Gsimpson2G, Alwil, John Doecliff, Cbarnes0061, Sabshire, and ProfEngr have all entered the contest, only one comes out.
Using a sophisticated system of elimination cycles and coin tosses, here's how it all went down...the coin in this case way a shiny silver 1 yuan coin of the 2006 variety. A "1" is heads, the flower side is tails, heads on your turn keeps you in, tails you're out.
In round one (I'm actually here in my hotel room flipping a coin, at 2:56 in the morning, in my underwear! Glamorous is the life of an international airline pilot!);
Alwil, John DoeCliff, Cbarnes0061, and Sabshire were eliminated! So much for a coin toss being 50/50!
Round two, Gsimpson2g is still in it after the first flip! Now for ProfEngr....................the coin is placed on my appropriately positioned and prepared flipping thumb, the sound of the coin flip is echoing as the coin flips headlong through the slightly chill air in my room.....and it's a head! Both are still in the contest! On to round three!
Round three, the flip, Gsimpson2g proves he's serious with another win! ProfEngr is working the odds in his head as the coin is prepared for what might be its final flip..............heads again! We've got two very stubborn entrants that refuse to go silently into defeat!
Round four.....two wins or two losses will take us to round 5....the coin is lifted from the floor by my bare feet and prepared for another heated contest.............the flip..........heads! What is it about Gsimpson2g that lets him maintain such intensity in this competition?? And the flip for ProfEngr, now showing beads of sweat acknowledging the odds favoring a flipping tails must occur at any moment....the flip....another heads! What are the odds? Who'd have thought when I sat down at the computer (in my underwear) to end this lightly contested giveaway I'd still be sitting here minutes later, still typing out the play-by-play trying to award a contest win after such an epic struggle between entrants? Where did these two fighters come from and, after this, can they possibly return to participating at MultiRotorForums.com peacefully or will the grudge continue making future participation all but impossible for one or both??
On to our very improbable Round 5......i'll silence the commentary to focus on the preparation of the coin and to loft two worthy flips for our entrants.................ok, i'm beginning to think you guys have set me up, what are the odds of making two flips and getting matching "tails" thus keeping the contest going? Is there a camera on me with people ready to jump out from behind the furniture to let me know the coin is rigged and they been joking with me all along? I just flipped two "Tails", one actually eluded my grasp and landed on the floor which is still technically a fair flip and it was tails, the other was caught and flipped onto the back of my other hand, also showing tails.
Round 6......I've looked behind the furniture, nobody's there so I'm going to keep going as if this is really happening.......Gsimpson2g and ProfEngr....good luck, we're all better men having shared this struggle together, I'll remember you always........the flip, Heads for Gsimpson2g! He's still in it! ProfEngr steps up for the flip.....Heads! What the hell? Typical for a chinese coin that it can't even decide a contest amongst two entrants! Is it broken? I couldn't even read the directions that came with it even if they weren't for a previous version...
Round 7....I'm tempted to lie at this point and just pick a winner but I wouldn't do that to you guys after we've all come so far together! lol ..........the flip........another flip falls onto the floor and it's a head!..........and finally a tails has been flipped opposite of our first head in this round and so we have a winner!
