TINNED FOOD ****: Princes Mixed Berries in Light Syrup (290g)

Post by Rowls » Wed Jan 20, 2021 7:08 pm

Good evening ladies and gentlemen.

Today's tinned product for our fod count is Princes Mixed Berries in Light Syrup (290g)

Liverpoo l away is gonna be a tough ask and we'll have to be on our best game. With that in mind I've decided to change formation slightly and go for a mixed foodstuff.

You'll need to place guesses for the following tinned mixed berries:

Cherries
Blackberries
Strawberries
Blackcurrants
Blueberries

It may be that the Oompah Loompahs at the Princes tinning factory chop up the larger of these berries so for clarity befre the tin is opened ANY HALF PIECES OF FRUIT OR FRAGMENTS SHALL BE GLUED TOGETHER TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT NUMBER OF FULL BERRIES. So for example two half strawberries will count as a single strawberry.

I believe this counting rule was brought in by the Grand Enumerator Arnold Pieman in 1929 after the infamous controversy when a counting team from Blackburn were found to be artificially splitting their pea soup with concealed palette knives.

While I'm counting the little blighters could somebdy nip down to Burnley Central LIbrary and find out what the difference is between a fruit, a berry and currant?

Also, how did cherries and blackcurrants if this is supposed to be a tin of berries? Blackcurrants are surely currants and cherries are cherries not cherryberries.

Beri-beri is something different though. No need to look that one up (unless you want to).

Good luck with your estimates!

Hi Rowls,
I've not taken part in this important UTC ritual before and feel that your regular contributors may benefit from a team member whose lack of edible numerical alertness may release a bit of tension from their toilings whilst compiling their estimate.

If allowed my novice guess is as follows ;-

Cherries 6
Blackberries 6
Strawberries 4
Blackcurrants 14
Blueberries 12

Mixed syrup 120ml

Cheers Rowls.

Oh I should have clarified this earlier:

Winner in each individual fruit category will receive 2 points. Person whose guess total most closely matches the total number of berries will receive 3 points.

Anyone who declares a total number that does not correlate with their individual guesses will be sent a stern letter and asked to think about what they've done.

Person with the most points will be adjudged to have most accurately guessed the number of berries most closely.

Normal juiiice rules apply.

Hi Nonayforever!

Some excellent guesses there and all in numeric notation. I've checked in my big book of numbers and all of your guesses are in the book so should be valid.

Other valid numbers you could have had include 7, 9 and 22. (This list is not exhaustive)

Well played & good luck!

Sorry, Rowls, but whilst you have chosen an excellent Commodity, the official Rule 33 (b) with regard to Fragmentation is clear. Any Unit of half the size or greater of the average full Unit Counts as a whole one, whilst any of less than that size is discarded. Pieman's Rule in fact went out back in the Seventies, and I sincerely hope you will save your glue for model-making instead. :?

Regarding points, I presumed you were familiar with the procedure for mixed Units. The usual five points are awarded for the nearest Estimate of total Units (and the normal three in the case of jooose), but single additional points (not twos or threes) are scored for best guesses as to the various types of Unit combined within the Tin. :)

I shall enter my Estimates once you have acknowledged this important post. Meanwhile, would you like me to post the present leaderboard so that you can update it and post a new one following your Count Result? Or should I look after this feature on your behalf? 8-)

Evening Admiral!

With regards to Rule 33 (b) I fear that if the fruits are excessively chopped and none of them comprise a whole half fruit then we shall record a false positive. Or a positive false. Or no fruits at all. This could undermine everything.

The problem is as to whether an "average unit" refers to an average strawberry/blackberry or the average size of a Princes tinned unit of strawberry/blackberry etc.

Obviously I'm willing to go with Rule 33 (b) but await your advice on how to best interpret it.

Regards the leaderboard post that here and I'll do my best to update it.

Yours numerically

Midshipman Rowls

Glad (and relieved) that you've got that, Rowls, but can you confirm your intention to award only one point, according to the Rules and as suggested above, for each Winner of a separate Unit Count?

I'll leave you to get on with it once this is clarified! :D

Yes of course!

I should have explained better - I was not intended to offer these points to the leaderboard. These were points to be awarded to decide who received the official leaderboard point (singular).

As Bryce Forsooth once said, "What do points make? Points make point, singular."
