The message in-game was just changed. Might need to freeze the addition of new guesses. Lol. I was logging in to guess Monday 9/6 around 4pm but I have missed the window (in good faith, I wont submit that as a real guess)
your previous guess has not passed yet, so I won't add this one to the list yet. Thanks for notifying me Katy, I'll come check online for any new anouncements. I'll update the thread in a second.
I will allow this as the last guess for now since new update messages have been announced. The way things look now it seems like 607 will win, unless if Aikar and Chikeneer encounter some issues tonight. So to be clear for everyone: This thread is now on hold untill further notice, and no new guesses will be accepted for now.
Wow, I was expecting this game to keep going for at least another month. I didn't realise it was so close.
EMC just went offline to update (6 Sept. 2021, 1:55) meaning we might have a winner. Just going to wait for the update to finish before making it official, you never know what might go wrong. Damn, Katy is even faster than me in my own threads.
And there we go, EMC is back online and 1.17 is a fact. Meaning we have a winner: Luckily 607 had not made any new guesses so his 5 Sept was still valid. Had the server updated during normal restart hours it could have become a very close match between 607 and Azygos13. With only a few hours difference,the winner of the 1.17 cup is 607 (@607, you can pick up your prize at my res on SMP7, or leave it to be donated for 1.18 ) And with that, I'll put this game on hold untill 1.18 gets announced for EMC. I might have to update some rules for next time so feel free to post ideas and feedback in this thread untill then, but no new guesses will be accepted for now. I'll update this thread as soon as we start again, thanks for playing and untill then.
I had the thread up in my internet already. Game went down, it was open. Probably typed it at the same time as you. 😜
Wow! I was playing just for fun, but hey, winning is cool. Thanks! ... I tried to get on to pick up the prize but couldn't. Wrong client version.
I'm surprised how close my first and only guess was to becoming reality! I legit just posted that for a joke, but I'm genuinely surprised how close it was to becoming a reality!! Congrats 607 for being the closest~
