So in case of claims on consecutive days, which timezone determines the winner?

Eastern Standard Time (EST).

Just a reminder to all who have not submitted anything:
After Saturday night you will no longer be able to submit entries into this contest. This is not some kind of gimmick; I will be giving away $100 USD to whoever wins.

Can I get today's equivalent in Euros, Canadian Dollars, or Pounds Sterling instead.  I'm pretty sure the USD will devalue against all of those quite a bit between now and then.

Another 8000 posts to go and someone will be $100.00 richer, and I'll have $100.00 less to support my meth habit with.

What date did you pick again Biz?  I may have to adjust my chattiness parameter.

Another 3 months till my date comes up and 5,500 posts to go. I'm beginning to doubt my highly scientifically chosen date.

I wouldn't be so sure, we have a couple new chatty cathys around here.  I'm starting to worry that my 6 months out is way overestimated.
