****Game Rules****
I will open up one game post sometime during the last week of the month. The post will be open for anyone who wants to play. I?ll try to re-post the link for the game post in the afternoon and evening for voting through the end of that month. This will keep it neat, as all the guesses will be in one post.
I?ll be counting on MrsG to keep up with the actual birth dates. As we end up period of births, I?ll compare everyone?s guesses with the actual birth order.
Everyone make a guess at the order of the births. We're not guessing actual due dates, just who will go in what order. Once all the March & April babies are born, I will tally it up and see who wins. The prize is TBD, but I think a blinkie would be nice. Anyone want to volunteer to design one? If not, I can see if I can request one from CreamPuff.
Finally, I haven't figured out a scoring system yet. I think I have an idea of how I'm going to do it, but I'm not 100% sure yet. Once I get some guesses in this post, I'm going to play around with a scenario and a scoring system to make sure it works. I'm also open to any recommendations.

I bumped myself up ahead of some of the other April girls - wishful thinking I suppose!
My guess...
dbertagni, cate1119, fridaysgirl, Lalabee, ourbaby, cmbrown, AnneNC, BabyChickpea, murph, lmc, skirk, MrsM&M, starz, julesNC
I have searched around for an online office pool thing that could host this, but I can't find anything.
Boo!
As for scoring, my only thought would be to assign each guess a position number and then compare that to the actual position number and assign a?numerical?score for each guess based on the differential, total them up for all 14 guesses and whoever has the lowest total wins??
I would put it into Excel and let it do the work ;-)?

Good luck to the March and April ladies!
I've already got it in excel. You & I were thinking along the same lines of assigning a position # too. I'll probably play around with assigning points or a score for each position and see how it works out best. If I can't figure anything out, I may email you for some input!
