There are 1,752 marbles in the jar.
“Aurora” guessed 1,752, which was exactly right.
And I think an honorable mention goes to Sally, who over five hours ago guessed correctly, but unfortunately wasn’t the entrant that time. Her entry said: “Nancy, you are way off, it’s 1752! I’m sure of it!”
I’ve got another smaller marble puzzle I’ve been counting out the past few hours to help me stay awake. Should we try it out? It’s 1 to 1000. We’d probably have to have 15 minute updates.
Yay! Congrats Aurora! This was a lot of fun, thanks for holding the contest. I wish I’d jumped in sooner.
Oh, and I’m up for the smaller puzzle, definitely.
Well snot! Congrats to Aurora though!!
I vote yes
Congrats, Aurora!
aw, that’s what i guessed.
i think.
congrats, aurora.
let’s do the smaller puzzle.
anything to stay awake.
Congrats Aurora!
I’m also up for another game.
Its 173.
Congrats Aurora!
Congratz Aurora.
Also semi-congratz to Sally.
Also half-semi-congratz to khouria jen, who was only 2 off way back at 4:26 pm, almost 14 hours earlier!
And if you’re taking guesses already, I’ve got dibs on 497.
haha. i call 662.
I’ll take 256 if we are already starting.
713 is my guess!
lol… I won’t say what I got dibs on, but it happens to be my lucky number. No lie.
Too bad your lucky number’s not 1,752
Yay go me! That was my first guess, too!
LMAO @ Novac. True
OK, let me get the photos ready, and I’ll start up the 1 to 1000.
awesome.
i can’t believe i was 10 off the whole time.
We don’t need photos.
No, but we DO.
LOL
