    I manually counted 20% of them, then I used a high precision scale to calculate the rest based on their weight (as well as the weight of other samples)! So the “true” answer should be very close to the given answer, like within 1%. How do you feel about me inferring the answer based on the weight of samples? I’m interested in what people think about that. This is the only puzzle I’ve done it for.

      I think it’s completely fine. My question was meant as kind of a joke, because I wouldn’t want anyone to count them all manually.

      Thank you for creating these. Brings some more variety to the community.

        Haha, I enjoy counting! There’s something meditative about it. And no problem, I’ve been meaning to make this game for a long time, I’m happy some people like it!
