Hmm, my math doesn't look right. Maybe I should try waking up. Regardless, a very big portion has been eliminated. Just keep an eye on that used letter board and maybe we can eliminate a few more.

Try hitting the exclamation point a few times...I heard that helps!



( edit )
I tried to put three of them in a row! But the forum software would not let me!

ROFL @ Scooby. Touche.

I had excluded the winning 6 currencies from my calculations. The number now is 6,906,762,437,184 or more simply 21.1% left.

Just use spaces!

Rikando, have you also excluded the other fictionals? I still show 138 from your original list, but I didn't take the other fictionals/expired out.

Ok, I think I'll just avoid math for the remainder of this contest. Yes, I too have 138, but I used n^r instead of n!/(n-r)!. Coffe I will do, math, no.

And thank you xshift for correcting me! Generally I like to be the first to find my mistakes (easier to hide them that way) but sometimes it's nice to know there is someone actually paying attention. :)

I'm watching the congressional hearing of the oil CEO's and they had filed "oil spill safety response plans" for the gulf that made reference to protecting walruses.

OMG!

.. not like you really need to worry about that, with all of us watching like a hawk!

The formula in excel is actually pretty painless.. =PERMUT(# of choices, # chosen) so currently it's at =PERMUT(138,6) which gives 6,186,268,559,520.

I'm gonna say NAK is fictional.

Is "exclude" a funny word now?
