Last Man Standing, Day Three.

Tikay10

We began with 98 runners, we are down to 25.

It feels like hard work for a £22 UKOPS seat, but it's free, & if we can get a winner who goes on to make a few bob in the event, it'll be just the ticket.

ONLY the following can make an entry today (Friday), any others will not be valid.

Today's question?

You have to guess how many runners this evening's (Friday) £5.50 MINI Event @ 8.30pm will attract.

2 clues;

It is £2,500 Guaranteed, & so needs 500 to cover.

Last week it attracted 579, week before 564, week before that 608.


Easy enough then. 

NEAREST 13 ( & ties) go through.
 
Entries close at 8pm sharp. 

Entries AFTER 8pm will be void.

Guys....we are doing this all wrong. Taking on board FCHD lateral thinking from yesterday.....we should all submit the same answer.....ergo, we will all be correct! (or technically, all incorrect...mmmm)

#beatthesystem.

My guestamation will follow this evening after my team of crack mathematicians have worked out the formula.

Ahh, you've not accounted for my secret tie break system.

If all 25 submit the same answer, it goes in order of time posted.

So you best hurry up......

RE #beatthesystem...

Even without Tikays tiebreak, doesn't seem much merit in having 25 winners if there is only one prize?

The optimum strategy is clearly to be the 25th poster and post the median guess.

Or you could just treat it as a bit of fun.

Phantom has unearthed my cunning plan. Anyway, list so far*.....
