Thanks...
I know quite as few students who have a keen "eye for detail" and a similar number of adults who don't.
If there was an odd number of disks on the centre line last year, where did the extra disk go? I know the answer.

As Gregor will tell you, on the side of the scoring table. It's in your manual.
Gregor - Point taken, I should have said "newbie volunteer" or "overworked field supervisor" but my point still stands. Eyeball tests from a distance are not to be trusted, and as the day goes on, I would expect the geometry of the balls to change enough to confound a shape-reliant manipulator, and not be noticed by the field crew.
