Lol. Just following the suggestion of a staff member

AJ, as to how you play there's a 5x5 grid with 24 values starting at 20,000 all the way to 100,000. There is also one bomb space which ends you turn immediately. When it's your turn I'll ask for 3 choices, be sure to put them in the actual order you want them revealed and not just sequential order. If none of the 3 are the bomb space you give me 3 more....until you find the bomb space or have a perfect run of 24 correct choices.

Here's what the game board looks like:

The game ends when someone hits 10,000,000. Everyone will have the same amount of rounds for fairness to determine 2nd and 3rd places. Ties are broken by number of tiles selected. The person with the smaller amount gets the higher position. Ex. Someone who picked the 100,000 tile (1) would be above a person who picked 30,000 and 70,000 for a total of 100,000 (2). If you have any more questions I can answer them before or during your round.

I have one question. Say someone gets a 24 tile perfect round, does that end their turn or do they get another 25 tile board to keep going on?

In my previous competition it ended your turn. For this one I was thinking about the new board and keep going. So, for this one, if you get a perfect run, you will get a new board and keep going. I think out of 120+ rounds there were 2 perfect runs in my last one so I do think that the bonus of a new board is a good idea. Thanks for asking.

1 more and we can get started. Also, I will send you a PM when it is your turn. From that point you have 48 hours to post your first 3 choices. After you've begun your turn you have 24 hours for each set of choices.
