I THINK I fixed ya GPappy... Check and let us know.

Street Rod just didn't read all the stuff prior and since you didn't add yourself back in quickly, it got missed. I know Fracture should have fixed it but he must have just Guessed and Dashed....

Folks!!!
Proper Guessing Techniques


1 - GO TO BAT GUESS THREAD

2 - REFRESH PAGE IMMEDIATELY (Wouldn't hurt to read a few prior post to make sure doing crazy is going on and fixes to be made)

3 - MAKE YOUR GUESS QUICKLY BY COPY AND PASTING THE LAST LIST WITH THE RULES AND THE LINK

4 - REFRESH THE PAGE AGAIN AFTER YOUR GUESS IS POSTED

5 - DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE NOBODY POSTED DURING THAT TIME AND THAT ALL PRIOR GUESSES ARE THERE.


DONE!!!

Thanks Big Swole. I was on my way home when I saw the dropped guess and this phone is good for quick notes but not for formatting guesses.

I've sometimes noticed a significant delay when refreshing after posting, so check a couple of times to make sure no one posted before you.

I dig this car, guessing it will do well with a popular color combo, ragtop in spring time, manual, low miles, and now that they actually cleaned the engine compartment. $66k

This is almost identical to my 2008 (Midnight Blue/Black w/ Stone Grey Interior/19" Turbo Wheels/32k miles) that I am selling. Curious to see what this fetches. Not selling the BaT route.

For this listing my guess is $58,000

Sheesh, that engine bay! I don't understand why sellers don't do the free and easy things before submitting and posting pictures. Filthy engine bay, and other things other sellers do like unvac'd carpets, etc. Those things cost the seller lots of money but they do not realize it. I'm going lower here.

SO HERE'S HOW I SAW IT ON THE FRACTURE DQ!!


Y'all please let me know if you agree or disagree. We made that rule for a reason. Here's the timeline. Fracture PM'd me and didn't understand why I DQ'd him.



.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

















Make sure I have it right though: (using EST)

7:06 - GPappy made his guess

7:16 - You made your guess and dropped GPappay from the list somehow

7:43 - GPappy posted and asked you to put his guess back in there (since he didn't correct it himself, it caused further issues)

7:47 - I made my post about the "rules" when people drop folks

8:06 - street rod made his guess that left out GPappy due to the wrong list from when Fracture dropped him

8:11 - Ilovemaui made his guess , also without GPappy

8:48 - GPappy made a post to street rod because he chose GPappy's guess of 60K and was explaining it got dropped by Fracture

8:56 - I Fix the list with GPappy being dropped, give him his orig. guess of $60K and move street rod up by $250 but giving him the ability to change it since it's wasn't really his fault for the drop.

9:08 - GPappy post and thanks me for fixing it.

9:10 - I post a hopefully accurate list for the game to continue (with the DQ msg. to you and the msg. to street rod that he can change his if he wishes)

9;40 - Fracture EDITS his original post to include GPappy (Thank you, but after the fact isn't how the rule works that the group came up with)

9:41 - Fracture posts to GPappy that he edited his list and added him back in.
