    Good luck. I have no advice (sensible advice anyway) other than be calm, practice and my fingers are crossed for you.

    I was going to suggest buy a tiny tiny phone. Put it somewhere where the sun doesn't shine on silent mode, but on vibrate mode. And then when an hour is up get a friend to phone you. Not only will you win but it will be a very pleasurable experience too.

    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    My advice would be don't waste your time. As an earlier poster stated it is a nigh on impossible task and in my opinion a waste of half a day in your life.Spend time with your loved ones instead .

    I see no harm in trying snakepilsen, as the saying goes if you're not in you can't win! I thought that that was the motto to comping and winning. I don't imagine anyone there will get exactly on the hour but I'm sure whoever gets the closest even if it's 5 mins out can still be the winner
    Best of luck and if you can't use the phone ;) go with the wristbands

    The OP states in order to win you need to be within ONE minute either side . The harm is the waste of half a day which could be better spent.

    If you can't use MaineBlues idea :p then I would go with the counting to 3600 idea but as you're counting maybe clap your hands then clap your laps. Good luck, hope you win :)
