Ron Paul Actual Speaking Time (breakdown based on highlight reel http://rpflix.com/3216):
00:14 - 00:34 = 20s
01:10 - 02:06 = 56s
02:39 - 03:08 = 29s
03:35 - 04:35 = 60s
05:33 - 07:20 = 107s
07:50 - 08:45 = 55s
09:18 - 09:47 = 29s
10:39 - 11:47 = 68s
11:53 - 12:45 = 52s
13:13 - 14:52 = 99s
14:55 - 15:24 = 29s


TOTAL TALKING TOTAL = 604 seconds = 10:04
(This is the total actual speaking time, not including people asking questions or other candidates responding: just pure and simple Ron talk time.)

This is for the OP to decide officially, but I'd say it is a toss up between:

TomtheTinker = 590 (09:50) -- 14sec off
jeremiah89 = "about 10 minutes" -- potentially most accurate, but vague

Honorable Mentions (within 1min accuracy):
tfurrh = 583s (9:43) -- 21sec off
Havax = 572s (09:32) -- 32sec off
messana = 639s (posted as 9:99, 9m 99s = 10m 39s) -- a joke but only 35sec off
garyallen59 = 562s (09:22) -- 42sec off


Good Times!

Yes, these people say 9:57 - http://www.dawnoftheweak.com/2011/11/cnn-republican-debate-11-22-11-wolf.html
Regardless, this margin of error doesn't change the order of folks as identified in my earlier post.
But feel free to check my work.

 

[jeremiah89]

Wow, and I thought saying 10 minutes was being incredibly optimistic, and didn't really expect to get close. Guess I shouldn't have been so vague.

 

[TomtheTinker]

I guessed 590 seconds...I think he got 597. did I win?

 

[Krugerrand]

yes and BTW, if you feel you were the winner, post it here and tell me what post# you were

Go ahead and send one to messana as well. 9:99 was funny.

 

[smithtg]

599 seconds is only 9.983 minutes lol

Too funny

tinker - tell me what post number your prediction is
