“It has been a source of great pain to me to have met with so many among [my] opponents who had not the liberality to distinguish between political and social opposition; who transferred at once to the person, the hatred they bore to his political opinions.” —Thomas Jefferson (1808)

I wish I had told someone before doing it, but this morning when I saw this I said to myself "I'm going to wait to enter until I see @Bob_Luken online, and then guess a really high number so he can undercut me, because I just won a contest for being the worst at it thanks to @Trykflyr_1 and I didn't need to win this one also."
I feel like @Yakster is out of space, but still doesn't want to admit he needs another cooler/tupperdor. He's in the bargaining stage now with these contests. Hope the depression is short lived before the cooler purchase takes place post acceptance.
1. Chris said pick a number BETWEEN 1 and 100, so the possible selections are 2 through 99.
2. If Chris's Frank number generator picks something less than 50 (and my # is 8), then you once again had the worst guess, making you vulnerable to a dummy bomb.
It's a somewhat inside joke between me and @Bob_Luken when I tried to play the odds on a contest back in the day by picking a number that gave me something around a 33% chance of winning a contest with like 15 people, but he snuck in at the last minute by picking a number 1 away from me. I gave him a bunch of grief about it on vherf so now he tries to do it when he gets a chance. I just won a contest, so I tried to set him up and he took the bait. Then @Stubble just made it perfect by picking 102 to protect me from the dummy bomb. Now the only reason for @Yakster to bomb me is if he wants to trade, which is what it will be if he does.
I'll gladly bomb you Tuesday for an Opus today.

congrats on your good nature and stamina!
Using random.org generator in your honor, it says '97', I'll go with that.
Before I go to all the work of picking a number, I want to know why; what's in it for me?
Thanks for being a groovy part of this groovy family. Unlike me, the majority of your posts are meaningful and appropriate.

So Calvin picked 100? I shall pick 99.
I love when a plan comes together.
No backsies!

doesn't matter, Chris didn't say anything about a contest, just said pick a number.
102
Congratulation on 10k-4 Chris.
Thank you for all you do helping to guide us to the vherf and managing the lottery. Your insightful comments are always welcome and enjoyable read.
