You do lose the set, but by what score?
|
|
By:
3-0 = 180
|
|
By:
Or if it's the highest possible average we are assuming you have the throw first
|
|
By:
No. Ignore that!
|
|
By:
You'd need to throw second
|
|
By:
180 highest possible, hit one then miss the board with every other dart. Booom.
|
|
By:
If you throw first, you have to get a nine darter for a 167 leg average
When your opponent throws first, he hits a nine darter whilst you throw two 180's for a 180 leg average |
|
By:
I suspect that we are all still stuck in the second box that Clydebank mentioned .....
|
|
By:
Throw 2nd in every leg or just the starting one? If you throw seconds in every leg starting second I think you can go 180, 180, but your opponent throws 9 darter each time.

By:
Title says at the World's, so leading on alternative legs.
|
|
By:
ok so think i've got it
|
|
By:
Yep stuck in the second box
![]() A bit of seemingly illogical lateral thinking needed. |

By:
175.1?
|
|
By:
180 - leg 1
167 - leg 2 180 - leg 3 167 - leg 4 180 - leg 5 Against the starts average = 174.8? |
|
By:
* scrub my last answer - just realised mis-calc :(
|
|
By:
You're the third one of us to apply that logic and get 174.8 :-)

By:
and mine already been discarded

By:
Ok, going for an average of 180, you retire hurt after losing the opening leg

By:
175.44 losing 3-0 and with your opponent starting?
|
|
By:
Correction, 178.48
|
|
By:
"180 - leg 1
167 - leg 2 180 - leg 3 167 - leg 4 180 - leg 5 Against the starts average = 174.8? " ..... The average is 173.5 because you've thrown 3 times in the 167 legs and only twice in the 180 legs. But 173.5 isn't right anyway |
|
By:
^still can't see better than that answer (173.5) at the mo... :(
|
|
By:
You might have cracked the second box Lat. but have been let down by your addition
|
|
By:
1-0, Score 180, 180, lose to a 9 darter
2-0, Score 180, 180, 139, lose to a 9 darter 3-0, Score 180, 180, lose to a 9 darter 174.14? |
|
By:
^ well done Lat, that's got to be it surely?
|
|
By:
slight adjust to that, 174.2857, hit 140 rather than 139 .....
|

![]() To crack the second box you have to figure out that to achieve the best possible average you don't want to get the best possible score. |
|
By:
scrub that, you can't sit one one

By:
You can' be left on 1 Angoose. You'd be bust.

Got there eventually

|
By:
That's a good one and we all jumped in to the trap ....
|
|
By:
that will be a bloody bad last dart to leave double 1

By:
Yeh, that was a good question Clyde. Thanks for that one, and well done Lat.
|
|
By:
NS - It would be a bloody bad penultimate dart to not leave a finish!

The correct answer is surely 175.44444?

By:
180 180
180 180 139 180 180 1,219 points, 21 darts thrown, 58.05 per dart, 174.14 three dart average |

By:
cheers Angoose, I was forgetting that the 2nd leg score was achieved with 9 darts rather than 6 in leg 1 & 3.
