The Monopoly Game
Let's play our own version of the game, Monopoly, in which the only person who can lose is me.
I'll send $1.00 for each time the word, "monopoly," is discovered in either version of the manual. (Not both versions!) The person who finds and properly documents the most number of times the word appears will be the recipient of the proceeds.
To qualify, the following data must be noted within ONE message: the version of the manual, the page number on which the word is printed, and the number of times the word appears on each respective page. Documentation of the above must appear in this public folder. There is no limit to the number of submissions a person may make, but only the last submission will be considered. In the case of ties, the proceeds go to the first person to properly provide the winning documentation. The qualification period ends at midnight, December 31, 1999. The time/date stamp that appears at the top of each message as it appears on my monitor is the game's official clock. The sponsor of the game :) assumes no responsibility for SI's technology, prematurely developing Y2k incompatibilities, or other issues that might prevent a contestant from posting a message.
The sponsor of the game reserves the right to further clarify rules should they prove to be ambiguous, confusing or fail to properly address all needed situations.
Did I leave anything out? :)
