Quote: Does the sloth have a tail? No tail, idk if it's a design flaw, I saw sloths in Costa Rica and don't remember them having tails lol  if they should have a tail it's a design flaw  I'm surprised I haven't seen more diversity in the give away, NZ etc is all welcome to participate, anyone non local I will send tracked. I think Russia and a few other places are off the table but most are welcome to participate. I wouldn't mind seeing princetane join the contest. Round 1 over on the 25th, most are guessing low and round two iv decided the contest but there will be at least 3 rounds if no one wins the first round . Though once iv counted the coins this contest is going to speed up  The whole giveaway contest is fun for me and hopefully the members participating. This is going to be a narrow it down contest untill the end, so risky high guesses in the first round might win, otherwise the second round will be a little cut out. I stated there is more dimes and quarters then nickels but tbh I have no clue. Round 2 will be guess what there is the most of, 1/3 odds so hopefully it will cut it back. If we get that far round 4 will be a whole new game... But only to those who survived the first rounds. I'm not 100% if I'll do this exactly but if no one wins round 1 then this will be an elimination contest.

Also I'm open to ideas for possible second third fourth etc rounds for the game, it will have to do with the coins and the amount untill the end.
Hopefully everyone has fun:)

I don't think anyone is going to get within $4.

Quote: I don't think anyone is going to get within $4. It's possible no one will get it, I couldn't tell you lol. That's why I'm planning for more then one round, it's possible everyone is under and no one is disqualified. Round two will cut down the numbers though and round 3 will be a settler round and worst case it will be 4 rounds. Round 1 ends on the 25th, every other round if no one guesses right will be a max of 48 hours so longest cast we should have a winner before the end of the month. Round one is more of a qualification round with the chance to win right away. But if your not in round 1 you cannot join round 2

Updated list of participants.
Coinman91-$67.00 Ijn1944-$117.55 Nfine-$82.65 Fefimo-$72.65 Yokozuna-$77.77 NumismaticsFTW-$102.00 Mrwhatisit-$56.50 Dennman-$88.88 nss-52-$225.00 Joshu-a-$110 TNG-$94.65 Earle42-$42.50 T-BOP-$52.75 CambriaMarket-$101.25
So the official end time of round one will still be the 25th but I should have posted a time so 8am forum time on the 25th round 1 will be over. With the big variance in guesses I wouldn't be surprised if someone does guess within 4$ on the first round so may not go into round 2. The more participants the more chance of it being guessed.

Hmm , sorry but I must be a pain in the butt again . It would benefit participants, and members who have not guessed yet as well as you to have that list in numerical order corresponded to their name . Makes it easier to guess a figure without landing on someone else's guess .

All guesses are free to be changed up untill the 25th, it's a lot to do on my phone, I'm copying the list and re pasting it and then adding the new participants. When I get a sec I'll re right out the list and then re "text" it lol. The next list will be from lowest to highest guess.

Let me get this straight.... If someone gets within $4 they win. Otherwise, as long as the guess is not OVER the actual amount, they progress to the 2nd round. If so, I may revise my guess downward.

You have the highest guess as of so far, you are welcome to lower it, as is anyone else...just don't go changing it randomly over and over for no reason lol. I'll post a revised list of participants tomorrow morning after work. I'm off to bed now though, all you other dad's out there have a great Father's Day and I'm sorry if the contest seems a little different then most but I'm just trying to have fun with it  hopefully it is more fun then confusing lol.
