OK nobody cares that the question is not defined properly.

I take 05/10/2008 for both places. Why not.

Can't a guy go out for dinner in peace? Ok, it's the first seabreeze 'of the season'. I did define it though, 'four consecutive green arrows', plus all that other fluff. If you don't know what a 'green arrow' represents then you aren't allowed to enter the competition.

I reserve the right to make up more rules as we go along to keep it as fair as possible. If you don't think it is then tough 'nanas. I don't want to hear whingeing from anyone who doesn't ride those spots saying they wouldn't know what goes on there, last year it was WA only. At least the East Coast gets a look in this year.

Oh, and if more than three people have nominated a date because they haven't counted the nominations for it already, they miss out on that date. I'm not going to check this every night to count posts for everyone.

When I say everyone gets one guess for each spot, I only want to type your name twice at the most. I'll let Poor Relative's change through because I obviously hadn't made it clear before, but from now on your first guess is your final one.

Rules clarification:

Can you only pick one side of the country? Or do you have to pick both sides?

He's already won a prize.

You don't 'have' to do anything, but if you want to pick both sides that gives you more chances to win. Read them again, I thought they were pretty clear?

It's this bit that confused me (and still does):



  • You may have one guess for the Ocean Reef weather station, and one guess for the Kurnell weather station.

  • The three winners will have the closest guesses to the first seabreeze on either side of the country. If your guess is the closest to the first seabreeze in Sydney and it's 5 days off, and Perth doesn't come in until a month later and someone gets it on the day, tough luck for you. The Perth guess wins.




I only want one guess, and that's the WA breeze.

That's ok because it doesn't confuse me, which is what matters. But for further clarification; imagine all possible slots get taken. That will mean that there are three correct guesses for each side of the country and six equal winners. The sunnies will then go to the first three of those six to register their guess.

Imagine if only one person guesses the exact day of the first seabreeze on one side of the country, and three people guess one day before on the other side. The person who got the exact day will win a prize, and the two earliest to register their guess out of the other three will win a prize.

Theoretically, one person could get both sides of the country correct on the day, guess what happens then? They don't get two pairs of sunnies, that would be silly. The three best guessing users get a pair of sunnies each, down the chain of closeness to correct and 'length of foresight'.

I hope this helps?
