120,000zp=POWERBALL Slinky style:D!
For those of you who didn't participate this thread is where this alllllll started:

Where people had to guess how many cards where in this stack. For obvious reason I didn't include this picture but more obscure ones.

Because I was so excited about this contest I decided I am going to do this every other week coinciding with my paychecks from work. I will take out 20 dollars each paycheck and put 10,000 zp up for grabs and the other 10 dollars will be for 10,000 zp to be put into a powerball pot. This started last week so there is 10k in the pot at the moment. This means that next week if the person guessing the item gets the exact number (or maybe 5 within, I haven't decided yet) gets the pot or 20k zp. I am doing this until I leave for the navy June 13. That counts 10 total times this will happen which means $100=120,000 zp (12000 bp) up for grabs.
I should mention that at the end the powerball pot becomes the prize so someone is going to win all the money for certain, It could be one person winning big in the end or 10 people winning 20k zp etc. To be clear the last game, if no one gets the previous pot, could be for $100 simply for guessing how much of something is in a picture. This is turning into something beautiful. I want your ideas, besides upping the prize pool -_-, on things to be guessing or how to make this run smoother etc.

Do you not have real friends you could spend this money on? Just wondering..
Miss the big picture much? I actually do this to my friends as well. I hold up jars of jelly beans and if they guess the right answer I give them 20 dollars.JUST BUY BATTLEFlELD 3 GODDAMN YOU SIR!
(I time traveled for this one) You want to play battlefield with me? It that what they are calling "it" these days. -
So every other week, with 20k ZP as a prize (10k is the powerball lottery, 10k is the contests' prize)
Prize at end of contest is either powerball or regular prize?
And the poweball pot WILL be the prize for the final contest.
And if nobody goes for the poweball pot... Letting it grow until the end, we can potentially have the pot @ $100? Damn!
Great!
Ideas for guessing:
How many hairs on an arm (lol I just looked at myself for an idea)
How many leaves on a branch or branches on a tree
-
You got it sir. I would like the items preferably to be things that I can count in a few minutes so the deliberation process will be a few minutes after the contest closes. I know how people don't like suspense in these types of things. I don't like to know the answer a head of time so people wont bug me.So every other week, with 20k ZP as a prize (10k is the powerball lottery, 10k is the contests' prize)

A handful of sand -.-
Okay okay I'll stop lol.
Real idea: A stack of playing cards... but NOT at 52 -.-
The kicker would be having them all face down with their backsides meshing together to blur out any outlines
Bonus points for those that guess the face-up value (i.e. King of Hearts) of each card -.-
Bonus can be a collective effort I suppose
I guess something along the lines of playing cards.

Hmm... Interesting. I will certainly keep this in mind. I like the idea of bonus things for people to guess besides just a number.
