I give you for your delectation a 130 gms bag of Maynards Wine Gums ...

The nearest guess(gum)timates are worth 5 pts & of course a spot on guess(gum)timate is worth 10 points ...


So..... how many Wine Gums in the bag in total...

Green ...
Red ...
Orange ...
White ...
Black ...

Please put your guess(gum)timates in that order for ease of adding up.

Last guess(gum)timate is 5.59pm as the ritual bag opening and counting commences @ 6pm on Wednesday 28th.

Your guess for the total does not need to equal the total of your guesses. It is a guess in its own right.

Edit...

Just been out in the car and had some Maynards wine gums ...
So I have to change White to Yellow on list, as in the box in the car there are "No white ones " but there are yellow ...
The 5 colours ...
Green ...
Red ...
Orange ...
Yellow ...
Black ...

So all the white guesses will be changed to "Yellow" if you wish to change your white guessgumtimation ...

Apologies for any confusion

We have a lot of scorers will need to collate this.

I think 11 people have points (Croydon you should have stuck with your 1st guess its cost you 10pts)

[Bosscat]

BigF and claretblue top scorers with 25 each
11 scorers in total + my 3 points for the count

Croydon why did you change your guess cost you 10 points.
