    Alright. So I've been thinking...... (this is not always a good thing).
    TS Richard is currently sitting in the Carribbean churning up a lot of water.
    Why does this matter you ask?
    Because out of those who guessed, I am opening this contest back up for a second hurricane. I think it will make landfall before October 31st so if anyone who guessed already would like to update their day of landfall (you CANNOT updated the category or place), or update the silver price for that time, please feel free. This contest is officially REOPENED until October 31st for Tropical Storm Richard.
    I figured since the last one didn't make US landfall, I'd reopen it.
    The prize probably won't be much but it ought to be fun anyways.
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    Here's the ones of you who are eligible to guess:
    Krispy
    Jallengomez
    Park Quarters
    Camlov2
    Swish 513
    Cookiemonster12
    Wledswift
    andyscouse
    Dok U Mint
    Coinmaster1
    Wazzapenning
    ddoomm1

    And, since he was only off by 57 minutes
    Duke

    Best of luck to all. And remember, all you can change is the day and price of silver. All rules are the same.

    Thanks,
    Tyler

    On 10/01/10, I guessed:


    Updated guess:


    1. October 26, 2010
    2. Category 3
    3. Corpus Christi, Texas
    4. $20.86/oz.


    I believe I read correctly that it was okay to also guess a new price of silver. I'm guessing we see about a 10% pull back, maybe not in the next five days if landfall hits on this date, but it looks like a correction is taking place. Who knows...

    Thanks for the second chance. :)

    No problem on the second chance guys. Honestly I was disappointed in the last system. I was hoping for something better.
    And yes, you can change the price of silver. :)

    .........
    Richard did not make US landfall. Which sucks.
    Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
    That #2 on the map up there Krispy so nicely put for us is the next best chance of a US landfall.
    So............
    In the effort of trying to get a US landfall, I will once more extend my contest until November 31st. You can change anything and hopefully a few more people will migrate back to this thread. Sorry to those of you who would probably like this to be over but I am really trying to pull a US landfall out of this.
    In an interesting weather forecast though: snow in the apps around 11/11

    I'm still playing... was wondering where we left off after the last one, but I'm glad we can extend the contest now... will recalculate and think of a new guess shortly. Thank you for continuing to host this contest.
