Only time guessing 123456789 get you a prize.

3

Huh. I was only off by like three orders of magnitude :wink:

4

Is it better to “like” or “Insightful” this post, since my crazy guess actually won the whole thing???

5

That’s the same combination of my luggage!!

6

“No sir! I didn’t see you playing with your Bagman again!”

7

How crazy is it that two people guessed 123,456,789!!! Oh… wait a sec. I see what happened there. :dizzy:

8

“How many Thorkoyes we got in this game anyhow?”

Just about every 5 PvP player stands up* “YO!”

“I knew it. I’m surrounded by Thorkoyes! Keep firing, Thorkoyes!”

9

129M / (5 * 365) is roughly 70K per day.

A lot more than I estimated, I thought I’d already overshoot by going by just over 10K per day…

10

I was only wrong by 126 million! So close…

11

I took it one step too far I see, I guessed 1234567890.

12

Well, that’s unexpected but really nice! :slight_smile:

13

To continue from DeNappa,
70k / 5 = 14k purchase every day because 1 purchase gives 5 boosts each. That’s still a lot. I thought they were referring to only Match Damage Boost that uses HP. So, it’s for all form of damage boost. :smiley:

Congrat to all winners.

14

Bwahaha! This is spectacular! This is too funny the way this worked out.

15

Well that was… unexpected. I’m going to copy @sambrookjm 's answers more often!

16

MPQ the flamethrower!! “WOOSH”. The kids love this one.

17

So that is what the Pyro is using against my teams…

Or you just type in 123,456,789 before I do, and get an extra 500 Hero Points! :slight_smile:

18

I didn’t take it far enough. Stopped before 89.

Did not think there were that many bought!

19

lol, me too. 1,234,567

Sure would be nice to have some kind of baseline about how many players they have actively playing as a basis for this sort of thing.

20

. IIRC in the anniv. video they said that they have 10 million players world wide…
