Guess that Episode Number!

Post by King Butter Turtle »

THE GAME - Here's how it works - I'll list 20 episodes - you simply P.M. me what you think each of their numbers is. Obviously looking them up isn't allowed but, we'll do it on the honors system. For each episode, you'll get one point for each number you were off and you'll lose 25 points if you get it exactly. After adding up all 20 episodes, whoever has the lowest score will win. \:D/

THE DEADLINE - Uh, let's say... the 15th - that is, Saturday, December 15th, 2012 at Midnight Eastern Time. :)

THE PRIZE - Whatever amount of money I happen to have at the time. \:D/

Here goes nothing.

I'm glad to have inspired this. It will certainly be interesting. There are only a few that I know for sure.

You did. \:D/ If you hadn't, you're score would have been even worse. ;)

The bonus probably should have been greater but, honestly, I was expecting people to do much better than they did :anxious: so, I thought 25 would be more significant. :shrugs:
