guys, I am on vacations and I have a slow connection here.

First of all I want to thank you so much all of you for being part of this contest. So yes its bill gates. And because I dont have my camera here and I dont want to let you wait until I will cone back in 5 days, I will say a number that will come to my head and this number will win the prize.

So the number that wins is the number 45 that is my age. I hope that more than 45 people found the right answer, so the number 45 is ok.

I will try to find who the number 45 is but please help me on this because my connection is not good at all:)

Bill Gates

Well if I count it right this is the 45th guess on Bill Gates and the winner.....

After doing a search for "Bill Gates" and counting from the first post to #45 . . .

I also get "voodoochild59" as the winning post . . . Just Sayin' . . . :D

So - CONGRATULATIONS . . . :thumbs:

AND again - THANKS "Imeo" :D (although I still think you deserve the :img: Award for this one . . .;)) and I hope You and Your Family Have FUN on the Vacation - Sir . . . :banana:

There was at least one person who guessed "William "Bill" Gates" and doing a search for just "Bill Gates" won't catch those....you have to manually go through and count to catch all eligible and valid posts.

:)

Just sayin'.

Yep - As always "You" are right, excpet that particular post did come up on the search I did . . . ;)

Now the one thing I did not take into consideration was any double post as was mentioned though . . .

Mark Zuckerberg

**I accidentally posted bill gates twice, please forgive me Imeo**

So - With that put into consideration - it seems as though it is . . .

Bill Gates

Congratulations - "SSG" . . . :thumbs:

Okay - I'm done and out of here see everyone next month for another - FANTASTIC GG CONTEST . . . :D

Oh and - "Hillbillie" Thanks . . . :thumbs:

BTW: I only used "Gates" - No Bill Nor William - Just Gates . . .

Total number of post with "Gates" = 90

Deduct all post after Contest hit 1000 - You have 76 Entries

Begining with "eCig" (07-01-2013, 09:33 AM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest.html#post9973906) and ending with "Shilo" post (Yesterday, 01:43 AM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest-23.html#post10011023)

Now - Deleting the one additional post by "negrete35" as they mentioned (07-02-2013, 02:11 PM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest-8.html#post9985601) 1st post (07-02-2013, 01:25 AM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest-5.html#post9981912) and the 2nd post (07-02-2013, 09:19 AM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest-7.html#post9983554) . . .

That would make Post #45 . . .

"SSG" (07-02-2013, 04:47 PM http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/gg/437064-july-gg-contest-9.html#post9987031) The Winner . . .

The only diffference would be if "Imeo" by his :rules: decleared both post "invalid" since "negrete35" post the same name twice . . .

Then the "Winner" would be . . .

According to the information I found and "My" limited counting ablities . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

And - If I am "incorrect" - Well so be it . . . I am done . . . :D

Hey - "Imeo" I guess it is in "Your" ball court to declear a "WINNER" NOW . . . ;)

AND - Whoever "WON" - Congratulations ! ! ! :D

I just know it was not "Me" . . . ;) :mad:

Ahhh, nothing like a GG contest, thanks, Imeo.....:thumb:

YEP - Always a lot of FUN . . . ;)

BTW: "Imeo" - ALthough you are always very generous and continue to have these Contest monthly - "You" ever thnk about the 1st person who answers correctly actually "WINS" the prize and then having a "Random Drawing" of all the other people that jumb on the "bandwagon" for something else . . . Just An Idea . . . ;)

if he disallows double posts then somo would be disqualified as well. Don't forget to skip the post where negrete35 mentions they doubled guessed bill gates . That comes up on the search as well
