That means it is time to reveal the teams, which were generated completely at random Will you and your partner be on the same page? Will they help guide you towards the answer? Or will they drag you down with them? Let’s find out… Points will be awarded to a minimum of 5 teams for each question in this round, which may increase depending on tied answers RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Wichita Lineman - 20-10-2021 Apparently saying I have to go to a reveal isnt the right answer when you're dinner has been handed to you..................

With one glaring exception, however, as one person answered 5,698,979 which, in case you’re interested, is further away from Earth than a NASA satellite was when it took this photograph: https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/from-the-earth-moon-and-beyond That is going to be bad news for that team, as the correct answer was 466. Below is the list of individual answers on the left, and the list of team answers on the right, listed from smallest to largest (gold means two points each, green means one point each): RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Leg End Reject - 20-10-2021 (20-10-2021, 08:26 PM)quickbeam Wrote: Alright Leggy!!Sincere apologies, qb!

RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - aaronjennings - 20-10-2021 Q6: A wide variety of individual answers here, ranging from as low as 50,000 to as high as 4 million - which would almost be the entire population of Ireland. The correct answer was 550,742, but how close were the team averages? RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - nothing - 20-10-2021 Hot damn! RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - quickbeam - 20-10-2021 We're getting closer at least Leggy RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Wichita Lineman - 20-10-2021 I've driven through Connaught for hours without seeing anyone.

RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - aaronjennings - 20-10-2021 Q7: With the exception of one low estimate of 863, there was a nice, tight grouping of answers for this question. One person appropriately nominated 1,989 as their guess, with the highest submission being 5,689 And, considering the correct answer was 2,921, that means everyone is in good contention for points with this question RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Wichita Lineman - 20-10-2021 RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Trigger - 20-10-2021 Wooohooo nice one!

Cruel luck Thanks for pointing that out! RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - aaronjennings - 20-10-2021 Q8: Some of you said before the reveal that I must have had fun reading some of the answers... that was most definitely true for this question By far and away, this was the question with the greatest diversity of answers. At the low end of the scale, the smallest individual number guessed was 25,000, and at the high-end, it was a whopping 1.5 billion, which incredibly was guessed by two separate people The correct answer, as of last night, is 7,322,686, which was an in-memoriam Tweet for the late actor, Chadwick Boseman RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - aaronjennings - 20-10-2021 SCORES AFTER ROUND 2: Barney and E.N. were the highest-scoring team in that round, the former of which now holds a slender lead over the competition, with eight people just a single point behind RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - quickbeam - 20-10-2021 Whoopsie!

Or, more accurately from my point-of-view, The Apologies To Necro Round The correct answer for this question was Ohms and Mohs. Two people submitted “Ohm and Moh”, however since the Mohs Scale is named after an actual person, it means you can not have a singular ‘Moh’, and therefore I must disallow both One person also submitted “Ohm and Mohs”. Unfortunately, since the basis of Round 3 is that the words must be perfect anagrams of one another, I’m afraid I can’t allow that one either - sorry about that RE: THE REVEAL - Aaron Jenning's House Of Games - Wichita Lineman - 20-10-2021 Shom?
