First Id like to thank everyone for competing, and for those who have been watching. Its been a blast- we have seen some great watches and learnt some awesome things about what we wear and who we wear them proudly with. Secondly- I have been a bit relaxed with the rules in the hope to enable participation- But we need to be fair and it is a contest that involves prizes- when pip was called out for his shiny watch as the non scratched up watch in the challenge 1- I figured I would have to use that as the measure for everyone to be scored against. For that reason meepokta & andycapp for date missing/ incorrect I can’t reward the 3 points for that challenge. That means for the top 4 with a perfect score is cd_god leffemonster tritto & Mr.JonesI’ll update the tiebreaker, prizes & raffle today. Here is the spreadsheet- please check your points and score. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CXUjFMG_-uG_BD3sA9sVd8RXGLoXOR8YPQ3xbw44smM/htmlviewAnd the leader board. sites.google.com/site/ws2018leaderboard/

Cell R11 -HiBeat Day 8 - Missing the "3" point entry Cell T11 - HiBeat Day 9 - only earned 2 points on Day 9, showing 3 points earned. So the corrected total goes up by 2 pts to 26 points. A few more ping pong balls in the lottery barrel ! CLICK ON PIC to enlarge

Jonas and his gubment colluded with the Feds on the video point.
Can we get a special council set up to make him resign from the finals before they even investigate or eventually rule on the charges

cd_god I’ve contacted the feds and they said there was nothing to see here. They could neither confirm nor deny any collusion.

Of course that is what they said
I know a place on the interweb you can go to talk about that

For the Fantastic Four- those who made it through the challenge without scrutiny from contestant or myself- it’s draw time.
We have 3 prizes for the 3 who can guess the number of people lining up/ being served for coffee at my workplace at 10:08 Monday morning.
The cafe also has a counter to identify whose coffee is done. It is a number between 1 & 99
I have sent a personal message to each of the Fantastic Four and will publish the guesses once they are all in.

I'm not sure such weirdness can be tolerated, underside of the wrist indeed! What next, watches on the right arm? It's like civilisation has collapsed...!

What can I say, I like playing with numbers, I'm at work late and not going anywhere as the M25 near me has been shut for the last two hours. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you "The Anal Analysis" For info I have excluded camrok from this as he wasn't eligible. The maximum points possible this year to any individual was 44. This would have meant 10x3 point days, a UWD (unique watch day) bonus, a video bonus and stealing points from all 12 other people who posted UWD entries. We had four admirable 32 pointers but no steals. And three gutted people with 31 points! The most popular challenge (by which I mean the one that gained the most points) was challenge 13: Battery or hybrid watch/elec or hybrid car/charge lead. This took 11% of the total points in the whole competition. This was followed by 2: most expensive/wreck building/smallest coin. Not one single person attempted challenge 7: Advertising watch / Store / Product (although I nearly did it and had two different ways in mind but always went with another choice instead!). This was also the only challenge with no points from any of the winners, they covered every other challenge between them. And finally a point of error I think I spotted while doing all my adding up - HiBeat entered challenge 9 twice: on day 1 for 2 pts and day 10 for 3 pts. I'd guess only the 3pts is allowed? You'll need to check your master record camrok and apologies if this is wrong to both of you. (My info is taken from Cam's spreadsheet). Well done everyone, especially the new grandmufti camrok , it was well run and bloody good fun!

Bloody hell pip, are you a closet accountant or summat?? All that Berks sun gone to your head? I considered doing the ‘advertising’ challenge but the only suitable watch I have is my Eurostar-branded Swatch. While I could get a shot of the watch and a Eurostar together easily enough, getting a Eurostar into the ticket hall at St Pancras represented something of a challenge - only achievable if one fell through the trackbed and into the undercroft...

pip. Thank you. I was aware of those trends. My spreadsheet is a bit floored. I will check against the threads for those days. I think the donut challenge followed by the sundial was the most attempted of the new challenges. Although the donut was a slight variant. The watch origin turned out to be fruitful in gaining a little insight into our wearers. meepokta and singlish reference was a great read.

Prizes. At this point I am looking at top 3 from fantastic 4 choose first then raffle. That will leave 2 watches and a fair booty for the raffle winners also.
There may be a further guess for those that completed every challenge.
