Here we are again - another year almost over.... (*)

Same rules as always -
Simply PM me your answers and I will post the amount you have correct, send as many PM's with answers as you like.  To win if you have 10 correct answers we will hold a draw, if no one has 10 then the 1st prize goes to whoever has most.

Please do not post answers in this thread.

Last entry is 31st December 2022, after which I will post the prize (s) to the winner (s).

Good luck

Aaand another Christmas fun this year. Thank you!

[chrisild]

Great game again, thanks, Andy! Will see what I can come up with this time. Problem is that "between the years" there is always so much stuff that I want to do because I had not had the time to do it before ... "Oh, I'll do that in the quiet days". Ha!

Argh, grrr, I totally forgot that the end of the year was also the "end of the game". On New Year's Eve I participated in a run (just 5K, for fun), and when I came back home, I noticed that some of my running buddies were meeting almost around the corner. Thought I would at least walk by (still in "proper" shoes, shirt, etc.) and say Hello ... "oh, c'mon, you can run with us!" After that I collapsed, then had to get ready for a party, and the rest is history. But I am glad that several members participated! Andy has once again kept a fine balance, I think - don't provide too many "tell tale" details, but do not make it deterringly hard either.

[andyg]

so the results are in -

THcoins kindly allocated a number to everyone as follows -

africancoins   3
quaziright     1
eurocoin       6
mmiguel        8
mrbadexample   2   
fosseway       9
velind         7
SpaBreda       5
bart           4

Chrisild then put 9 anonymous numbers into random order as follows -

4 - 1 - 9 - 2 - 3 - 6 - 8 - 5 - 7

So the winners this year are Bart (1st), Quaziright (2nd) and fosseway (3rd)
I will be in touch - as usual I have a small prize for everyone else, just let me have an address to send it to if you would like to receive it.

All the best for 2023!
