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
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?
