So you'll have twice as many reasons to complain when you don't win?

It took long enough for you to guess the 1st time. By the time you guess a second pick the next contest will be around.

There is a list, which has been updated to ixnay.

By tradition I am bound to ask you to pick one (1) and only one (1) date. Both January 20th and February 3rd are free, btw.

Wow those dates fill in quickly, with most of late December and January gone I am going for a longshot....

February 17

p.s. I would still like to see someone compile a list of those curious enough to ask the question and perhaps a summary of their posts........generally along the lines of:

1st post to start thread: Does anyone know........

2nd post in thread (usually post #50+): What are you people talking about and how come no one is answering my question ???

I find those to be the best part of the whole joke!

...makes both the thread, conmcb25's posts in the thread, and the date he picked quite the coincidence?

Though his cryptic post later makes me wonder if he was toying with all of us?....

Well there appears to be one free day in January left - the last day 31^st of January

But I think it's a booring day - so let's move forward one month to last of february.

So I'll choose the very best day of all possible days feb 28 - my birthday

See chosing the day - it's all about logic and brains...

P.S. I'll pick (=reserve) this date for next competition too
(There will be one new winner during the chritmust ...)

Yep its about darn time you guys figured it out.

My 14 year old son is scaeva, he has been playing CIV on and off but in the last six months or so his interest has increased. He really likes TAM and he and I LAN that together every once in a while. Last weekend his cousins were down for Thanksgiving and his birthday and they were all playing TAM via the LAN, and I was going from one computer to another telling them how to REX what techs to research, etc.

So I told him a while back why dont you register at Apoly and start checking the threads and asking questions. Well he finally got around to registering in early November. And I was bugging him to register before his birthday on Nov 27th for obvious reasons

And I was really oversees pretty much the entire month of October with limited internet access, so I missed the October guess.

So yes, I rigged the guess on game that was already expired so I could win absoulutely nothing.

Actually Im kind of surprised Ming didn't call bull crap earlier because he is the one I talked to about letting my son register since we share the same ISP. But then Ming does deal with a LOT of us goofballs so him missing it is not that surprising I guess.

OK now that I have told all and provided tons of side entertainment during this guessing period, does that mean I get a second guess?

what those number signify is not your posting stats.

The A number refers to how much of a troll you are. The higher the number, the more trollish you are.

The D number represents your politcal leanings. The higher the number, the more liberal you are.

The M number represents how many DL's you have.

and the HP represents how many double posts you have made.
