I am sorry I dont get it.

Jeff · 10-30-2003, 09:17 PM

"Members: 2,273" presently, Elefekt.
He is asking that you pick the date when the 2,500th member joins the Namepros Forum. The "Friendly Wager" NP$'s goes in to a pool ... from which the eventual correct predictor, as well as the actual 2,500th member receives the proceeds.

Of course, I can't "wager" ... but I will add 250 NP$'s to the "pot"!
PS. Note the betting *stops* at the 2,401st membership.
Thanks.

Simple, the closer it gets to 2,500 ... the easier it is to predict the date, theoretically. This "deadline" levels the playing field for all of those wishing to make a "Friendly Wager", enough time in advance.

Let's clarify what time zone should be used (PST/EST/GMT). We nearly had an issue with that last time around. We used GMT before, that should work this time too.
