Default The modern abacus

Hmm...I build a spreadsheet to tabulate all of our Kraken numbers but something isn’t adding up.

I have 89 cards that are 1 pointers
I have 32 cards that are toughies, as listed in post #1

But my excel sheet only makes these add to 244, not the coveted 250.
I looked twice , maybe three times but it’s after midnight here...anyone care to check the math again?

To that point, I might have missed something but I have this electronic abacus file available to share so you can easily calculate your own Kraken number, just by clicking either “have” or “need”. There’s even a pie chart and some math formulae to help determine how close you are to the set, and the percentage of common (one pointers) versus “toughies”.

Let me know if you’d like the sheet... of course it needs to be fine tuned since my dreary eyes only see 244 points!
