Come on folks we would like to see more people take a guess. Don't be shy

[Ryan]

Ill go with -36 since nobody else did

[Steve M]

Alright, here goes...-37, 15..Feb.

[Brad]

Alright, here goes...-37, 15..Feb.

Seems we have an exact duplicate - same temperature on the same date.

[Charlie]

now i have -35 and if some one puts in -35 on Feb 15 and the low temp for the month is -35 on Any day other then Feb 15 that means i have 27 days i can win and the one that put the 15Th has only 1 day they can win '

is that right

i did not pick the 15 of Feb

i was using it as an example


so does Any one has an answer to the quote above ?????????

[Brad]

Seems you got on the list with that post. You do have time time to finalize your guess.

My answer would be - if no one has the same temperature, you win for any day in the month.

However, if there are two people with the same temperature and one does not have a date, the one with a date is the winner. Since this would be a tie, the date is used as a tie-breaker. Only one person has a date.

[Bill O]

Yes, Brad is correct. The date is a tie-breaker. If two people pick the same temperature then who ever has the closest date wins. Here's an example:

Johny123 picks -24 on the 12th of February
Mikey345 picks -24 on the 15th of February

On the 27th it gets to -24 and that is the coldest of the month. Mikey345 wins because the 15th is closer to the 27th.

Sorry, I didn't intend to make this that confusing. If two people pick both the same temp and date they will have to work it. Don't make me cut the photo in half!

However, if there are two people with the same temperature and one does not have a date, the one with a date is the winner. Since this would be a tie, the date is used as a tie-breaker. Only one person has a date.

i think if some one picked a temp first for the month and does not put a date down then they should be the winner if the low temp does not fall on the date that some one that picked a date.
and if the low temp falls on the date that some one picked they win, the the person that was first to pick the temp for that month does not.

so by picking a date you are limited to that date .and if when the contest starts and you are the first to pick a temp that was not picked yet you have the edge .

if this is not right then there must be a rule that says you must pick a date .

then are limited to one temp and one date .....wright

[Gorque]
