Reveal incoming...!

I think yesterday scared people low, the median answer was just 13

Shelly and Strawbs got the most scared, after both being very high yesterday, both went for 1 today

Duffman takes maximum points alone, but a good few score well. Spook and Hyblaeus got a bit carried away and lose points. khalessi, Barney and 2D were very close to the correct answer, but don't score well

Harsh one today - very close to the real answer but you slipped four places. Even I think it's a stupid game sometimes

Actually, no

I like the spread of scores today. When I designed it I didn't anticipate so many large negative scores like on some other days, who knew how crazy some of you were? :pac:

khalessi · 14-12-2020 08:49PM

Damn it!!! Goiing the wrong direction for world domination!!!!

You were the closest to the correct answer, if that's any consolation

There's three places called "Beth", maybe they only count half

Wait til the family finds out that I'm 30 points behind Mother of 4.

the purple tin · 14-12-2020 09:15PM

Another step up the leaderboard

Providing I carry on like this and have no slip-ups, I could come 30th.

Everyone's in

So, today's answer is 28
Linky-link

So a good bit higher than yesterday. But did yesterday scare everyone into going low?
It definitely did!

That website is quite cool, for example there are 28 places called Santa, but I won't milk this question any more!

Doesnt make any difference to median scores but that site doesn't list Bethlehem Town Land in West Meath

Bethlehem has an area of:

792,117 m² / 79.21 hectares / 0.7921 km²
0.31 square miles
195.74 acres / 195 acres, 2 roods, 37 perches
Nationwide, it is the 35647th largest townland that we know about

Within Co. Westmeath, it is the 767th largest townland

F**k sake, I even said I was better off getting it wrong low!

I'm just happy to be slowly creeping up the table after being dead-last and 7.5 points adrift by Day 5
