I"m assuming that a tiny bit of a trophy counts - but if a trophy is completely obscured by an image on top of it then it doesn"t?

If it was completely obscured, then you can"t see it, so how do you know it is there ?


But it is still there - we just can"t see it ...........cos it"s obscured.

How many completely obscured trophies do you make it Jon? - I"ve found 4 so far.

"And the competition is to tell me how many trophies are on show in the above picture"

On show, being the operative words!  :)

Typical poker players.  A simple competition, and now we have side action.   ;D

After the first coin flip, it was a tail, so we lose the top half of the draw, leaving :-

Second coinflip, and the tension is building.  This coinflipping is clearly not a poker one as it"s levelled itself out with a head this time, meaning the bottom half of the draw departs and we are left with 3 (This was good planning  ??? )

Okay, the players remaining will play a round robin coin flipping tournament (Home and Away), 1 point for a win, 0 if you are a loser.



Good luck everyone.    ;D

First round of matches

Jumbuck   v   Waz1892

HEAD - 1 point to Jumbuck

Waz1892   v   AJDUK

HEAD - 1 point to Waz1892

AJDUK   v   Jumbuck

TAIL - 1 point to Jumbuck


The table after round 1 looks like this :-

Jumbuck - 2pts
Waz1892 - 1pt
AJDUK - 0pts


It couldn"t be closer (well, it could, but you get the idea).   Here we go with round 2.
