And I thought I was being optimistic. My first choice was 4400.
Try harder next time. :-)

Actually, my first choice was 3650. I figured NOBODY would believe that, so I reversed the first two digits.

Reminds me of a software project estimate I came up with a few years ago. My first estimate was 6 man-years;

The project took 10 man-years.
