More space. Good job.

Vernon, great competition. This is a really tough record!
