Seeing as I hate Internet Explorer(reasons stated below), and the RPG Forum battle thing doesn't support Net Scape, I have no use for my minerals. Sooooooo....
pick a number from 1 and 6000. The number of minerals you get depends on how close you are to the correct answer. How far off from the correct answer you are is the number of minerals I shall subtract from the prize.
E.G. if the number were 2500, and the prize were 3000, and someone picked 4000... 4000-2500=1500, 3000-1500=1500, and they'd get 1500 minerals. Obviously, I won't be giving negative amounts of minerals away to those that are that far off lol.
Prize for round 1=1500
Hint(what I say will not necassarily be literal)- Maximum map size multiplied by (minimum map size/(8 x 8) x 10). # of square is not off answer by -10+9(or anything lower), or -10+11(or anything higher).
EDIT:Oh ya, the reasons I don't like Internet Explorer:
It's slow as hell.
When I use it, I literally get several times the number of pop-ups then I do with Netscape.
Last time I tried using it it caused a... fatal exception...
It's funky and wierd.

Well, since I wanna start round 2, I'll start giving out prizes!
Answer iiiiiiisss.... 2560!!(For info on the hint, see bottom)
DeathKnight was closest.
2560-2004=554?(appr.)
1500-554=946
DeathKnight, you are awarded 946 minerals!
Everyone else will get prizes depending on what place they're in.
Revelade gets 600 minerals, Rayne gets 400, Shadow Paladin gets 200, and Mini Moose2707 gets... 1 mineral!
Explanation of hint:
Largest map size is 256.
Minimum Map size(64) divided by (8 x 8=64) is 1.
1x10=10, and 10x256=2560. Simple.
EDIT:
Prize= 1000 minerals
NEW RULE: Choose a number between 5000 and 10000.
Hint= This number is stated by StarCraft X-tra Editer. If you put this number string in the right area, it'll crash SC when you try to do something that uses that number.

I have no idea were to look for that answer but i guess ill guess 8739 
Report, edit, etc...Posted by EzDay281 on 2004-02-22 at 23:12:16
LOL You got it right.
You see, if you put 8739 into the time box for a UNIT or BUILDING... it means instant build, right?
SC doesn't like that, so it crashes when you try to build the building or unit in question. You get all 1000.

I don't think anyone's interested in this contest thing anymore. Either that, or you check too often and people sigh, and go away because the answer was obvious and you posted a minute before they did.
Anyway...

1500 mins to you.
