Still experimenting with the rules, but I'll try to keep it simple.

1. Everyone can play, regardless of the number of posts. The more players the merrier!

2. Out of 150 currencies below, given by their code name, I've picked a winning combination (rather permutation to be precise) of eight distinct currencies.

3. You can post 8 currencies, no repetition within a single guess allowed, and I'll give you feedback in the following form.
If you got a currency right and it is in the correct position, I'll call it a bull (!). If you got a currency right but it is not in the correct position, I'll call it a cow (!).
Example:
Suppose the winning combo is
AAA, BBC, CIA, FBI, KGB, SOB, UFO, PHD.

Your submission is
ADD, KGB, CIA, LSD, ICU, AAA, WWW, IOU.

Then I'll reply: 1 bull and 2 cows (CIA is a bull, KGB and AAA are cows).

4. Everybody gets three guesses a day, day determined by the forum clock. If you guessed 3 times just before the midnight, after 12:00 AM you can guess again. There's no rollovers, if you missed a chance to post three guesses today, there's no additional guesses tomorrow. The first three days you can submit guesses at any time, you can even post three guesses together. After the third day (honoring rikcando's input) there should be at least 30 minutes between your guess posts.

The exception is your "Final Guess". This could be posted at any time (it could be your fourth guess of the day, or your guess without 30 min grace period after 3 days) and it ends the game for you. If you get the winning combo it'll end the game for everyone!

5. The prize: 1987 (the first year of issue) proof $1 Canadian Loon, in mint box. (Sorry, I cannot take a decent picture of a proof coin.)
