#Microblog Monday 586: Eyeball It
Not sure what #MicroblogMondays is? Read the inaugural post which explains the idea and how you can participate too.

I’ve always thought that I’m decent at guesstimating size. Distances? I’m dreadful. But if you ask me to make a 16 cm x 9 cm square, I can usually get pretty close.
But now I have proof because there is a game (of course there is a game) where you have to try to create a shape and then see how close you are to correct. On my first try, I got 89.34%, which is a B in 501st place. Once I knew how to play the game, on the second try, I got 91.05%, which is an A in 396th place. I’m moving on up.

Please read the three rules on this post to understand the difference between a permalink to a post and a blog’s main URL.) Only personal blogs can be added to the list. I will remove any posts connected to businesses or sponsored posts.

On the first 3 (1:1, 4:3, 16:10), I got 96%, 99%, and 99%. Then it all fell apart and I ended with a B.
Much the same as a. My first I was 97% then fell apart, and got a B! Quite fun though.
I started and ended in the 98-99% but the middle was 70s and 80s. More fun than I expected!
