Have you got a negative score yet - take one for the team, preferably a large one!

No negatives yet. Doubtless there will be a mighty fall from grace coming...

Hey Trigger, how's the alternative scoreboard looking?

I've been relegated to the children's table for Christmas dinner.

They're cheering you on though!

Those of us between 31 and 40 the previous day all went up by 1 except for Sep, who moved up 2 points, thanks to Hyblaeus' stumble, and except for Barney who dropped a few places! We are all fairly consistent! Steady does the race! :rolleyes:

Real classy Declan, point out my fall :mad:

If you folks actually got close to the right answer all would have been well

I’ve really thought about this one which probably will be my downfall.

If all those above 3rd last would organise yourselves properly and work out who of ya need to get this drastically wrong in order for me to leapfrog up the table..... that would be great, ta

I have doubts about that strategy working..


If all but 3 get it drastically wrong, then the median will also likely be drastically different than the right answer, hence no leap frogging being done.


Not saying its not possible, just that its unlikely.
if 22 were to say 1million ad and 22 others were to say 1 million bc, and the final 3 said 1000ad, 0 and 1000bc respectively, i do wonder how it would score. can we organize such an event?

If anyone can work it out Neo, it’s you

Perhaps the playing field needs levelling first.

So this I know, but I am trying to decide whether to put the right answer down or the wrong one as I reckon being right might not be the way to go with ye lot:D

Where am I in your list, Trig?
