Concentration below 22?
« on: October 25, 2010, 09:09:19 AM »
Not really an "issue," sort of an open question.  First of all: am I the only one left who actually plays the Concentration game out on the menu?  (I don't even bother with the flash.)  I sometimes use it to kill the minutes between Addventure episodes getting refreshed with each new hour.  The best I've ever been able to do is 22 (I'm imagining the absolute minum is 16, and that odd numbers are out).  Has anyone ever lucked into a lower score?

Best score was 24, that's how far my luck took me today.

HA!  This has been driving me nuts for months and just today -- on the 13th, no less -- I did it, I solved it in 20!  IT IS INDEED POSSIBLE! ;D 8)

(Eh, suddenly I wish Shara was already back. :( )

Just had a third 20-pointer -- but I'd better quit, the point has been made.

What are the odds of a perfect score 16? That would mean never making a mistake… :o

1/1 * 1/3 * 1/5 * 1/7 * 1/9 * 1/11 * 1/13 * 1/15 = 1/2,027,025 = 0.000049333383% chance.

Yeehaw, another 20 today.

But I'm not taking Shara's bait, I don't care about 18, let alone 16.  Too old to hanker after the teens. ;)
