    Re: Announcing the Coffee Snobs Millennial Contest


    WooHoo... we have cracked the 950...
    Only 50 till we findout who the winner is.

    Im going to have a second guess in this thread (for the hell of it, not for prizes) while we wait for real winner.

    My second guess is:

    JUNE 12th

    Anyone else wanna play?

              Actually, after the contest was announced, the average number of new members per day has at least doubled. The trendline will still be linear, even if the data is a curve. It tries to best fit the trendline to the data.

                Nunu,

                The trendline will only be linear if you apply a linear extrapolation to the data. The membership has followed a very stable curve upward over time over which a non-linear trendline sits very nicely!

                  Although now that weve hit the 950, new memberships should start to taper off.

                    ...only if the new additions were dodgy... and I doubt it.

                    Did any of you guys factor-in Mothers day? Piles of new auto-espresso machines for home needing some REAL coffee

                      Re: Announcing the Coffee Snobs Millennial Contest

                      Mothers day or not, My guess looks to be at least 30 members off.

                      In mid march when the comp started I guessed May 10 - tomorrow. I expected a more rapid upturn in new memberships so guessed earlier than what my gut was telling me, but it didnt pay off. Although the guess wasnt hideously inaccurate, it was at least far enough off to allow me to confidently rule myself out of the prize running.

                      Oh well, maybe Ill have better luck for 2000.

                        I think we will have more prize offerings from CS and site sponsors this year..... so you might not be waiting too long!

                              Keep in mind that the contest ends when we have 1000 verified members. The count on the homepage includes those who have not yet verified their membership.
