Just another 24 hrs before entries close. How much I revise my guess by will depend on the extent to which GPUGrid gets its act together.

Previously reckless optimism worked well in these competitions. However, as ever, I'm in it to win it, so realism must prevail, the problems at GPU grid and the temporary loss of Buster's input has lowered our RAC a bit. So I'm going to lower my guess to 167,870,000

Here is the deal: as mentioned before I will try to look for the winning score just after midnight tomorow. The actual time I get around to looking depends on much wrapping of presents has to be done.
I'll try to post the winner some time on Christmas Day.

Call me a smug bastard (and I am :) ) but surely I have won. Without an unprecedented 1.4 daily upload or greater I am the man. Ole. Ole. Ole! etc!
Any sidebets to the contary?

Well, I'm certainly willing to concede defeat. Even Rowpie's new Ninja MegaBox isn't going to give the boost it needs to get the total up. So unless there is a hiddden cache waiting to be downloaded...
All Hail The Hero.

Hmm, I think I've just got a superior ability for tracking short term fluctuations. I must thank my P1-4 Primary school teacher Mrs Esselmont, who taught me basic arithmetic!
As regards expectations I doubt if this time last year any of us would have dared predict that we would enter Xmas Day 2008 with a total of 167,066,082: It's a grand time when just under 500,000 counts as a bad day!
