I used the Export Thread feature, and then Ctrl-F to search for "Dawson". There were 16 matches (from Dawson's posts and our replies). Based on @fig saying the answer was in Post #1, I think post #147 (7/16) was the winner. So.... today?

Infinity +1!

Wait, it's over?

Ah! I took it to mean that the correct answer, luckily enough, was given in the very first reply posted to the thread, which would have been Dawson as well, with 8/1

@fig can you reveal why you were thinking that particular date?

 

[fig]

@cwsquared is correct. The winning post was 7/16…the day the contest ends.

The winning post was 7/16…the day the contest ends.

So, my hypothesis was correct. I feel like a winning-est loser.

However….8/1 happens to be a personally significant date.

Because you’re a big fan of OU812?

8/1? And I thought for sure you would have said 1/9 ...

What’s so great about .111111111111111…?

Apparently nothing.

This one was fun….so far.
Nah, it will be a lot of fun to shop for someone else. I never know what to get me.

Wait..WHAT??

Me too- I was born on that day once!
thanks SO much, @fig !

I can't believe it was the second post

7/16 won the game

Ooh- ok, this is starting to make sense now.

@dawson must eat Lucky Charms cereal every morning as they have won yet again!

I'll be switching over from Lucky Charms Malt-O-Meal Marshmellow Mateys to a less-fortune-enhancing cereal in-order to give my fellow forum members more of a fair chance in the future!

Apparently my haiku poems, logo designs, and arbitrary guesses are pretty-fire!
