It's too bad Fniff didn't get $500,000.

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

Square 19 for Doomblade is...



[$----90,000]

*applause*

Not the biggest amount, but you're safe for now.

Code: [Select]
[-----1-----][-----2-----][-----3-----][-----4-----][-----5-----]
[-----6-----][-----7-----][-----8-----][-----9-----][$---450,000]
[----11-----][----12-----][----13-----][----14-----][----15-----]

[-----Doomblade187][$-------90,000][00][--][--------------------]
[---------Lillipad][$------------0][00][--][--------------------]

Please note: The ~ is a substitute for a minus sign, as all lines look the same.
And finally, for the first pass, Lillipad

Please note: You may post your pick before I update this thread, however, the picks must remain in turn order (e.g. top to bottom of list)

You have 48 hours to make a square choice, if one is not made, there are two warnings.

1st Warning: Computer randomly picks square for you.
2nd Warning: As above but with a $100,000 deduction.
3rd Warning: Auto-bomb.

I'm assuming that's a request to go on the waiting list? :)

Murphy's law dictates that at this point, the bombs start being uncovered. Schrodinger's cat dictates that basically every square contains a bomb and money of varying amounts until proven. Sod's law dictates that I'm going to be the one who uncovers the first bomb. With a heavy heart, I pick 17.

You forget that the first pick in this round was a Bomb! I've locked 17 in for you, however, it won't be revealed until after Lillipad picks a square.
