Guess the number of pages in the 2007 manual.

Guess the number of pages in the 2007 manual:
Rules:
  1. No decrypting the manual...(duh)
  2. No saying the same answer as someone else the original post gets the prize
  3. If you are over the actual count...you're out
  4. The person closest to the actual amount will win...something
  5. Sorry Dave (dLavery)...you can't guess (we're all pretty sure you already know the answer).
  6. You can guess multiple times (up to 5) and all count towards "winning"
I think it is pretty self explanatory. Any questions feel free to PM me.

Deadline is 8am EST Saturday, January 6, 2007

My guess: 170 or 281 pages. (I'll put my logic later).

Are you asking about a specific section of the manual or the whole manual including all sections.
Yes you can use previous manuals and what is not encrypted in this years.

The whole manual.

When you look at the bottom of Adobe "Page 1 of 9" or something, so 9 would be the count for that section.

Re: Guess the number of pages in the 2007 manual.

362.

that's right folks, three hundred and sixty two.

My reasoning? typing wildly on the number pad, and picking the last three numbers I entered.

Hoo-rah!

Re: Guess the number of pages in the 2007 manual.

Can we use previous years manuals as a guessing point?
Are you asking about a specific section of the manual or the whole manual including all sections.

150 Pages - Reason Different Fonts, Sizes and everything should be Double Spaced =)

I know it don't make sense

Re: Guess the number of pages in the 2007 manual.

Are we printing single sided or double sided?

Or just adding the numbers on the last page of each section together?

I want to know the rules of something before I start gambling.*



*237 before anyone takes that btw..

Why?

I dunno...

Code:
Dim i as Long
For i = 1 to 5
    MsgBox "The lucky number is " & CLng(Rnd * 250)
Next
Yeah, I should get with the times and learn how to do this in C++, but....I'm lazy.
