Groneman Family

The Groneman Baby Guess scoring system is now finalized. That means Brett can make his guess. The only alteration from the original scoring system is that the days difference multiplier is now 5.0 instead of 0.5. This is to accommodate the induction date being set one week early. There is a slight modification on when entries must be submitted by, as well. Entries must be submitted before Nov. 30th . Must be 2 or older to put in an entry. The final scoring system: ((difference in days from date of actual birth) * 5.0 ) + ((difference in minutes from time of actual birth) * 0.03) + ((difference in ounces from actual birth weight) * 0.7) + ((difference in inches from actual height) * 0.2) + (if wrong gender then 5.0, otherwise 0) Note that all previous guesses are currently for after the Dec. 6th induction date. If you don't re-submit, we'll use your original.

It's time to guess the stats on Baby Groneman! Don't edit the post, since it appears that there is a maximum number of edits that can be done. Instead, comment. We will mathematically determine a winner. Lowest score wins. Wins what? Probably a candy bar (subject to change), but you have to pick it up yourself. Here's the formula for your score (formula is subject to change until Thanksgiving Day, 2008): ((difference in days from date of actual birth) * 0.5) + ((difference in minutes from time of actual birth) * 0.03) + ((difference in ounces from actual birth weight) * 0.7) + ((difference in inches from actual height) * 0.2) + (if wrong gender then 5, otherwise 0) No Purchase necessary. Void where prohibited. Valid only to legal U.S. citizens. Not valid in AK, VT, NY, or MA. Must be 2 or older. Contest ends when Baby is born. All guesses must be complete to be considered.
