No, my little Problem Child, you may not change you guess once it has been posted! I'm keeping track of the ORIGINAL guesses here. IF you won, I might have mailed your own Garden Helper to you, but now you'll never know what kind of compost you'll get if you win... :p

March 5 12:00 noon.

For winning is the time component need to be dead on or is it the closest one without going over?

Re: Almost 5000? #100993 November 15th, 2004 at 12:49 AM A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A i think it is just the closest, without regard to going over... ie. if you said 12:30 and i said 12:45 and it was 12:42, i'd still win. at least that is how i think it is supposed to work.
