I feel lonely among those cracks who never fail.
If you want, I can post everyones scores from game 660 on.
Data collection has been a hobby of mine since my military service.
hmmm....
Actually, I wrote down how many stamps I had from each country, right before I joined, so it's possible I've been fascinated with numbers my whole life.

That data is clearly biased though so it is not as informative as getting the actual numbers from people.

I'll take that as a no.

Well, up to @fresh_42 who asked for the data, but I would assume significant bias towards solutions with lower guesses just based on my own anecdotal experience. Even if not intentional, I feel much more inclined to share “good” results. If I solve it right after midnight and make a soso attempt, I might just go to sleep instead of jumping onto PF to share. In fact, it happened just last night:

The third guess was really badly chosen. It put me off somewhat and so when I was done I just felt like going to sleep.

I publish bad results on purpose. I hope it makes the others feel better and motivates them to do better. My fails have many different reasons. Sometimes I lacked concentration, sometimes patience, sometimes they were words I did not think they qualify (literally German words, comic speak, or simply out of my vocabulary).

Errare humanum est.

All I am saying is people will have whatever reasons not to publish and that this will bias the data. Therefore data collected from this thread will invariably come with bias.

This would open up an interesting thread about statistics and testing hypotheses.
