Short, fast-paced game tomorrow. I need it to be solved by the afternoon.

So, I'm thinking 1 guess per person every 30 minutes. Selecting 7 currencies.

Hopefully, around a noon time start (EST).

I expect to be doing some cement work in the morning so I hope I can get done in time.
Starting at noon and you want it done by the afternoon?

In order to determine the size of the puzzle and the timeframe for guessing, I need to know who's in.

I want to try and have this solved by later this afternoon. I'm still spending the night at the hospital. So, if it is not solved by later today, I may have to suspend guessing until morning.

We'll start in about an hour or so. I'm going to try and work on nod's puzzle for brain breakfast.

So, who's in?

I'm in, but if you want to play, I can do a speed round instead. I wanted to do a wide opened round with a guess every 5 minutes. Keep looking for a chance to do that.

Thanks rikcando. Maybe if we can get this one done today, you could do one tomorrow.

I'm hoping xshift can chime in and play, but she might not be able to participate until next weekend. She said she would host one after that, too. So, I'll get to play soon enough!

Anyway, sorry about the delay, been getting/giving mom updates.

So, if there is only you two. What currency am I thinking of?

Just kidding! Let me trim down the currency list and we'll begin in a few minutes.

I am going to pick 50 random currencies from the standard list we've been using.

This will be a pick 7, for 7 Scooby Snacks. (Gonna make you earn those 0/0's!)

1 guess per person every 15 minutes, monitored by the forum clock. Every :15, :30, :45, and :00 on the forum clock resets guesses.

Standard "final answer" applies.

Winning selection has been made!

Guessing may begin at the bottom of the hour. Here is the list to choose from:

AED United Arab Emirates, Dirhams
