Good job!

Special honorable mention to guppie for his original "mistake" guess of +292,000.

Thanks....but I feel bad that I talked guppie out of a winning guess.
Doubly bad that the change to the guess then put me in the winner's circle! :ugh::ugh1:

I really WAS trying to help out guppie cause the guess seemed to be way out there! Scouts honor! :sad6:

 

[tsptalk]

That's too funny. I didn't even make the connection that it was you who questioned guppies' pick.

How bad do you feel? Bad enough to give guppie "the cup?" :laugh::laugh::laugh:
