Can we PLEASE do something besides random number guessing? Sorry, there just isn't any fun in it.

Sorry, But this seems to be the best and fairest way to do it.
Regardless of your age, background or education.
Maybe after Christmas we'll try a harder one.......edit..............ooops.......:bunny:

I agree with Rea on the number picking...

it is the fairest way, everyone gets as much chance of winning as anyone else.

Contests with questions only seem to be as good as how fast you can look things up in Google. Or would rule out certain members due to age/worldly experience and education.

Just my 0.02$ worth :)

I did not realize that the idea was to not reward people for having knowlege or experience. Silly me I guess.

Have fun with your random guessing.... Too much excitement for me, so I will sit it out.

Random Guessing???? :eek:

I'll have ya' know that a lot of work and knowledge goes into the selection of the possible winning numbers! :P

Some of the members have spent a lot of time setting up a number generator and have to modify it each week cuz' Kev and Rea change the number range. :rolleyes:

Personally . . . I've worked very hard to be one number off and lose every time.:banghead:

This kinda contest isn't about who is the brightest, fastest or googliest. :P It's just a way to help generate interest in XPC and FAD, really. So a lotto with random numbers is probably the best way for this, and it solves a lot of the issues that might arise for different members in different countries (let's have questions on Australian history, eh? ;) ).

If you wanna get competetive for real, and IRC trivia bot trivia competition may be the way to go, SJ (hint, hint). Then I'll just call Whir and he can win 'em all! :D

Anyhow, here's my numbers (300 to 500, remember, everyone? ;)

Thanks Kev, I do feel better. I sweated it out (I hope).
I stayed in bed Fri. evening, worked Sat. morning, then got back in bed around 2 and was there for about 20 hours until this morning. Can't be sick for Christmas.
