Good work today gang, just one off with median - coming in at seven

12 people score maximum points!

A small standard deviation means the points drop off quickly. And, despite what I said, three people still end up losing points

Lots of small movements in the table today, with Green and Red jumping to the top which I'm sure more than makes up for the football!

Ectoplasm

Wooohooo! I got full marks once! My advent is a success

Ah for **** sake I misread the question AGAIN!

I thought we were looking for the number of years the songs were number 1 in both Ireland and Britain.

Remind me not to take part in this next year.

ShaneU

Guessed it spot on and couldn't even get a 10, I give up!

It's a dreadful version, but at this stage I probably hate Jeff Buckley's even more given how horrendously overplayed it is.

Give me Leonard Cohen or give me death.

That was the only one I actually knew of!

Another slide downwards for me... this is worse than a game of fecking Snakes and Ladders :rolleyes:

Ah for pups sake!

Come in from a days actual drinking, outside my own house, in actual real life. And find this!

Right, I'm giving up. Race to the bottom it is!!

Good morning elves, welcome to day 20 of the Forum Games Sheepish Advent Calendar!


Proper Christmas music today...


Q12: The biggest selling single of all time is Bing Crosby's "White Christmas". To the nearest million, how many units has it sold worldwide?

As always, PM me your answer before 7pm.

Ah here, most of us struggled with picking a number between 1 and 20 yesterday, so today you give us a choice between 1 and eleventy-seven-gazillion? :eek:

Kolido

Including digital downloads ?

Got to mix it up

I'm looking at the number on the Guinness World Records website and it doesn't specify. I don't think it includes digital though. Of course, doesn't matter what I think, it matters what everyone else thinks!

the purple tin

I'm dreaming of a sh*te Christmas... :pac:

I have a foolproof strategy for questions that are in the millions and if any of you ruin that strategy I won’t be angry but I will be disappointed.
