If everyone had guessed too early, you should pick one day above the maximum date bid so far. That way you would always be closest, and could not go over, if you were right about the other predictions.

If you bid 01.01.2100, you would be over until 01.01.2100.

But on TPIR, you only bid $1 over the highest bid unless you think everyone has guessed too low, not too high.

If person 1 bid $43,770 and person 2 bid $44,138 and the actual retail price was $43,910, then person 1 wins.
Right?
Spoiler: show
Those are the dates converted to numbers via Excel.
Rick wins.

If your guess is 50, my guess is 75, and the answer is 74, you win.

No longer accepting new guesses. One of the people below will win the $100.

I think Platy put it clear here (directions above) and now it's time to pay up, which I'm sure he will do. But if I were him, I'd wait 'till after this thing really drops cause ya never know....
