Money in a photo bingo [updated 17.08.2006]

Post by Klazu »

Here's a new funny competition!

One at a time everyone is able to post a picture money. Then everybody else try to guess how much money is in that picture. So remember to take photos of your piles and mark down the amount of money for yourself. :wink:

Rules :idea:

- One photo at a time under guessing.
- One guess per photo per user.
- The photo poster decides with answer is right - the first right answer gets a point (I update the list here).
- Poster of a picture decides when the guessing for his photo ends. Only after this a new photo is able to be posted here.
- If there's not any active guess for long time, the poster or I may end the current guess and let others be placed.
- Photo poster always tells us after the correct answer to his picture, how many points and which users did gain. (new)

Side bingo :idea:

You may score a point from guessing right the total amount of money. But you may also score a point by telling us how many notes or how much money the picture has in every denomination.

- This depends on photo poster knowing the exact amount himself.
- Photo poster must state if side bingo is active with his photo.

Remember :idea:

- Don't name the picture file with the amount of money (like 750.jpg).
- Don't post too large images - shrink them to fit a normal screen.
- Read the rules.
- Chat in this topic is allowed.
- See some short examples here, here and here.

This is just an example (the picture above doesn't have this amount). Everybody else are able to post one guess per photo like this:

The photo has 1450€ and which is is divided into :note-5: 450€ and :note-10: 1000€.

If this guess is totally right, it's worth 2 points. If only one of the guesses is right, then it's worth 1 point.

You got the idea? :)

:note-5: 1500€ + :note-10: 2000€ + :note-20: 2000€ = 5500 €

Maybe too much..

This bingo may sometimes include even days between the right answer and the photo poster telling us that. This is understandable and we have to live with it.

The photo poster may chat with the guessers but relating to the bingo he shouldn't tell anything but when the right answer is said. There's no need to tell after every guess that it's wrong. So one has to assume that his guess is wrong when not told otherwise. :idea:

This is just example chat: Yup, you're guessing too much. I wish I was so wealthy. Remember pejole, you're not able to guess anymore with this photo.

It may take even longer if there isn't a round value (something like €3175)


Anyway, my guess: :note-5:€600 :note-10:€1000 :note-20:€1000
TOTAL: €2600

This is true. Maybe it would be good idea if the photo poster would give some hints if the game seems not to progress. I don't know. My value here is pretty round. I still think it's ok if one "round" takes even a week. That's reasonable time IMHO because I think there won't be so many photos around at least in the beginning.

I may hint that the guesses on total value are getting very close now but the sidebingo guesses are pretty far.

Maybe in those odd-number cases we could round it to the nearest hunder or something.
