I am asking that everybody e-mail me back with their guess as to the COMBINED value of the numbers drawn on Saturday, February 3rd, as well as their guess as to what the red "powerball" number will be.  The combined value of the six balls drawn (your guess) will be used to determine our draft order, with the person who guesses closest to the actual sum receiving the first overall pick, second closest will receive the second overall pick, etc.  The "powerball" guess will be used to break any ties (again, closest to the red powerball number drawn).

 

The minimum guess for the combined value will be 16 (1+2+3+4+5+1), and the maximum guess for the combined value will be 307 (55+54+53+52+51+42).  Your guess must be within this range.  For the powerball number, your guess must be within the range 1 to 42.  If two owners submit identical sum and powerball guesses, a coin flip will be used.

 

I will need everybody's guesses in advance of Saturday, so let's make Friday night midnight EST the deadline for submittal.  I will publish everybody's guesses once all are received, and we can all follow along with the drawing as it occurs on Saturday at www.powerball.com.
