    Default Win a Large Bone (Thelanis forum game)

    A free Large Bone (and potentially more, including Large Scale) to the winner of the following contest.

    Pick a number from 1 on up (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . ., 10, . . ., 20, . . ., 100) (whole numbers only please). The lowest number wins. If someone else picks the same number, that number is disqualified. For example, if you pick 1 and no one else does--you win. If someone else picks 1, we move on to 2, etc. The trick is to pick a fairly low number that you think no one else will pick (hmmm, maybe everyone will be too afraid to pick 1, but maybe someone else is thinking the same thing, hmmm).

    All numbers must be sent by PM (private message). Only one number per player. Any number posted in this thread will not count as a play. Winner and winning number will be announced. Large Bone (and other goodies) will be mailed or delivered in game to the winner.

    Round 4 on hold due to diminishing interest. To up the reward, the winner has the opportunity (not requirement) to meet me in game and roll a d100. A roll of 95-99 lets them pick any other large (except scale) and a roll of 100 gets a Large Scale.

    Round 1:

    Winner: Bekki
    Winning number: 1
    Prize: A Large Bone

    Round 2:

    Winner: cforce
    Winning number: 2
    Prize: A Large Bone & +1 dex tome

    Round 3:

    Winner: RTN
    Winning number: 1
    Prize: A Large Bone

It is like going to a museum and bragging about how fast you made it through. Or bragging about how fast you finished a good steak.

    Edit on the game results: I will post the winning number--but not post the stats. I will probably run a few rounds of this and I think posting the stats will make it less fun in future rounds. Better to keep everyone guessing as to the numbers and ranges people have picked.

    The winner is: Bekki

    The winning number, believe it or not, is 1

    I have to quote from Bekki's PM

    "I always say... Go big or stay home."

    Congrats!

    Round 2 has an increased reward potential. The winner has the opportunity (not requirement) to meet me in game and roll a d100. A roll of 95-99 lets them pick any other large (except scale) and a roll of 100 gets a Large Scale.

    Could you also include the number of disqualified numbers per run? I'm curious.

    I am going to avoid giving exact details there as well, to keep the challenge to a max--but as a hint--many numbers between 1 and the mid-20s were disqualified on Round 1.
