Just got mine in about 30 mins ago. Looks like the price has squeaked in under 630.95, which means I might end up with a positive score... 0.1 to be precise ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Ten minutes left to stay under $630.95 and net me 0.5472 points. I'm bristling with anticipation!
It's all over! Price for the end of May: $627.80. 0.5472 points for me!

You mean when the price approached $630, we were panicking over nothing? That's disappointing. So when do we get to see the leaderboard? I don't care about my absolute score, only my score relative to the other contestants'. That's the only thing that matters!

great ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I admit I had some luck. But this is exactly the reason why I forced myself to give some additional percentages to the upside. Bitcoin always tends to be bullish on average. Hope next time the exchange rate will again exceed my expectations ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Waiting for the "orange sheet" so we can create new charts ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Good luck to all!

Waiting for the "orange sheet" so we can create new charts ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Tomorrow, son, tomorrow ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I can wait, dad, I'm just excited ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Meanwhile, I decided this. If I win, I will redistribute some of the entrance fees to the participants who are not excluded due to the -20 rule. The number of participants is relatively low, so it would be a bummer for the other people if they are in a nice third place and don't have a consolation prize. According to the rules, this is the current distribution 1. 100 + 720 + 240 = 1060 mBTC 2. 100 + 240 = 340 mBTC I calculated that the reward would drop below 1 BTC if we have 9 participants or more. In that case, at least 3 people will get a prize and this redistribution won't take place ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I will redistribute everything I get above 1 BTC with this system (so 8 participants or less): *if there are 2 prizes distributed, the thrid place will receive everything I have above 1 BTC, with a maximum of 50% of the ammount the second place gets *if I am the only winner, the second place will receive 50% of what I get above 1 BTC (with a maximum of 250 mBTC) and the third place will get 25% (with a maximum of 125 mBTC) the remaining ammount will be donated to Risto. => The maximum ammount I can win is 1 BTC. Good luck to all ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) edit: this means that, currently, there is a 60 mBTC third prize ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I could decide on deviding the remaining part (if any) to all other people who are still in the running in stead of donating it to Risto. But I want to point out that i'm not the winner. Just started with a nice lead ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) We will see how it plays out, maybe I get eliminated next time LOL

According to the rules, this is the current distribution
1. 100 + 720 + 240 = 1060 mBTC 2. 100 + 240 = 340 mBTC
Not quite. The rules don't specify what happens when there's a tie, probably because a tie is damned unlikely after all 36 predictions. But just in case, I propose tied contestants receive the average of what they would have got if there wasn't a tie (ie, bluemoon and I would each receive 170 mBTC). We are actually tied for second place and that's not just a rounding error, right?
