** guess the correct combination **

Tonight, I will have with me:

A) Pajamas

B) A teddy bear

C) A hot water bottle

D) My blankie (confused?)

E) A pillow

F) Socks

G) A set alarm clock (next to the bed)

H) A warm hat

rules:
Send 5k to CR-2 Mule
please include the letters in your guess (for easier processing)
winner gets all money sent, plus a bit. No partial prizes... all or nothing.

disclaimer: I wont have time to go through all the posts tomorrow morning, so it may take a while... be patient and review what others have chosen before you, refunding duplicate guesses is a hassle.

how many items are you taking? or is that part of the fun...

a,b,d,e,f,g.
chelon (ElvenBlackMage) 218.14.73.189 maulaxe (CR-2 Mule) $5000
would be nice if you give some clue... like where you live,how old are u or how many items.... now it is 1-8 items + combation. Better chance than wining power ball?

So, beyond why you are wearing a hat and socks to bed, what's the question?

I believe there are 255 possible combinations of sleep accessories, so the chance that someone guesses the correct combination is pretty low.

Also, by blankie, do you mean the small sort that children drag around (as in that cartoon), or a full-sized blanket on you bed?

AdminShade January 24 2006 10:07 AM EST

so in effect, you could try all 256 possibilities, for $1,280,000 and win it + a bit? :p

Maelstrom January 24 2006 10:13 AM EST

Well, the 256th combination would be to pick none of those accessories, though I suppose it is a possibility. Maulaxe, please tell us you have A) at least ;)

OK...

5 of those are true. since this is new information, those who guessed before may change their guesses. Sorry for not thinking ahead : )
chelon - 1guess paid for
ForgeBird - 1 guess paid for

D refers to the kind Linus has, not a large bedspread.

a b d e g
a d e f g

ForgeBird still has paid guess.

just to let u know dont u think people will just wait forever (until last minute) and then make all possible guesses... at this point i could do it right now and it would be so funny cus i would make money...

Maelstrom January 25 2006 5:17 PM EST

8 choose 5 = 56, so there are still plenty of possibilities...

maulaxe January 26 2006 8:05 PM EST

so far all the guesses have included...
G) A set alarm clock

so I'll just come right out and say it:
yep.

I did set my alarm clock.

forgetting transfer fees? :P

maulaxe January 29 2006 10:39 PM EST

This seems to have died...

Maybe I'll have better luck next time.

I'll send back the entry fees to all.
