OK, I think you've had long enough. Voting on the Keynesian Malapropism Contest is now closed.

countrycousin and scirocco take the trifecta with "[not the] sharpest brick [in the] teapot" with 28 points in total; their prize is an all-expenses paid trip to wherever they currently are

Haha -- I didn't see this till after I commented!

[countrycousin]

Thank you. It seems as if I now have to figure out where I'm at.

[en_ki]

Oh, that's easy: wherever you go, there you are.

[jones_casey]

will this poll close or is not closing part of the point?

[nightspore]

Yeah, I'm wondering....

[en_ki]

Hm, I forgot about this. It seems to have been answered mostly by random drive-by people, which is awesome.

I closed it now, and I get 41568978ish for the average, making erotetica the winner at 10,000,000.

It was a free-text poll, so I was sort of expecting a couple people to supply infinite cardinals and win, or otherwise mess it up; it was odd to see everyone guess a positive integer.

[nightspore]

Oh, right. Good point. Interesting (and makes perfect sense) that the two equilibria diverge so much - 0 is the right sink for finite guesses, and an infinite cardinal for unrestricted (but countable?) guesses.
