Well… that was a fun little contest. We will do it again in future for sure.
Shout-out to the two extremes…
The pessimist award goes to Lyn Garnier’s guess of 1,123.
The optimist award goes to Larry Lacoursiere’s guess of 362
Also, shout-outs to the “pretty-close” club:
Nicky Owers’ guess of 699 missed by 9
Denise Praill’s guess of 714 missed by 6
Cadence Jensen’s guess of 807 had all the right digits… backwards.
So… congrats to Andy Sellars – whose guess of 712 missed the actual 3-day total (258+238+212) of 708 by only 4.
To put these numbers in context… this is the best weekend we’ve had since October, and that linear descent continues to hold. I’m sure it’ll tail off eventually, at some point, but for now… it looks very good. If this continues, we’d be down to single-digit case counts by the third week of June. Who knows… all of this is certainly being helped by the fact that we just crossed a significant milestone… more than 3,000,000 B.C. individuals have had at least one dose.
Andy, well done! Please let me know your worthy charity of choice.
And the rest of you, sharpen your pencils and/or clear your spreadsheets; we’ll do it again next week.
Yay the jaded, broken optimist in me is encouraged that my pessimistic guess was wrong 😊 so now…what was your guess?
Cmon larry the old $1 trick eh
Congrats to all BC peeps
Entertaining to follow for sure 😉👍
Haha, I was pessimistic indeed 🙂 I was thinking the long weekend fallout, but of course, things were still locked down then. Will see what it looks like in a week, after almost 2 weeks of being more open.. A fun little contest Horatio!
