Cyberevil: Might be easier on you OldFatGuy if you just allowed one set of guesses total per person... maybe 5 in this case so someone could try for each, or dump all 5 into one game etc.
Should at least make bookkeeping easier!
A fine GA in any case! Thank You.
Yeah, this advice was given above. Lots of times when people play "guess a random number between X and Y," especially when all they need to do is be the closest and not necessarily get the exact number, they feel they can gain strategic advantage by waiting to see others' guesses. Example, if you see a guess of 100 as being the largest guess late, then you may gain an advantage by simply guessing 101. So, I didn't want to potentially "disadvantage" posters who posted early. Should at least make bookkeeping easier!

What I'll do next time is allow everyone to make 10 total guesses, and they can break them up in posts as they wish. They can make all 10 in one post, they can make 10 one guess posts, or something in between. Always good to give those playing a choice.
