2 3 4 to go!

 

And beaten Mr Goldfinger too!

 

Am I to think you got up early just for the pleasure.

 

In past editions of  "The Days Till Christmas " threads the aim was to get your post in first, seconds after midnight like 00.05 seconds past. People were staying up late just for the chance of winning

And people got narky when server time vs individual device time was a a few seconds different and posts landed before midnight, thus being yesterday and wrong :D

 

Or if your post landed just after someone else.. at 00:00:02

Hey guess what.

Today is 221days to christmas. 

But.. if you think 221 is some boring number think again -

  • product of two prime numbers, 13 and 17, making it a semiprime
  • the sum of five consecutive prime numbers (37 + 41 + 43 + 47 + 53)
  • the sum of nine consecutive prime numbers (11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 + 31 + 37 + 41)
  • a centered square number[1]
  • Mertens function(221) = 5 a record high that stands until 554
  • If you deal 2 cards from a single deck of 52 cards, you have a 1 in 221 chance of getting 2 aces.

Thanks Wiki
