      That's very cool. My worst was the midpoint, curiously -- but I did nail it once out of the three tries, though.

      I ended up getting a 2.43.

      I'll have to try it again later and see if I can improve on that.

        My average was 3.2 units. Not knowing what a unit is I have no idea how accurate that is in real life. That is why they invented rulers anyway.

          hmm, my score 4.66. I did have a 0.2 for one of the right angles.

            Brain Fart the first time, adjusted to a trapezoid. Second time did it right and got a 1.4. All the years on a drafting table help.

                2.46 on my only try. Good enough for 8th on the list (for the time being). Decided to quit while I was ahead... But not bad for a cockeyed old fart...
