Title: Guess the number #6
Post by: Pokerpops on April 03, 2020, 10:57:05 AM
Ok, I can’t promise a reveal that matches bergeroo’s, but hopefully I can at least measure up to Arb’s.

Will give a couple of days for responses.


1.  Olympic and World Athletic Championship medals won by Usain Bolt

2.  Olympic and world swimming champs medals won by Ian Thorpe. (Long and Short Course)

3.  Olympic and World Cycling champs medals by Sir Chris Hoy

4.  Paralympic medals by Dame Tanny Grey-Thompson

5.  England and Lions Caps for Jonny Wilkinson

6.  Test wickets taken by Sir Len Hutton

7.  Test runs scored by Bob Willis

8.  Top 5 finishes in Major Golf Championships by Lee Westwood

9.  Sum of the men’s Javelin, Shot and Discus world records (to 2 decimal places)

10. Sum of the women’s 100m, 200m, 400m and 800m (to 2 decimal places)



Good luck all, including me!

No idea how this 2 decimal places stuff is gonna work for the scoring. And how I'm supposed to know to that degree of accuracy!

Good point, well made. I’ll just round the answers and guesses.

All well thank you David. We are taking the self isolation very seriously and none of us have left the house for over 2 weeks now.

I've assumed the answer to question 10 is in metres. It's the easiest question here.

loved the cricket questions, much under-utilised generally

can get close by estimating test number and test average on some of them :-)

I could have a good stab at the number of tests...  not sure knowing the average helps much with Hutton.

I looked up Bob Willis's average remembering he used to be an absolute rabbit.  Was sure it was about 3... 

Only Tikay remembers Len Hutton; apparently Len came to his retirement do.
