The Shambles Rewteet contest ended last night. Now I have to pick a winner.

By my count, here’s the people who participated, in the order I wrote them down.

  1. @DemonGirly
  2. @GloriaWeber
  3. @allgeektout
  4. @Govneh
  5. @JKMyth
  6. @TonyNoland
  7. @bluinkalchemist
  8. @amandadadesky
  9. @DaveTheGame
  10. @filamena
  11. @davidahilljr
  12. @tkarakashian
  13. @ditransitive
  14. @GameThyme

I’ve numbered them, as you can see.

Here’s how we’ll pick the winner.

After Market Close, I’m going to take the DJI number from here, drop the decimal, and run a mod 14 on it. That will return us a number from 0 to 13. Add one to that number, look at the list above, and that’s the winner.

So, if the Dow closes at 10442, then The winner will be #13 – @ditransitive

Simple, right?

(my brain works in weird ways)

UPDATE: The Dow closed at 10366, making @bluinkalchemist the winner. Congrats!

  1. Are you saying I should indulge in insider trading to influence my shot at winning? :)

  2. I’m saying you should have 10 minutes ago. The markets close at 4.

    And based in the close I’m seeing right now, @bluinkalchemist would win. I’m going to give it an hour or so before declaring that result official, as I’ve seen the number get adjusted from last-minute totals before.
