The Official 'Album #3' Bet Thread, Reloaded ~ Patience, grasshopper!


We´ve been waiting for Dido´s next album for quite some time now. To make waiting easier, we decided do a little game.

How it works:

1) Place your bets in this thread, stating
a) your guess about the release date of Dido´s new album (dd/mm/yy)
b) how many songs you think are on that album
2) If 'your' date has already been chosen by someone else, please pick another one.

3) Once we know when the album will be released and with how many songs, you will get one point for
a) every day between your guessed date and the actual release date
b) every count between your guessed number of songs and the actual one
4) The person with the lowest number of points will be our winner.


Which brings me to our prize:

My lovely co-mod, our very own Pav, has agreed to offer her services* to the proud winner of this game. (Make sure to read the fine print before getting too excited.) If Pav should win, then we have a problem.

*Said services can only be the creation of a custom-made icon/avatar. Asking Pav for other kinds of 'favors' is neither allowed nor covered by the rules of this game.

Happy betting!

I think we were all far too optimistic over the release date of this album.

Luckily we at least changed our first guesses into later dates, otherwise it would look even more pathetic.

Nice.

But... I don't want to wait till next summer for the album and I also don't want to lose. Dilemma.

I like that way of thinking, Conny. So...what is the latest news on album #3?

Thanks Pav

But it doesn't seem fair (I know it's 2008 )
