I might not be smarter than those people that play puzzles.  However, funny puzzle must be solved in funny way.  More fun! 

If nobody can prove it and compute it correctly to show us in our eyes with your calculation up to the 1000th digit, you cannot convince us whether the 1000th digit is not 3.

So, like I say early, take up the challenge to win the game so that you could be the champion of this game.

I am the minor to be the judge.  Who can prove that the 1000th digit cannot be 3 then I will be the loser.

It does not matter I'll be the winner or loser since I do not see myself to be smarter than anyone else.

If nobody can prove the 1000th digit to be 3, there is a chance that it should be 3.

So, I do not want to argue again, the answer is confirmed to be 3 if nobody can prove it is wrong.

Thanks.
