The Summer Forecast: Blimey Cow Finale!

Post by American Eagle »

THE SUMMER FORECAST
The Lounge! | Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | Week 6 | Week 7 | Week 8 | Week 9 | Week 10 | Finale!

My friends, it is finally the final week of the forecast! Let's finish this with a bang. \:D/

Unfortunately, a whole bunch of distant relatives showed up to my family reunion last Saturday. Don't you just hate that? :( I counted a total of 43 people, which is far above the range I suggested and more than 10 above the highest prediction, so no tickets were won last week. Oh well.

Image
Week 10: How many views will Blimey Cow's newest video get by next Monday?
The most recent video is called "Seven Ways to Make a Guy's Day" and it is supposed to be posted sometime this afternoon. It is a sequel to last week's video, "Seven Ways to Make a Girl's Day", which is currently at 108,734 views after seven days. Will the sequel fall flat or build upon the first one? I have no idea.

Since the viewcount could be anywhere from 50,000 - 130,000, this week's scoring will be a little different:
  • The closest prediction will receive 3 tickets.
  • The second closest prediction will get 2 tickets.
  • The third, fourth and fifth closest predictions will get 1 ticket each.
Grand Bonus: I am compassionate towards Moontide, Shen,TKD, Tiger and T.S. who haven't won a single ticket all summer long. >_> I don't believe in parity, but I believe in cinderella stories. Therefore, everyone who plays in this round will get 1 ticket, just for participating, no questions asked. \:D/ This is on top of the other prizes.

Forecast Tickets for Week 10
  • 6 Tickets
    Knight Fisher, Monty, Sunshine, Woody

    5 Tickets
    ~JCGJ~, Marvin D.

    4 Tickets

    3 Tickets
    Aftershocker, bookworm, Eugene the second, Fang-wa, Graces4you, Jehoshaphat, Laura Ingalls, snubs

    2 Tickets
    Christian A., godisawesomeness99, Jesus' Princess, Musical Shutterbug, Petrichor, radgeek, Termite

    1 Ticket
    Brad, Joanne, Joy, Skylerbuck, Taps

    0 Tickets
    Moontide, Shennifer, The Kings Daughter, TigerintheShadows, T.S. (myself)
I plan to close this topic on Wednesday at Midnight EST. That's the posted deadline. However, I'm going to be on vacation, so if I can't close it at that exact time, consider this week open until it is locked. ;) I should be returning from vacation sometime on Monday, so I will check the viewcount as soon as I am able on Monday.

If it were just in the first 24 hours, I could just say 301, and hit the nail on the head. :P :mrgreen:

I'll say 107,301 views within the first week.

95, 100 is my prediction

and thanks for having pity on me, AE. The reason I didn't get a ticket all week is partly because I only guessed once and it was wrong.
I didn't play any of the other weeks, so it's really my fault I don't have any.

Either you are a terrible predictor, or you made a typo. Please recheck this. :)

I hereby take away all of Shen's points because she ignored this game for 8 of the weeks!! :x

I was feeling in good company, and then Shen posted

I've guessed multiple times and was wrong. Ah well, good comfort while it lasted. ^.^

Thank you for pity! ;) 124,000 views.
