Still no word on this week's winner... can only assume they're struggling to find a Corvette for my presentation. wink

I'm resigned to the fact I haven't won, but now I just want to know how little credit I've got back to play this weeks :-)

Same frown

That was after using rulers like the judges too. They know how to keep me interested with the 4C now on sale this week though!

Ok, having now seen the image, wtf were the judges on?! No where near where the red player is looking.

Watch the judging video and look how far to the left Sol Campbell's is, the fking moron.

Think I've doubled my money, so must've been close but can't check until later.

I'm done after next week. if they're expert judges... surely their guess should be somewhat similar?

Ghibli for the winning young lad, nice choice!

Have to agree. Only ben doing it for four weeks, but this is the first time i've really disagreed with the judges. The player in the middle is looking pretty much straight up IMHO.

Never mind, there's always next week! smile

Agreed too, WTF are the judges on?? Got 8 quid back for a 24 pound outlay, starting to loose the hope on this one

That's some wide grouping, all my guess were within one or two pixels of each other.

I was miles out this week as well. Put about £14 on and only got £1.64 back...Sad times.
I agree that the red player is basically looking up, so I put my guesses way to the right.

Is it possible to detect a change in the background where the ball has been edited out - or do they just replace the whole of the background?

Bear in mind the image is 2d whereas the photo is of a 3d space.

Doesn't matter where the ball was originally on the image, your playing against the placement of a judge.

Yes I think the majority of people overlook that, its pointless thinking too hard about it anyway. Just bang the crosses somewhere close to where you think it should be! smile

Tough one this week imo. I'm going for a C63 Coupe.

The guy on the right's eyes are really hard to judge...
