My total of 168 or more would put me right about my average when the game was ended by BT. Spotes said he scored 185 on my game but Bo said he did better at yours so I would be curious to hear what others think of each game as well.
I did slightly worse on Jethro's game.
first round - 30
second round - gave myself 23; would have gotten Robinson from picture but depending on which end they started it could have been anywhere between 1 and 5 points so I just split the difference and gave myself the average between the extremes. Missed the follow-up to him.
third round - 46; couldn't think of Georgia instantly so I deducted one point but would have gotten it relatively quickly; didn't know Malaysia, but could have deduced it for two at the minimum.
fourth round - 37; got 1982 for 4.0, lucky guessed 1973 for 5.0, 2007 for 4, 1995 for 4.0, quasi-lucky guessed 2000 for 5.0, 1955 for 5.0 (piece of cake
) , 1979 for 5.0 lucky guess confirmed by Petty clue, 1990 for 5.0 with a debt of gratitude to BO for his constant bitching.
fifth round - 46;
swapped O' Meara and Kite for 6.0;
nailed career hits for 12.0;
became happiest man on the planet for getting NBA rookies for 12.0;
became saddest man on planet with 4.0 on hockey arenas;
finished with 12.0 on TD catches while searching in vain for Frank Filchock to Andy Farkas
Total - 182
With the variables from the Robinson question and the spelling round, my score could have easily been exactly the same from both games. So, I suppose they're about even in difficulty from where I'm sitting.
Nothing against TomD, but you boys are good for my average.
