    So are you going to post a running summary of guesses? Good. If so, could you put them in order of low to high? Just make a list from zero to the highest and put the first guesser's name next to the ones that are guessed. of course you don't have to post the ones not yet guessed.

    It would look like this, so far:

    0005 Drewnogal
    0123 CLL53
    0337 Vivify
    1012 Maxwell Smart

    This makes it easy for people who have guessed to find and make sure their guess has been registered.

    ...and concludes 1212 must be the winning number, forget it. This includes Ponderable,...


    Did I take part in any dubious calculation? I can't remember I picked 233 in the Monty Moose thread because of it's inhabiting quality.

    The scientific mind will choose the biggest hole in the numbers to enhance chances. This however is not foolproof. And if alot of people took part in the contest could have a lot to choose from.

    I applaud your generosity and stay out of the contest.

    How condescending can you get?

    If you think we used some mathematical formula to get a number then you're bonkers.

    They were simply guesses.

    I'm astonished at this odd remark! 😠

    Compliment, Ponderable. Strictly a compliment. Stay in. I'll record 233 unless your

    interesting rationale suggests otherwise. Thanks for being you and for being here!

    Morning, Mike. Jesting with three friends I consider especially brainy (P, S and you).

    Intent? Playfullness to set a relaxed tone. You seem quite tight. Loosen up. Ok.
