10 questions, 10 different numbers, your score is your distance from the actual answers - need 10 individual answers, not a total. All guessable, even if you have limited knowledge of sport or individual sports.

Please DM me answers and when I get 10 entries I'll do a score "reveal" in the thread.

Get involved, I'm very bored.

2. Length in yards of  the longest hole at Augusta golf course?

3. Number of gold medals Britain has won at the 28 Summer Olympic Games they have competed at?

4. Combined age of Leicester's starting 11 in the last PL game played?

5. Number of rounds boxed by Floyd Mayweather Jr during his professional boxing career?

6. Combined: Number of Premier League goals scored by Alan Shearer and Scottish Premiership (2004-) goals scored by Kris Boyd?

7. Combined total in metres of Javelin, Shot Putt and Discus men's world records?
 
8. Total number of 180s thrown in the full competition by the 8 quarter finalist players in the 2020 PDC Darts World Championships?

9. 2017 World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall holds the deadlift world record, how many kgs is the record?

10. Total transfer spend in millions by Manchester City over the last 4 seasons, according to transfermarkt.co.uk (16/17, 17/18, 18/19, 19/20)?

.

Is quedtion 8 correct?  Should it be the final 8, as there were more than 8 players in it?

Entered my answers.

Yes q8 is ambiguous but I didn't let that stop me putting in a terrible guess

sent....total guestimates!!

sent cheers scotty

My guess was the total 180s for the entire event.  Can you clarify if that wasn't the case and i will resubmit my answer.

Sent, i gave the number for entire tourny & also a number if it was just for the top 8 players

Sent - assumed that question referred to q/finals in.

This

Yeah was QFists, don't know how I missed that. If that clarifies for anyone then can resend.

8 in, couple more and I'll bang answers out.

Resubmit if you can Arb. If you haven't by time I reveal then I'll just remove that question for all.

resent

9 in so far. Will start the reveal at 6 so still time for people to get in right up until that deadline.

I think that was almost certainly the trickiest question.

Probably a poor question since people can actually know that one spot on. Well done to those who did though.

One question to go and Arb has a huge lead but the last question is a volatile one. Close in behind for the places.

Despite a relatively poor final question, Arb sees it out comfortably to take the victory. Impressive scoring.

Well done to Ledders and TightEnd, who complete the top 3 respectively.

Big thanks to all who took part, appreciated. Version 2 coming tonight for a tomorrow reveal, with all answers under 100 which should give a closer game.

I'm happy with that after my debacle with the gold medals! Think I did total medals in my quick maths (that's my story & I'm sticking to it).

Thanks for running! In for the next

Post Quiz Analysis

Rubbish247: Got off to a really solid start but the Mayweather question essentially knocked him out of contention. A poor final question knocked him off the podium and in to a 4th place finish.

Karabiner: Never really got going but impressive 4 pointer on the athletics question was the highlight.

Ledders: Complete mixed bag on way to a 2nd place finish. 1 pointer on the Augusta question had him up there early but was followed up by the tricky Olympics question and he couldn't recover enough to catch Arb. Zero points on the Strongman question with a 3 and 16 pointer in there too.

ripple11: Unfortunately nothing to write home about and a 10th place finish. The Leicester age question for 30 points being the highlight.

arbboy: Sat off the pace after 3 questions after a blip on the Olympics questions but from there was utterly dominant and had 5 out of 9 single point answers. Too good.

bunnydas: Absolutely destroyed his chances with the medals questions where he scored a highest of the quiz 576pts. Only accumulated 223 points in all the other questions, could easily have been a different story. Respectable finish in the middle of the field nevertheless.

TightEnd: Floated about mid-table for the majority but finished strong to take 3rd. One of a few to know Eddie Hall's figure and also scored well on the World Record question.

Doobs: Strong start but would then call his own demise ITT and he moved backwards before maintaining a mid-table finish. Mayweather's rounds really took the stuffing out of any potential challenge for the top 3. Highlight was a 4 pointer in the World Records question, although the 15 pointer on the Federer question is arguably better.

stato: Poor start and a worse finish meant stato never got going. Very impressive middle section run of 5, 34, 14 and 7 helped him to a one time 4th place but slipped to a final position of 6th.

celtic: Up with the pacemakers early but fell at the medals hurdle. Recovered with 2 and 14 points afterwards impressively but then the top scorers question did for any potential challenge. Tailed off late and had to settle for 7th place.

Celtic thought Chris Boyd was a modern day Ally mccoist! haha  had him in for 350 odd SPL goals!

Great work Scotty.  As the winner i will rattle one out over the weekend at some point.  Can't exactly say i haven't got much time on my hands.   

Good man, let me know if you struggle as I have one ready to go.

thanks for running scotty....just warming up for the next  ;)

mistook shot putt for hammer didn't help  ;D

I probably should have had hammer included, forgot it even existed when coming up with the question.

I mistook Mayweather for somebody who had only 30 fights and knocked a few more out :/ 

Thanks for running, I enjoyed that and will def participate in more.

The Fed number 1, Man City spend and Olympic medals were the best questions in terms of making educated guesses with a broad range of possible answers imo

Stick your one up thats ready to go and i will work on one in the meantime for the third one.

Well done arb.

Cheers Scotty.

 ;)

So far away on Mayweather it was embarrassing. Thanks for running Scotty.

Rechecks Mayweather scores.  Still furthest away.
