  1. Hm…
    I’d like to say this one’s easy, but now I’m having second thoughts…


  2. I wish there was a way we could find the answer immediately but be disqualified from the competition. …Or be emailed the answer after. just a thought


  3. Interesting idea Rob, I am thinking that would be impossible to implement since peoples honesty will vary. 🙂


  4. Rob, i don’t think that would be practical. It is too easy to make a second email account that isn’t related to the one that would be disqualified. That way the user could just email in the right answer from a different address…


  5. As many of you know I try to vary the difficulty of the guessed thing. Last week and this week I have attempted to make them very hard to guess. 🙂


  6. Psst. Shouldn’t the contest dates read “Dec 15-16”?


  7. *** *** *** **** attachment.


  8. Oh no. I am so sorry. I thought this was the way to make a guess. Please screen my comment.


  9. I apologize to you all. I just sent an email to Alan so he can remove my terrible mistake. Hopefully he can remove it. I am sorry and will refrain from any additional participation.
