Format ok for this? Never done a Guesstimania. Not sure if there is a way I can improve it when/if I do another.

For the size #s I was using, didn't see much point in doing non-linear scoring.

lol considering I ****ed up my math for the first 4 questions I didn't do half bad

ended up doing it for 100 questions instead of 200

also obviously thanks JM for all the work that went in to this, much appreciated

I started this off pretty well but then soon took a nose dive

I'd like to think my score would have been better if I'd have entered it knowing how many participants there were but it would have probably been worse

thanks for running JM3 and congrats AK and the podium

Congrats, Arctic. Thanks for the games (both of them), JM3.

I'm happy I got picked for the median question. :teardrop:

It's nice when others recognize your talent for mediocrity.
I am honoured to have been the mode for this question.

Gamer Dude was actually the median regular sheep player in 2016 as well as this historic sheep. Maybe you can usurp his title this year!

Another potential guesstimania question (or bonus question) for this type of 200+ question format could be "at what question will the winner mathematically clinch victory."

For a 30 person peehs, say, the victory is guaranteed if the lead is greater than 41×(number of questions remaining). Of course, that is highly idealized, and victory will be all but certain long before that.

Useless pedantic correction:

Wouldn't it be (entrants - 1)*# of remaining questions?

Not in his PEEHS hypothetical because the maximum possible is usually 1.5x the SHEEP.
