I suppose that there were a bit more than 7 pieces after all.  ::)
Hooked, like everyone else. ;)

All hail the hook!

I figured an average of 10 pieces per 'segment', x3 for three segments, then guessed those ten pieces probably took up 200mm deep so x6 across the width of the trailer = 180 then -1 just in case the real answer was 181.  :P

Congratulations Mechanical.


I was close too. Just counted around 60 on the surface and multiplied x6 for depth. But there would be some smaller fillers inside the lot, that's reasonable.

That's why you loose. You did math and it was a guessing game...

I don't recall exactly how I determinded my guess.

I was going to say "100" but thought to myself that would be way to less given the fact I could almost see 100 pieces at the side.
I tried logic and calculations and eventualy said "let's just go for 400" and then I realised that the odds of a round number would be quite low.
The result shows here :D

Not really. It's 10%, the same as any other number...

Now I see it again, these are Greek letters! ΡΡΣ, in the archaic boustrophedon manner. Their number matching is 100-100-200.  :facepalm:
100+100+200 still makes 400! Nick won it either way.
