Why can't we get a clue which would instantly lead to the right number

I think it is below 50.
Generally heavier things are more obvious than lighter things. Eg a 0-100 scale would probably be a feather to the freakin planet?
This number could be anywhere for 30-70 imo.

Wow a difficult clue.

Blind guess is around dead center, 50. It's not so light, but not that heavy either.

enomis was right about me! i'm wouldn't make you guys suffer and expect you to find katana rendering software but it was good thinking...

. King of ISO here.

No worries. We were going to be until Hectic came up with his conspiracy theory and we all went along with it.

It was fun though, going into Katana motorcycle and rendering stuff.

yeah we seem to be thinking around the middle, lets go for either 49 or 51 to at least make a decision one way or other

So far the winning numbers have been 43, 76, 59, 5, 72.
I don't know how lilith generates the number, but by the above logic we should go below 50 maybe?

Actually the more I think about it, I feel like it's below 50, there are so many more obvious things that are heavier than a toilet. A car or a bike for example which would easily fit into the 60-80 range of this spectrum.
I feel like we should go with something in between 35-42. If we guess wrong then you can blame me

@NSG, thoughts?

a toilet is a lot heavier than a bike.

No?

lol the average weight of toilets is 40 kg, is that the clue?
Bikes are 300 kg. I think you thought bike=cycle, I meant motorcycle.

im not sure what be the benchmark 50. human weight maybe? which is like 55kg avg.
in which case i could see toilet being under. we could go like 45.

i feel like a toilet is a very nonintuitive answer. i mean, most people have probably never carried a toilet, right?

i guess it's around 50, sure.

maybe closer to 100 than 0? that is, above 50 rather than below it.

although i think i've been the opposite of correct almost every round this time, so if i am again then maybe i can be accurate by taking what i think and then just guessing the opposite.

fyi, I'm happy to share my method of generating numbers if that's something both teams want, but I think it would be more appropriate to do so after this round is over, so both teams know this information for the same number of guessing phases.

I just assumed it was completely random. You guys are going way too high right now though.

You need to consider all types of toilets.

That's the toilet Loki uses.

i would think number generation is random and in cant imagine lilith would be willing to share the method if its not random
i dont like that line of thought

so taking averages
39, 45, 50, 50

heeeeeeeeeere we go! it's the WAVELENGTH SPECTRUM!

Card:

Light

Heavy

Card and spectrum has been sent to Not Known 15.

Ooh, perfect! I was rooting for you to pick just below 50 in the background haha

In the PM, I wrote:I take 50 as the average human weight. I think while the graph from 0 to 100 might be logarithmic, around the middle 20 it's probably more linear since they're basing around their own weight.

which meant that this is spot on!

Apologies if the clue is quite obtuse! Perhaps "a 13-year-old" might be more straightforward, but I looked for things that weigh around 100 pounds and the toilet came first
