Count as high as possible before Star Wars VIII comes out!

So the release date just got moved from 25 May 2017 to 15 December 2017.

So let's try to keep counting until it is released!

Just like any counting game, we just keep counting up 1, 2, 3, etc. You can be creative and use mathematical expressions and equations or images or ascii art or whatever if you want to.

But, there's a twist! You can predict how high you think we will get, and whoever gets the 3 closest guesses (assuming they are still an active user) will win a number of Rublits equal to the number of days before the actual release, which is 695 at the time of posting, multiplied by 12 and divided by your position (1st closest gets days_before*12, 2nd closest gets days_before*6, 3rd closest gets days_before*4), and divided by your number of guesses. If you make another guess, you have to cancel your original guess. (for example if someone predicted it will be 1000 now, but 45 days later changed their guess to 1500, if they won they would only get 650/2 * 12  = 3900 rublits as opposed to 695*12 = 8340 rublits if they had stuck with their original guess and won. This will always be rounded to the nearest integer.

In the event that the actual score ends up exactly between 2 guesses, or near a guess that multiple people made, I will favour whichever one was made first. For this reason you shouldn't guess exactly the same as someone else as you'll never win it unless they change theirs.

if the release date gets pushed back again, I will allow everyone to reset their guesses as if their next guess was their first one, without this division rule.

I will not make any guesses, as it will be silly to give myself rublits!

I'll start the counting at 1.
