It seems the credits ending in 75 and 25 were the wrong ones to go for. Very few people saying they went for the 50s and hundreds. I figured most would go for those, and that's why I went 425. I guess many others had the same idea <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />
My initial thoughts were the same -- I kept picking 25/75 amounts, but then I thought that if others also thought the "normal" round numbers would be most popular, then they might go for 25/75 amounts, in which case, the even omounts would be the way to go. I was also avoiding $400+ because I thought I'd have less competition, but then decided that many people would feel the same, so if I was going to take my chances, it may as well be grabbing for a big pile.
My brother said he thought that the two most popular prizes would be the MOAB and the $25 Shop Credit (biggest and littlest) -- I thought he was crazy to think a lot of folks would go got $25, but that's exactly what Bruce's poll indicated.
