Congratulations on the Exacta, Steven! 

Not so many congratulations for stealing the win from me, Steven.  :-P

Quote from: Earlier today, I said
However, if it was indeed $15,687 then you would have blown an EXACTA.
I just saw the revised lists, and TPIRSteven has no OVER.  I thought he had a Double Overbid.  The correction would mean one EXACTA and one OVER.  Did something else change?  Or I was initially wrong when I said that originally had a Double Overbid?

Yea, you misread it JF. It's correct as shown.

Now that it's official:

:hammer: YES! :hammer:

Sorry about your win, Armadillo.  But you still cashed, which is always a productive day in my books.

I know I'm risking a historic wrong here, but I think that this is the first time that a CSS has been decided by "instant replay."  Hopefully, this version can be much better than the system used in the National Football League.  :mrgreen:

We've seen that waterproof laptop computer once before on the show.  That day, it was $4,189.  So either we had a much cheaper model of said computer or what is perhaps the cheapest trip to Jamaica in history.

I told Bully before the showcases that we were way overdue for a Fireball Special.  I believe this qualifies as one.
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :P

I was one of a few people who smelled Fireball Special too.  Trust me, when you add up your Showcase bids/estimations, and your total comes out to $12,898, you know something is either horribly wrong with your math or a Fireball Special is imminent.  Save for the four of us who survived, it was the latter.  :mrgreen:

$21,100/$27,300... are you kidding me?! I was expecting a wipeout for sure, but the bad part is that Armadillo is one of the few that scored! How the heck did you do that?!

Just watched on CBS.com.  18,392 / 16,784.  I would not have done much better than most today.  Time to bust this out:
