Nikolai Reinke @reink.io · 10/07/2025Great idea! 🙌😀 I think it would be nice to guess the review count on a sliding scale and get points based on the error (think GeoGuessr). Right now the middle options are a bit preferred over the first and last one, as they have two neighbouring options that give higher points, instead of only one. 110
