6.64, but that’s screwed because my hand slipped on the first ‘find midpoint’ (didn’t quite understand how the thing worked) and my error was 59 units… Also, I’m still in the middle of my first cup of coffee.

Hmmm, maybe that’s why my projects look like something Dr. Suess rejected as too weird looking. Great link, thanks for posting it.

I had these scores: 3.73, 4.15, 4.16, 4.50

Then, strictly in the name of science, I tried playing after a couple of glasses of wine. My scores were 5.38 and 5.08. I have learned not to eyeball while under the influence.
