BYOAC'ers, it's about time I give something away to the community! I'm giving away a free marquee to the winner of this contest. You can choose any marquee that I offer, at any size.
Now for the rules...
- Just post any number in this topic between 1 and 100.
- One entry per person. Multiple entries will disqualify you.
- Contest ends on October 31st at 11:59PM EST, or once this topic reaches 100 entries, whichever comes first.
- Whoever is closest to the winning number chosen at random will be the winner. Being higher or lower than the winning number doesn't matter - it's who is closest.
- In the event of a tie, the person who posted first will win.
The number will be picked once the contests ends from this site: http://www.random.org/ (http://www.random.org/)
I'm doing this just to be nice and thought it would be fun. If the contest gets out of hand or if it shouldn't be allowed on here, then it will sadly be cancelled.

I was going to use 13 two, but that would get crowded :)
I doubt there will be a problem, but yit's your contest, you will have to sort it out.

"Some time ago a group of hyper-intelligent pan dimensional beings decided to finally answer the great question of Life, The Universe and Everything.
To this end they built an incredibly powerful computer, Deep Thought. After the great computer programme had run (a very quick seven and a half million years) the answer was announced.
The Ultimate answer to Life, the Universe and Everything is...

Pi.
On 06 December 2002 a team of nine researchers led by Professor Yasumasa Kanada at the Information Technology Center at Tokyo University announced they have calculated pi to 1,240,000,000,000 (1.24 trillion) places!
But I will round down and use 3.

I think we have just about 100 entries, about a week and a half ahead of schedule :P. The contest will end at midnight tonight EST. I'll use random.org to pick the number, and post the number along with the winner(s).
Get those last minute entries in. ;D

The contest is over as of this post. I'm going to draw the number and determine the winner in a few minutes :D
