Post by what_no_pies » Wed Nov 29, 2023 1:26 pm

You are invited to estimate the number of Bamboo Shoots in my tin:

Kingfisher Oriental Bamboo Shoots In Water, 225g.

Points will be awarded for the closest estimate(s) of number of Bamboo Shoots and bonus points for the amount of residual liquid.

There shall be no faffing on with weights of tins or such folly.

Entries are welcome until midday on Saturday when the estimating window will slam shut.

TBH I quite like the purity of this count, simple and to the point, just what we need on Saturday, this could well be the return of the mystical power.

Number of Bamboo Shoots and scores:

105ml Water

StayingDown4Ever takes 5 points for their estiamte of 62 Shoots - just 3 away.

Eloise Laws takes 5 points for their estimate of 100ml - just 5ml away.

Well done to both of you and thanks to all the other counters for your valued contributions.

It was an honour to count for you today. I would like to my bonus points for conducting this count as a sacrifice to the counting gods. May they be on our side today.

An excellent count what_no_pies and congratulations to StayingDown4Ever and Eloise Laws. I will update the leader board at some point over the weekend. But for now let’s get behind the Mighty Clarets in the football game. Come On Burnley.
