For 6, do you mean the average of all men and women, or the sum of the average for men plus the average for women? E.g. if this were about weight and I thought the average man weighed 200 and the average women weighed 150, should I put 175 or 350?

Umm yeah I checked my answers and I'm most certainly not in the running for this one.

Didn't think my answers were particularly absurd, just very wrong

Has anyone made a guesstimania scoring sheet/programme yet? I'd run some but I really find it difficult to score
