Hey sorry to be late. I think rags are super fuzzy too. Don't really see it under 61. Let's go right? I think we should get the points.

For anyone wondering what my thought process was...
Spoiler:
I thought the rugs in my house were around 50, but I knew there were many types of rugs too. I looked up "smooth rugs", and got results that looked like a 50. I then looked up "fuzzy rugs" and got results that were like a 90, so I'd figured y'all would go for the average and guess around the 70s.

Yeah, I was thinking about submitting "Lawn" as my guess but I thought it was too far to the left.

btw thanks for the feedback everyone, I think I'll be returning to more binary clues with some surprise wacky ones thrown in

I don't mind wacky ones btw (I'm late to the party).

honestly i can't say i noticed a difference, i've been fine with all of them so far

Posted: Tue May 26, 2020 7:17 am
by lilith2013
The ones I’ve used that I would consider non-binary have been Tall/Wide, Colorful/Dark, and to some extent also Smooth/Fuzzy

Team Debt Star is now up! Here's your card:

ShortTall

And the clue that your Psychic, enomis, provided is:
Ian Somerhalder
.

Your team has (expired on 2020-05-30 14:59:03) to guess where the target is. It’s now up to you to discuss and determine where
Ian Somerhalder
is on the spectrum from 0 to 100. 0 represents “Short” and 100 represents “Tall."

shiki
is your team’s current representative. Remember to provide your final answer in this format:
Guess: X
where X is between 0 and 100.

i don't recognize that name but I want it to turn out to be the name of the giant from Princess Bride but then I immediately realized have a vague enough idea of that guy's name that I can rule it out.

He acted in a show called "Smallville" apparently, so it shouldn't be any higher than 30.

The important thing to consider here is whether Ian is standing, sitting, or even lying down while measured.

While standing, he is 1.77m or 5ft 9.7in tall. 58.
While sitting, he is 3ft tall. 29.
While lying down, he is 0.5ft tall. 10.

I think playing it safe and going for the middle is best, so 29.

On average, it'll be lower for the whole world though.

ian somerhalder is american and 177 centimetres tall. the average american male is 176 centimetres tall. i also researched the world's and america's tallest and shortest people but it is very difficult to weight the scale appropriately and simply guessing slightly higher than 50 is probably preferable. is this person well known? i'm unfamiliar with all of the shows he is known for.
