    Thumbs down

    Pick the right number and win a free Isaac system! Why not; it’s the slow season and this could be fun.

    That’s right, just pick a number between, say, 15 and 45. We have no idea what the correct number will be until we crash test next week. What are you guessing? The upper neck load on the dummy, measured in hundreds of Newtons. For perspective, 15 is a great number matched by only two products on the planet, and 45 is a dead dummy. It's possible the number would fall outside this range, but unlikely.

    But that’s not important. What’s important is that historical testing is of no value because we are testing a new design with a new test protocol. In other words, we have no idea what will happen. Honest.

    Here are The Rules:
    - You must post your guess here, don’t e-mail us please.
    - One guess per person.
    - In the event of a tie, the first poster wins.
    - Guesses are limited to increments no smaller than 0.5
    - Contest ends at noon EDT, Monday 19 September 2005.
    - If the thing blows up, no one wins. Sorry.

    Spread the word.

    This is going much more quickly than expected. Everybody woke up.

    To avoid any ill feelings let's add a rule: No decimals, i.e. integers only. If we run out of numbers we can revisit this, or get creative in some other manner.

    Put me down for 23.
    Is that the load the dummy takes while wearing the Issac?

    Yes, that's it. It's the load the dummy takes where the upper neck connects to the base of the skull while using the Isaac.

    The total load the entire dummy takes will be over 5 tons.
