If I were judging this contest based on the rules provided, I would call it a TIE - because zero was your guess, and I would assume bdjuf's guess was zero also (default). So entering $1 would be much different than zero...

But I'm not judging. So it doesn't matter what I think...

...so I'll just bow out now.
