You must be since I matched you the most and least too
Just noticed the scores got updated...3rd place all by myself now.
Maybe if I check back in another week I can move up to second
Thanks for running this Amb....when's the next one  |

| I'm not really sure why, in this instance, it lists JDO as the default comparison without a referent. It's been so long since I wrote the code that i couldn't tell you if it's something to do with the order of the data list or the final rankings or even alphabetical order somehow. |

Yeah, I thought it would be interesting, and it was a precursor to an idea I had to make the results dynamic by letting you select which players to include. It turns out that (surprise?) most players match the winner most and last place least. One day I might actually employ the dynamic results idea, but until then, I don't feel like going back and trying to find out where the code for that last bit is just to remove it.

| TO be honest, I always ignore that thing. Its something wordcross added to the script that he thought would be of more use that it turned out to be. |

| I hadn't noticed that. It says the same thing (JDO) when I open it. I always clicked on my own name before scrolling down, though. |

That's literally how it reads at the very bottom when I open it. Thanks for clearing it up though, Q! |

Yeah, I meant panda bear, so it doesn't matter. |

Middle of the pack as usual. I can't believe the separation between Zag and second place - 40 points. The next seven places were within 20 points.
And how come I'm the only one who listed Cubs? |

Your entry was "Giraffe, elephant, Lion, Rhino, Panda, Bear "
I'll have to delete BEAR as it was the sixth entry. You probably meant panda bear though. |

Thanks, Amb!
Not bad for my first time playing this game. (The entry I made in the last sheep game was just me taking dictation from my wife. I disagreed with her on a few, and the score would have improved if she had taken my advice.) |

Jdo (that's you) had the most answers in common with SNT (that's Sentran) and the least answers in common with MNT (that's Mentat). |

I'm always middle of the pack. I nailed three or four of those categories though.
Who matched Jedo the most and the least? I didn't understand that note at the bottom. |

Anyway, thats the results. Im having a lot of problems finding the time to merge the answers that should be merged, so this is far from over. Please let me know what merge answers I missed.
You may notice that my answers have not been included. THis is because I have no idea where I saved the file (if at all) but I lost it, and I had looked at the other answers since - and I no longer can remember what my answers were! (Save that I put Fire for things you cant freeze) |
