@promise444c5 Thanks for your suggestions, I have made an adjustment. Meaning everyone has only from now till 15th January to make their guess and that is the deadline, then on 24th and 25th is for them to submit their screenshots on the thread quoting their entries.
I think this is fine now instead of leaving the contest open till 24th and then screenshots 25th, it would make no sense for that.
@Charles-Tim, are you okay with this now?
Please take note: The deadline is 15th January then screenshots is 24/25th January.

It's nice to see a contest like this on our local board. Wishing everyone on this local board a happy Christmas and New Year in advance. Here are my predictions below.
Code:
Hhampuz - ending 6237
Charles-Tim - ending 5271
1miau - ending 7070
Charles-Tim - ending 5271
1miau - ending 7070
Looking at this challenge there is a high probability that no one will win the challenge, or everyone will win it if the rules are not changed.
Anybody could wait till the 25th of next month and find a way to send the last merit to one of the members listed above with a totally different account used in applying and then submit their application. There are several ways this challenge can be manipulated.
Also, I think you should put a limitation on which rank can participate. Members and above if fine to participate in the challenge. To avoid flooding accounts in the thread.

Wow another game is here again on 9ja local board, I applaud you @SmartGold01 for the initiative you've brought here but looking at this game it looks like no one may be able to win game. Lets just try our best since its just a fun game. But my question is that if no one wins the game what will be the reward for participating, because atleast there should be a reward even if there is no winner so that next time people can turn up more.
The reason for this long is to have possible winner, if is short then it wouldn't be that fun. The fun part of it is the long it's taking so we can see what would make us laughing. However, it's meant for next year celebration as this months to next months 24th will be game moment instead of just having it so short.
You can still make the time long for us to make merit guesses. Promise444c5 has already posted what I meant, for more clarity. If people can make guesses up to January 24th of January and the merit guesses will not last more than 25th of January, I think the time is very short. At least you can let there be a week or two weeks differences. This is my opinion. I guess people will likely make the complaint later but once you know early already, it can still be fixed as soon as possible. Also it will not affect those that have made their guesses already if it is not changed from 25th of January but the time given for people to make their selection can be adjusted back a bit. 
You will have to guess between from today to 25th of January 2025, entry close by 12pm GMT, and winner will be announced 2-4 days interval.
Do not mind me. There is something I do not yet understand about this contest which I will want you to clarify. Assuming people start selecting what you requested, when will the selection ends? I think the time should be very short in a way it should not be more than 7 days. Just like I have implied, I may just be confused and not really understood that you have mentioned it in the OP. With how I understood the OP, people are given up to 24th of January to select.
Now from your rule you mentioned it that contestants have the chance to guess right from now till 25th of January.. right??
Hence, you added : quoted..
"You can only pick minimum of 3 persons from the list above, and guess what their merits will end before 24th of January"
This means that if you give everybody the chance to guess tight from now till 25th then everybody will probably just wait to drop their entries on 24 then screenshot on 24 and send it on 25 easy pizzy
Here is what you can do imo ...
Break it into two aspect (from what you stated), the guessing which should run for maybe 1-2 weeks, then the screenshot can come in on 25th , this is not necessary though a good suggestion would be just taking the guess only, creating a open data entry list just like a raffle since it can't be changed once guessed, now you can make your selection on 24th January after checking each of their merits count compared to contestant guess to pick a winner ..
Sug: it's not easy to get accurate result why not just set nearest guess plus you need to consider more winner than just one but if you feel that's what you want to use then it's your rule
Hahaha you are right actually, I think OP needs to adjust a lot of things in this contest. What I was even thinking is that OP would have given a duration of time that the entries would last (like a week before the contest ends) then anyone that his guesses corresponds on the last day will be the winner because if it is left open till the last day it means that someone can actually wait till the die minutes before dropping their predictions. So OP should consider our opinion for transparency purposes and also to make the contest look moderated.

With how I understood the OP, people are given up to 24th of January to select.Now, this concept is just like prediction, were you predicts two clubs whom is to win or, just like Bitcoin price prediction which you will have to leave a price before 24th January. Whomever that predicted correctly will have to receive 50$. Now instead of that, you will only have to guess people's merits earnings to know how many merits they will end up having by that time, and if any applicants guess it correctly then that person wins. I think this is very simple as shouldn't confused everyone here as this is not what will twist people's Brain as its simple thing to make guess by just picking 3 names above and reply back here with what they would ends with.
Why una no add JayJuanGee for this list???

But Op, e for good make you allow us choose am as within range than to guess the exact number. I hope you get wet in I mean?

You can only pick minimum of 3 persons from the list above, and guess what their merits will end before 24th of January. After which take a screenshot of it and quote with your application on 25th January. Do not edit your submission after your entry. You can only quote while posting your screenshots.

Not only that, i also noticed even our own ogbonge Brainboss name was not included, which means nothing because there will be another chance for more inclusion subsequently after this first one.
I will like to applaud OP for the time taken and the efforts given to make up this amazing thread initiative, its something that comes with lots of fun and we are going to enjoy ourselves with cruiz on this, lets all show our respective ability on guessing.

Sorry I didn't picked him, maybe during our next contest by next year we would have to include him.I recognized everyone if by wanting to add everyone's name here wouldn't be enough to contain everyone as I am only picking few I know wouldn't find out play offensive. You can read back the OP.
Good luck!
I was also expecting I’d even see the likes or CryptopreneurBrainboss and Igebotz and many more that not just I believe are notable too.
Well, this is a cool one for fun bro, your idea make sense wella and people can play with it and see if they will win the money, below is my own prediction.

I applaud you for your initiative for creating this thread but I have observation, since you made mentioned of reputable members of the forum in your list, yo why didn't you move this thread to reputation section or meta section, I thought that you would have mentioned all the local reputable members because here is a local section.
Secondly, what will be the benefits of the people who earn highest merit, the answer is nothing, so my brother, for my personal suggestion this thread is not supposed to be created in local board since its not all made of call members.
