Hah this was fun. I don't recall seeing this game posted before. Anyway I lost, but I also didn't realise I could flip to see different angles. I like the data graphs showing the most common answers

It's new! I've been working on it for over a month and today's puzzle is only the 11th so far! I love when daily games have stats so I'm trying to have some fun ones with graphs, glad you like them :D

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

Oh! Cool! Well thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

Okay I love this. I did terribly today but I appreciate the work that went into all of it and also the cool stat pages after

So, the number in the result is not actually accurate? Or is it really a round number?

[–] aukspot@piefed.social 6 points 2 days ago

It's accurate within 1%, but I could add some kind of disclaimer for puzzles like this! This puzzle I only counted 20% and inferred the rest based on weight sampling, but the others I counted all of them by hand

Wow, I got closer than I thought on the first guess, wildly overcorrected up (went about 3 times over) and then took the average of the two.

I was far off. Did you manually count them?

[–] aukspot@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I manually counted 20% of them, then I used a high precision scale to calculate the rest based on their weight (as well as the weight of other samples)! So the "true" answer should be very close to the given answer, like within 1%. How do you feel about me inferring the answer based on the weight of samples? I'm interested in what people think about that. This is the only puzzle I've done it for.

[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think it's completely fine. My question was meant as kind of a joke, because I wouldn't want anyone to count them all manually.

Thank you for creating these. Brings some more variety to the community.

[–] aukspot@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago

Haha, I enjoy counting! There's something meditative about it. And no problem, I've been meaning to make this game for a long time, I'm happy some people like it!
