Yeah even if you pick at block 800  vs 600 you are not giving yourself a lot of chance.

My current numbers show us close to ten percent.

Waiting to pick should be a good move.

Free Speech is the most important thing.
Last 65 blocks for guesses. It would be too hard to guess now with 0.10 range. I think this time winning pick contains more luck than skills.

current number is really high.  I glad we decided to delay until block 600  and to tighten the ranges up to .10 percent  it will take a little more skill and waiting a bit looks like the better move.

with the way we are making blocks we could be at 600 in 25 or 26 hours  maybe less.

tss has been paid.

I like the new rules. For the negative ranges I was thinking - what if we allow the zero to be picked by two participants.

i.e

-0.0

and

+0.0

would be valid picks, -0.00 to -0.09 and +0.00 to +0.09 respectively. If diff hits 0.00 both get paid. I'm quite confident in the odds against that Smiley

That would remove the slight confusion on the negative side and make both sides identical.

Diff change +2.24% = whoever picked +2.2 wins
Diff change +5.07% = whoever picked +5.0 wins
Diff change -1.51% = whoever picked -1.5 wins
etc

Good point I will alter the negatives to conform to the positives.


and done in first post.

yup.. got my winnings.  thanks guys.  i am a fan of the new format.  seems to allow more participants and a choice of picks. the last few contests filled in so fast you end up taking whatever is available just to be part of the game.
