I'm in at 2.74
But which rate will be used and at what time.
-
If no objections I will take the old CBF favourite Coinmill's rate at midday GMT on the 15th

I'll also split this to make a new topic for the compy
-
2.84 For me.. I am in...
-
2.62..... Count me in
-
2.87 - payment en route.....
-
Just a thought - should we be taking a leaf out of Shop Man's book and making it not 2.3eight or 2.36nine but 2.36ten.
That is predictions to 3 decimal places to avoid a tie.
-
2.75 for me
-
2.81 for me. Dosh on the way. :)
-
2.83 for me please. Money sent.
-
2.90 will transfer money this week
-
Nobody going anywhere close to H's 2.05 then :)
I'll say the closing date for predictions is 28th Feb. If there is no closing date people will wait till 14th July to guess :D
-
"If there is no closing date people will wait till 14th July to guess"
Not that it matters now :( but I wish I had thought of that
-

160606 2.87 has been taken. Page 1 shows what has been taken so far.
-
Perhaps we should find away for people to have the same number - afterall we don't want to restrict the number of people playing and gthere are bound top be people who want the same number.
I did suggest three decimal places earlier but I'm not sure coinmill runs to that.
-
I have just looked and Coinmill is 2 decimal places.
Yahoo Finance is to 3 so we could use that.
If thats the way to go I would sugest all guesses so far are taken to 3 decimal places by adding a zero to the end.
It's not my competition though so would need Scunner to change ruling if seen fit as he started it. ;)
Agree H that we should not restrict bidders as they are few and far between, ie less than 2% of the readers of the topic. :(
-
I have added all the guesses made while I was away to the list on the front page.
I will need another guess from 160606 - extra decimal places up to a maximum of four would be acceptable if someone has already taken your choice.
Can I say many thanks to everyone who has entered, I hope there will be more too :)
-
2.687 and I'll pp the money later
-
2.92 for me please. ;D
Oh, and while we're about it 39 degrees in July and 7 lira for an Efes. Hehehe.
Money's on its way.
-
2.673 please.
-
3 more added, thanks for playing Colwyn, Nichola and SuzzPuss.
SuzzPuss, the only person dreaming of a 7 lira Efes. It only seems like yesterday it was 1.75 for a draught Tuborg at Anna Bar...
-
Just in case anyone wants to be puddantic, with the 4 decimal places we will now check the result at Yahoo Finance
[ http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=GBPTRY=X&t=5d&l=on&z=m&q=l&c= ]
...and whatever the big number is at the top when I screenshot it at midday will be the answer. If it was right now, Jim Fraser would have won because it is 2.7402. But it is not right now so he doesn't win. Yet.
pud·dan·tic
/puˈdantik/
Adjective
Of, or acting like a big pudding.
-
Keith,
Can I have 2.695 please. Hopefully money has been sent
Thanks
-
You certainly can - and your support is appreciated :)
-
Can I have 2.77 please :)
Paypal payment sent.
-
And received - thanks Kevin. 2.77 is yours.
-
money sent ;D
-
Hi, is this still open?
-
We did say 28th Feb but I see no reason why we can't extend to 15th March. :)
-
Money sent 293.5 Good luck everyone
-
...and already arrived - thanks :)
I'll do you as 2.935 as 293.5 lira to the pound would be great for holidays but unlikely ;)
-
Well spotted and thank you!
-
As Les Dennis would say, if it's 293.5 I'll give you the money myself :D
-
If there are any late entries for the exchange rate game please do so before Monday morning as lines will be closed then :)
-
They can always join in the Grand National sweepstake that H is running if they miss out on this.
-
And the result is...
