Title: How many .22 in this container?
Post by: jc2721 on June 11, 2013, 12:48:30 PM: OK, here's my second game: how many rounds of .22 LR are in this tofu container? Winner will be the exact number or closest guess (above or below the actual total).

There IS an object buried in the container (Game 3 is figuring out what is the object, but that game will not start until after Game 2 is concluded).

RULES: one guess per member, per day. I'll give everyone 3 chances at it, so the game will end in 3 days (Friday 8 p.m.)

If someone is within 2 rounds (above or below) of the actual total on the first day I will declare them the winner.

At the beginning of Day 2 (whenever I get to my computer that day) I'll announce whomever is the second closest to the actual total (that will narrow it down some, but not give it away).

At the beginning of Day 3 I'll announce whomever is the closest to help narrow it down further.

Winner will be announced at 8 p.m. Friday. Prize will be one box of Norinco steel cased 7.62 X 39 ammo I found in my ammo boxes.

Pictures will follow in the next post due to technical difficulties:

Post by: 2aHawaii on June 11, 2013, 01:25:19 PM: Nice. Looks like the same amount that'll fit into a .22 bulk pack. I'll say 525.

Post by: jc2721 on June 13, 2013, 08:22:28 AM: Day 3--the closest guess so far is 875 (Myanmar1) You all have one guess left.

At first I was going to wait until 8 p.m. Friday to announce the winner, but in thinking it over I've decided to declare the winner tomorrow morning around this time, give or take.
So, you have 24 hours to make your final guess--good luck!
