Maybe we can have 10 people draw something from 1-10 and another group of 10 draw something else from 1-10, and the two groups guess each other's 1-10 drawings.

That's perfect

Two teams, but not against each other. Cause then people would draw their assigned number poorly so the other group struggles

No competition, just a fun group game. It'll be fun for each team to root for the other to succeed with their batch of drawings

Thansk for hosting. Sorry I wasn't too helpful. Schedule has been all over the place dut to work

I was so excited when Dyl made his chart and it averaged the answer for mine to the right answer lol

I'll have to go check that chart out lol

And thanks for running it Curtis. IT was fun.

Good game Alpacas and to your team as well despite the loss. Thanks Curtis.

What I was referring to in our thread. Pretty interesting:

The Wisdom it Crowds

The opening anecdote relates Francis Galton's surprise that the crowd at a county fair accurately guessed the weight of an ox when their individual guesses were averaged (the average was closer to the ox's true butchered weight than the estimates of most crowd members).

The book relates to diverse collections of independently deciding individuals, rather than crowd psychology as traditionally understood. Its central thesis, that a diverse collection of independently deciding individuals is likely to make certain types of decisions and predictions better than individuals or even experts, draws many parallels with statistical sampling; however, there is little overt discussion of statistics in the book.

I think alpacas should be disqualified for using math and shit

All of you guess what number I’m thinking of 1-100
