This time I had to guess on my own. I couldn't get the cats to cooperate. The oldest was scared of the garbage truck, the middle one wasn't interested, and the youngest one was eating (he's a bit of a pig).
As always, thanks for contest Phil!

If you are overseas I will spring for the shipping of the Trezor
-3.0 = isoneguy
-1.3 = VRobb
-1.2 = philipma1957 >>>> I always pick this number
-0.2 = keystroke
0.0 = frankthetank
0.2 = mocacinno
0.9 = buwaytress
2.2 = vapourminer
And look at the diff drop the gray line has always been under so we are pretty much negative at the moment
While I have participated in these before, I have lost my sense of how the range works when we are into negative territory. If as an example, what would I choose for the following:
Estimated Next Difficulty: 922,529,973,147 (-0.08%)
Would that be -.1% -or- 0.0%
?
I'll wait a bit to make a guess, but thought I would ask now, since it seems possible to me will be in for decrease in diffiulty.
Thanks for doing this again!!!

-0.1 covers from -0.1 to -0.000000000000000001....
0.0 covers from 0.0 to 0.099999999999999999...
0.1 covers from 0.1 to 0.199999999999999999...
so -0.08 would be won by -0.1 not 0.0

+-0.0 = fr4nkthetank
Im going for the improbable. But hey who knows....segwit in 1000 blocks or so, volatility incoming...

Came pretty close with the last round, though not as close as V8 and that was me overestimating my original guess. So here's another overestimation. Thanks as always for hosting this game phillip!

we are dropping from 923xxxxx to 908xxxx
that is about -2%
but 1613 blocks left
985 ph on BCC
1 ph = 77 s-9 x 985 = 75845 s-9's mining BCC

This is not yet a guess, just fun with numbers.
If Difficulty were to go up (just) 8.32% this go-round, we'd be at difficulty of 1E12. I recall late summer 2013, when no one believed that difficulty would hit a Billion by the end of the year. (It did, block 276192, on 12/21/13)
I've been sharpening my dart this week. This is a more difficult prediction than I thought. Thanks for funding the contest!
