[hellno]

[OLDBAYCRAB]

OK gang, I'm undecided on this one... which walk clock should I buy for the garage bay which will be used to hold my new redeye when I win it???...

Have they released who week1 winner is or is it classified?

Not that I've seen. It said in this week's video that the winner has been notified, but they made no mention of who it was.

Notified or selected??

So what is the end game of this contest?
5 now 6 people can win a Dodge if they can do physics or select the right answer at random.

Then what? Is this supposed to make me want to buy a Dodge because it really doesn't. And im a Mopar lover.

I was just thinking about this... wouldn't it have been a better contest if the questions were more like....

Look at the two clocks above. What time is it on the black one? What time is it on the blue one? What's the difference in time between the black and blue one?

OK, the last question would make my head hurt but, you get the idea... #GOLDBERGSUCKS

Answering correctly prior to hashtags should equate to increased chances

Notified or selected??

My bust.....selected......the first weeks winner has been selected. Not to be confused with the erroneous information I posted previously about them being notified....only selected according to Mr. Goldberg as of a few minutes ago. I'll gladly go to my room now to contemplate the error of my ways.

Yep, just found it and submitted it. The answer I calculated is still there too

I can't wait to see what decimals were carried through their solution to arrive at the exact answer they did, because while mine is very close (.005%), I can't come up with their EXACT number no matter how I cheat the decimals around.

I'm in same boat, I'm close enough that I'm not going to spend any more time on it unless it disappears.

There is the variable of the curb weight, but taking it from the min to the max possible, being it's such a small factor, it can't account for the delta.

Same here. It was driving me nuts yesterday!

My answer is within <1 % of theirs...and it's still on the chart of selections....I played with the numbers across the 4 different vehicles weights I found, and +/- a few mph and the answer only fluctuates a small amount.

The delta is very small from what I saw playing with a 15 lb difference, based on the 4 weights I found.

In some ways, this one was "easy", it's only the ambiguity in the problem that is driving me knutz....

 

[Illegal_Demon]

I entered my week 2 number (i missed week 1 deadline)....im not on instagram so i had to go with my answer sans hashtag help...its entered and done...fairly confident...

id love to enter the hashtag to see if my answer is still there...anyone willing to share that would be great...if not...i get that too...
