There's some funny counting going on here. Are we sure Seafood knows how numbers work?

That's fine, p. sure it's worth a days probation anyway

In fact, mathematically either cantaloupe or endorph are the winners because nothing happened to the other guy's 27

littleorv chose the bad apple number, which doesn't have to be near the actual winning number to get a probation

It's Canteloupe. If it was Endorph, I'd have gotten a six, and so would 27.

It's not the Really Bad Apple because he got six not 3 days.

Big congrats to cantaloup e

Bad Seafood: Dec 10, 2010; If you must blink, do it now.

I was gonna wait for another hour to turn but since you guys have figured it already, yes, Yes_Cantaloupe wins.

The "Worst" apple was 68, which nobody picked but two of you danced around. Littleorv and Ceramics both picked bad apples and will get slapped with sixers. Endorph picked a worse apple and will be slapped with a daily. Since I done goof'd and accidentally declared Senerio the winner of bingo night when they weren't, their consolation prize is being pardoned from picking the other worse apple.

Thanks for playing, all. We'll do one more game tomorrow.

Maybe have some random 6 hr ones for the next game that aren't surrounding the real number so that it potentially lasts longer.

I wanted the first game to be quick, but that's actually a pretty good idea. We'll do that for second game.

You can post as much as you want until the daily kicks in.

maybe give out the day long probie after tomorrow so endorph has a chance to get 2 days prob?

Locking until it's time for the next game.

Bad Seafood: Dec 10, 2010; If you must blink, do it now.

It's time.

Be sure to give the rules a quick glance since a few of them have been slightly altered.

Bad Seafood posted:

The Rules
Pick a number, any number between 1 and 100 (yes, including 1 and 100).

One of these numbers is our lucky winner. Choose correctly and win a free avatar!

However, the two numbers immediately surrounding our winner are both losers. Choose either of them and get probated for a day!

Likewise, with the exception of the winner, the three numbers closest in proximity to the losers are bad by association. Choose any of them and get probated for six hours.

There are also three just generally bad apples floating around on their own. Picking them will also get you slapped with a sixer.

Finally, tucked away among the rest lies one really, really bad apple. Avoid picking this one or you'll get probated for three days.

You can pick a second number after an hour has passed. Pick a second number before an hour has passed and get probated for six hours regardless of how close to picking the winner you were - even if you picked the winner!

Once an hour on the hour I will swoop through the thread to check for winners, losers, and hand out probations.
If any of that was confusing, consider this: imagine 50 is the winner. Picking 50 will net you a free avatar. Picking 49 or 51 will get you probated for a day. Picking 46, 47, 48, or 52, 53, 54 will get you probated for six hours. Picking 45 or 55 gets you nothing, but at least you didn't get probated.
