ZFR: I think I'll skip it for the time being anyway.
True, but I think the safe assumption is that it's out without getting into the complexities of Scandinavian Geography. I doubt it was meant to be a trick. But I do find Karelia fascinating. Would love to visit someday.

Edit to add guess - and probably last for me tonight:

lol, wrong thread:

Again, please, take a look at this to see if it's correct. :)

mrkgnao: Passwords / Cate archer/ China
For ZFR

Just landed.
Where's the vacation spot?

Oh, and that was going to be my next guess. So...moving down the list it's

User Accounts / Cate Archer / China
If one assumes Finland is out, 648 combos possible and 115 guesses on the board towards those (17.7%).

By room (alpha):

1) 31 of 216 guessed
2) 36 of 216 guessed
3) 48 of 216 guessed

By hero/ine top 2:

AR) 29 of 36 guessed (7 left!)
Ga) 11 of 36

Pretty big drop-off there from 1 to 2.

By country:

Bit of a surge in 'China' guesses.
China: 30% used
couple others at 20% (Fra/Vnm) but on the whole not much to see there.

drealmer7: I've almost guessed no documents besides passwords and floor plans and of course lots of April Ryan. Of course, this could also mean that _Slaugh_ has seen my patterns of guessing and has purposefully not eliminated them to keep me distracted on them!
The human desire is to create narrative, even where none really exists. ;)

As you note a few of us more than others have banged certain patterns, so when the next clue comes we're boom or bust. Either a lot stays on the table, or everything falls off. You/I/zfr stayed up, while helpo fell way off in the last round of clues.

Of course, it doesn't hurt that we're also both putting 10+ guesses on the board a day, so even if we dipped low, 20 hours after the last hint we're right back into double digits!

Yeah, I could see either 2 heroes (down to 576 less guesses) or 1 hero / 1 country (561). Unless Slaugh is ready for the game to end, in which case go out with a 1/6/2 blaze of glory! (240)

Overall: 159 guesses on the board against 648 combos - 24.5%

By document (alpha):
1) 38 of 216 - 18%
2) 55 of 216 - 25%
3) 66 of 216 - 31%

Top heroine:
AR: 33 of 36 - 92%

Top hero? (Didn't do a thorough check, just eyeballed)
Ga: 16 of 36 - 44%

Country:
China: 18 of 54 - 33%


Was tempted to pull more data on hero/country, but let's hope a few get knocked off here soon. I don't really want to pull 30 data points ;)

helpo1: (Yes, I know it was guessed already.)
That's an...interesting strategy then. ;)
