Oh nutn.....keep guessing.  Contest ends tomorrow night.   :)

Aside from the fun of it, this has been an interesting social experiment.  Some of you are way off and would definitely not make good negotiators.   :)  Then again, with practice comes perfection.

Defense for all dandeals members who would not make good negotiators :)

Mr. practice, you would agree that it is particularly difficult to guess the amount, especially considering that you have not given us the case details, most importantly, the ability of your client to pay (well how much the hospital believes he can pay) - that is even assuming the hospital believes that the judge will rule in their favor

the experiment is very interesting. thank you

What fun would it have been to give out all such information?  If so, I might as well have just posted the answers.

Now, that is a great idea for another experiment.

I believe you will be surprised as to how much fun it will be even when you share those particulars.
And you will then be shocked at how poor some are at negotiations.

New experiment fringe benefit: After hearing all of the details and the settlement amount, we will then truly appreciate your negotiation skills.

I do not discriminate.  All DDF members (with some specific exceptions as listed in my initial posting) are free to participate.

If any one person guesses the correct answer to both questions, an extra gold nugget will be your reward in the form of a second 25.00 United Gift Card.   :)  However, in order to claim this bonus prize, you must guess the two exact numbers. 

So keep it up folks.  The winners will be selected tomorrow night, unless there is a consensus that people want to keep it going.

And to make things a bit more interesting, I am offering a second prize of a $25.00 United Gift Certificate to the person that guesses the correct answer to this question:

What percentage (%) off from the full amount sued for was the first reduced demand from the hospital?  It can be any percentage number from 1% through 99%.

Just to be clear, the answer is like this - we will settle for ___% off of the 15k amount.

The correct response will be awarded a 25 UA GC at the conclusion of the contest.

Not at all my friend.  I never suggested that the answer to the first question has anything to do with the answer to the second question.

The ultimate settlement amount (answer to the first question) is not tied to the initially offered reduced settlement amount (answer to second question), which was of course rejected.  These are two distinct questions.  I cannot comment further as I do not want to give an unfair advantage to people first guessing now.  I've given a few hints thus far.  Some of you have understood the hints.  Others haven't.  Or perhaps some of you are just luckier than others in your guesses.
