Let's see how this holds up over time.
If it works well enough, feel free to quote it Phil.

If you are overseas I will spring for the shipping of the Trezor

-3.0 = isoneguy

-1.3 = VRobb

-1.2 = philipma1957 >>>> I always pick this number

-1.0 = Last of the V8s

-0.2 = keystroke
0.0 = Fr4nkthetank
0.1 = tomintx
0.2 = mocacinno

0.9 = buwaytress
1.8 = eDonkey

2.2 = vapourminer
2.5 = alh
3.2 = Psi

3.6 = Landy1264
3.7 = pusttiu
5.0 = leowonderful

And look at the diff the gray line has always been under so were pretty much negative but at the moment it has shot way up!

While I have participated in these before, I have lost my sense of how the range works when we are into negative territory. If as an example, what would I choose for the following:

Estimated Next Difficulty: 922,529,973,147 (-0.08%)

Would that be -.1% -or- 0.0% Huh

?

I'll wait a bit to make a guess, but thought I would ask now, since it seems possible to me will be in for decrease in diffiulty.

Thanks for doing this again!!!

-0.1 covers from -0.1 to -0.000000000000000001....
0.0 covers from 0.0 to 0.099999999999999999...
0.1 covers from 0.1 to 0.199999999999999999...

so -0.08 would be won by -0.1 not 0.0

@ QuintLeo pick you still have some time.

time is up all picks are in and done.
