Finally won "Guess the Weight of the Marrow"

I've been playing Neopets since 2003, and I finally won "Guess the Weight of the Marrow" today. I thought I'd never win that thing. Never happened before.

The answer is 484 for today by the way, if anyone else wanna win...

I'm pretty sure once someone wins, nobody else can guess. Congrats! What did you win?

[Secre]

Congratulations! Did you win anything particularly interesting?

I bet the prize was woefully underwhelming, after all that build up xD Congrats on guessing correctly though.

Guessing the weight of a marrow really is a thing in the UK: school fetes and church bizarres etc. We DON'T have potato counting though. xD The JN description is amusing...

Just the fact that they call it a zucchini-like vegetable shows marrows are not a thing in the US, lol. It's not zucchini-"like", it is zucchini! Just an overgrown one, lol. In the UK we didn't learn to eat them when they were small until well into my adulthood. Old habits die hard, that's all I can say! But at least bland and somewhat soggy stuffed marrow isn't "gracing" too many dinner tables these days. >.<

Congrats, that is amazing! I have never managed to correctly guess the weight.

I ended up getting a Marrow Bone.

@Wildbreeze I thought I read somewhere there could be a max of 10 winners a day.

That is so cool! Any reason in particular for guessing 484, or was it just a random number that popped in your head? 

[sunny098]

@caeklin I just pick a random number every day.
