<p>[QUOTE="Sulla80, post: 6475699, member: 99456"]A great coin with that "je ne <i>sais</i> quoi" (patina? style? texture? sheer massiveness?...), that sets it apart! Thanks to some insight from members after round 2 - I have made more updates to my prediction engine. A "deception factor" has been added to cross-reference <i>cookies</i> and evaluate the deviousness of esteemed contributing members, and a normalization factor now accounts for the reality that all coins have been or will be owned by [USER=57495]@zumbly[/USER]. The estimated probabilities of ownership for Coin #3 are:</p><ul> <li>51.7% probability [USER=84744]@Severus Alexander[/USER] <br /> </li> <li>28.5% probability [USER=105389]@bcuda[/USER]</li> <li>19.8% probability [USER=83845]@Curtisimo[/USER]</li> </ul><p>We can confidently rule out the first choice as "invalid option" and I guess I have another insect to track down in the coming days.
