As a duplication you should be added to the lower section. The odds are against a duplicated number winning, but who knows? It's Monty's offer so he gets to make the rules.

Not true. The probability of any given number being selected is 1 in 1,000, whether or not it is duplicated.

If we all picked the same number, it would have the same chance of being Monty's number as any other.

Read the OP. Monty promised a playoff if more than one person has the winning number.

Although I'm not able to participate I do have a question, since Pi has been forwarded are decimals allowed? There doesn't seem to be anything saying not.

For the sake of argument, let's say pi is a valid entry.

How likely is it that pi is the number MontyMoose has in mind?
