So here's what happened with the contest.

I should have known it would be littlek who would finally stop my thread from getting any longer. I remember looking at her post two days ago and thinking, damn, what can I possibly post in response to THAT drivel?
By the way, did I mention that the person who puts the thread-killing post down gets to make out with me? I think I mentioned that somewhere around page sixty or seventy-something...Anyway, I'm all puckered up and ready to go, littlek!
Paulaj was the closest, with her guess of 300. She is the winner! I'll go back and see what freakish sex act she promised to do if she won.
And now, one last look at the incredibly deep and thought-provoking post that would turn out to be the last...

Beth - 2 kinds of soy product, bo choy and a celephan noodle dish. All heaped around sticky rice and preceded with fantastic, super-hot clear soup with seaweed and a dumpling.
Where's dys....?
Then, in a later post, PaulaJ said this:

This thread hasn't stopped for more than 12 hrs. since it's inception, in short, you have made it so none of us can win.
Why, whyyyyyyyyy?
After a couple more posts in which we tried to talk sense into that thick skull of hers, I finally did this:
kickycan wrote:Yes, Littlek is right. It was changed back on page ten or so. Closest guess. Okay, since Paula doesn't seem to understand that she has won the prize, I'm going to have to look in my "How Long Can You Make My Thread Get?" rulebook...
Let's see, here...<flipping pages>...winner dies before thread ends...winner doesn't want prize...winner too dumb to understand the rules....ah! Here it is, on page 343, Section 555C, subsection (R)1-p, Paragragh 5-b...
"In case of a winner who is too dumb to realize they have won, said winner shall be afforded one explanation of rules. If said winner still does not understand the rules after this explanation, there is no winner, and the thread is declared "new" again. All guesses are once again in play."
YES! WE'RE BACK ON, PEOPLE! The thread is alive again, thanks to Paulaj's beautiful thick skull and her incredibly fantastic ability to misunderstand even the simplest of games! YEAH! THANK YOU PAULA!!!!
Since then, I haven't been keeping track, so I guess it's still anyone's game as of this moment! Cool! So now, who guessed what again????
