"Hell Freezes Over" 1st-of-each-month Contest 915 It came down to a Sudden Death Playoff between DernHumpus and sleepercaprice1 ... DernHumpus was pulled out of the number generator yet a second time and walked with it all. Sleepercaprice1, sorry 'bout your close game, but send me you address too.  Those folks need to pick yet another whole integer.   Sorry guys, but we're figuring out the rules right here and now for all of eternity, so ... if no one has that number, we instantly pick another until we find someone or a crowd that does. M. LaRue Bloencustoms threw this rules list together for us and I want to hold it here for discussion ... did he miss anything ???

Done. Tagged. And if I might make a suggestion. How about a tally sheet that's updated with what numbers have been picked, updated "when someone gets around to it" but hopefully every day. What happens if two people pick the same number and it wins? I'm sure that 223 and 556 will be picked multiple times. Could someone code up a "pick your square" application and host it? Nothing really fancy, just find your number and stake it out with your name on it. That way, people can pick numbers that haven't been picked yet without having to wade through thousands of posts.

So of course I went to bed early last night then saw my note about the drawing this morning. So the thread of numbers hit 19 pages so I pick my number that I already chose in advance hoping no one posted it yet post it and go back to look through the picks to find it again on page 3. At least there is another pick if there is a tie.----> good luck to everyone. |
While I can't speak for Mark, after seeing the way he has treated service members in the past I can't hardly believe he would say no... Also, Mark I've attempted to send you several emails with a question and never got a response... |
Oh hell yeah you're in. We'll hold it until you come of deployment. Might have a rather large function-fired round count by then. ML |
All I know is, Mark, you are one hell of a guy and if I ever have the chance to meet you, I would like to buy you a beer. |
First in with it.
Mark, I was gonna post about this earlier. There is no doubt that there are going to be a bunch of duplicate numbers. Just my humble opinion, but I think that the tiebreaker should go to the first poster of the winning number(based obviously on time and date of their UNEDITED post) not a second random tiebreaker drawing. You would be penilizing the original poster. Just MHO, and thank you for doing this giveaway |
