    Have a feeling I will be saying cheerio to this thread tonight :pac:
    I have so little concept of what the answer even might be (be it francs or euros or tiddlywinks), I couldn't even confidently guess at whether I'll be left standing or not...


    Another one where I haven't even a clue how many digits in the answer..... :o

    A franc was only worth about 10p when the euro changeover came. That's one hell of a devaluation in 150 years.

    I'd say the Belgian franc took a bigger dive.

    My wife told me to double what I originally put.

    I ignored her.

    I x10 my answer instead

    I worked it out scientifically.
    Son said one number, daughter said another and i sent the average
    The last Magnum in the freezer goes to the closest so we are all waiting with bated breath.

    Son won last night. Said he could work this one out. He said (Grandchildren plus 1) X a million" Daughter still thick from last night said i say (Grandchildren minus 1) X a million.

    I have to go with her because sons might forgive, daughters never will.

    PS Green&Red if my kids hate me after this you can share the blame

    Kathleen over here multiplying things by a million makes me feel an awful lot better about my lowball answer... ;)

    Is it worth putting a cut off time on this each evening?

    Oops did I get it that much wrong?

    I don't know what the actual answer is, so you could be absolutely right, but, eh, well, you know, let's just wait and see...

    Let's just say we both went in extremely different directions...

    I think you might survive... if you only have one grandchild :D

    I bet one of the stragglers thanks this :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,426 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    So I'm going to call it for tonite which means Jared Walker survives last nite and Hello 2D and Mustang Shelly are eliminated due to non entry

    Which is great news for Kathleen who was playing everyone onside, well apart from Reberreta who may have been using their bye to the fullest


    The correct answer was 5,000, Kathleen waded in with 3,000,000

    Yeah, the closest unique number to the correct answer

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    I was also unaware of the closest unique number rule.

    Still, I chickened out of entering 50,000 at the last minute so I can't complain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,241 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    So the smallest diamonds were worth €75,000 each in today's money? They must have been pretty big, smallest diamonds!
