Do I have to sift through this thread? .....

Oh, heck - I'll stay with 2001.

The whole 'clues' thing just added a bad dimension to this thing, where the brainier posters will have an unfair advantage.
UGh .... still another 7-8 weeks away...

Lady Luck also plays a role.

By the way, where is the end of "Friday, December 21, 2012" to be determined? Some of us will be thinking it has ended, while other are just waking up. Maybe you have clarified this but a reminder would be helpful to all of us who are being strategic nerds -- who really should be paying attention to our chess. Is it GMT?

Note: Times on both dates is GMT-5.

Yes, but when Friday December 21, 2012 starts, or when it ends?

Originally posted by Grampy Bobby
When it starts, of course, @ 12:01 AM GMT-5. Same standard international time zone designation will apply on Christmas Day.

As RHP designates it, there is no such time. So you mean, no entry after 21 Dec '12 00:01 GMT-5 will count. Right?

It's a simple [b]yes or no question.

Even your idol Bowmann would agree.

Is your contest restricted to odd numbers?

Some days a guy can't even give cash money away. Strange times we live in, indeed.

GB's involvement in the first contest and the first post of this thread added the bad dimension, not the introduction of clues.

His latest clue is that entries are restricted to odd numbers and even numbers will not be accepted.
