Congratulations to joshu-a - Winner of Round 2!

Well played by the runner-ups! It took a guess within 23 nickels of the actual count to earn bonus points. Very impressive indeed.

Special note for CKcollectibles2 - you actually tied for Win for the closest guess (6 nickels off) and I had to invoke the round tiebreaker rule:


Quote:
The person guessing the closest will receive 20 points. In the event of a tie, the lower guess will win.


Season standings coming up.
