Ending it a few minutes early, to go play PL.
It's about leap years... first of all. The "leap year" was introduced around the time of Julius Caesar.... but I'm talking America. My home(ugh).
1752 is in the 18th century. instead of the usual 25 days added from leap years, it had 12 added, 11 dropped, leaving only one extra day.-- In Great Britain (and America), the Gregorian calendar would not be adopted until September 1752; 11 days were dropped to ease the process.
That's not the meaty stuff... :P
The century before, the 17th century and the 1600s, did not have that extra day. Also, every fourth year is a leap year, ask you know, except for the fact that if it's divisible by 100 and not by 400, then it is not. This would apply to the 1600s/17th century if we had been using our current form of the Georgian calender, but we were not. Therefore, A is the correct answer.
SIMPLE TERMS:
1600s/17th century -- 36,500 days
1700s/18th century -- 36,501 days
1800s/19th century -- 36,524 days
1900s/20th century -- 36,524 days
So, winners were between Frenzyn(1), KingofHurtz(2), FluffNStuff(3). The RNG I made chose...

Which is the shortest century:
A. The 17th century
B. The 18th century
C. The 19th century
D. The 20th century
The title is a hint, I'll check back in 24 hours, winners get numbered, and a random number gen. will decide. Essentially, a raffle. When in doubt, bubble in "B." God, I hated my fourth grade teacher, acted like were didn't know which letters were which.
It would be worth more, but I need to get someone something. Is anyone selling.... A nice price please...
EDIT: Originally was going to require a reason, but as soon as someone posts a logical one everyone would copy... so no reason. I'll be saying it when this ends.
EDIT: See bold, was thinking something else, and wrote longest instead of shortest, you may repick your answers. Sorry about that, haven't given this in so long I forgot. Oh well, fixed now.
