For April 1, I decided to give myself a second mathematical challenge.
Unfortunately, I don’t have much to work with, because we have a double-lock situation. Enjoy the video anyway.

What actually happened
| Todd | Oliver | Milton? | |||
| 19,000 | 800 | 4,000 | |||

| 8,001 | 1,599 | 2,000 | |||
| min | max | ||||
| 10,999 | |||||
That big wager puts Todd at $82,403. More importantly, perhaps: it sets him up to break our 102-day Streak of Futility in the 5xer department, the record for which we broke this evening.
Have a great weekend!

Why, lately, are people being allowed to tell long, unintelligible stories during the introductions at the expense of finishing all the categories?
Well done. 😀
Thanks!
