stake the 8

the stake
i am looking for a stake to play STT's on blondepoker. i am looking initially to be staked for the month of September, with the intention of continuing on if all parties are happy. i am looking for a total stake of $1100 to play $20+2 10 person tables. i intend to play on average 30 games per day between noon and 7pm. i will be playing the regular speed table, called cambridge and the turbo table, called bakersfield. i will be playing the tables in batches of 6 at a time with a small break in between each batch. i wont have mixed batches though, so i can focus on the discipline in hand.
the stake of $1100 is exactly 50 buyins. i am looking to chop this $1100 into palatable portions of 10% @ $110. as i am not looking to increase the bankroll during the month, all daily profits will be will be split 50/50 between myself and the stakers as a group, which will be sent at the end of the days play. if i have a losing day, the following days will be aimed at restoring the bankroll to $1100. with blondepoker i will be getting 30% rakeback, which works out @$18 per day on the assumption i am playing 30 tables per day @$2 per table. all in all rakeback should be 500$ per month, which will be split as profit if it is excess of the $1100 bankroll.
(one small amendment that i may change is the working month starting on rakeback day +1 until rakeback day a month later, in real terms 8th sep-7th oct, as opposed to the 1st sep-3oth sep)
my game
i feel my STT game is fine on the field so to speak, but id like to improve off it. i am looking keep daily records open to all on a thread on blonde, with insight and analysis most welcome as long as it is constructive.
expectations
my expectations are that i will make profit over and above the rakeback, but i honestly do not know at what level. though i am extremely confident i will not lose your money.
motivation
this is the second most important idea of this stake proposal, behind wining. i want to have aims and when backers invest you do not want to disappoint, this i hope and expect will be what drives me on.
past performance
i have several accounts over the cryptologic network, which is the only place I've played a large volume.

freshmeat
all seem to have a similar graph of early rise and late fall and i think all are in profit, if this freefalling occurs i want to be able to nip it in the bud, and keeping a thread open on blonde will certainly highlight it so i can correct it and essentially become a better player.
discipline
this has been a problem for me, winning at STT then losing at cash and MTT. as for cash games, first of all i don't particularly like them and if I'm playing them you can be sure its to make a quick buck at stakes about 10 levels above my bankroll. MTT's i enjoy playing as a bonus almost, though a long term goal of mine is to get better at these.
that is why this staking proposal is just for STT and i will not be involved in anything bar $22 STT. i will post my blonde username on the thread and your are welcome to shop me to the stakers if i abuse their trust.
i hope this interests you and you post an offer on this thread
thanks

Good proposal Fergus - and a good bounce-back from the other thread.
I don't know your game but you come across as though you are going to put a lot into this so I would like to take 10%.
