Fun contest, it always amazes me how many of any Lego will fit in smaller spaces.
I'm sure many of us have been there when an order has 200+ of something and
even know we all know that every piece was added correctly, when you first look
at a what you have and how many were ordered, you have the feeling of... "how
am I short?" and then it works out just fine just like every other time we have
counted large quantities.
Congrats to the winner and Pops for putting on the fun!

I was surprised at the number until I spent some time looking at the pictures,
writing down all the guesses, and accounting for the clues.
Must have been my Business Intelligence background kicking in . . .

1001Bricks already gave Popsicle a clue how to make it more difficult.
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1359521
1) Is this vase full of those dome tops, or is there say a Duplo Brick hidden
somewhere at the bottom?
Or . . . perhaps Popsicle will use a container if a big dimple in the bottom
like a French Champagne bottle.

Yes, this too!
Or abusing with the version number as I don't remember who posted about this
(shame on me, sorry, but tired)...

Me too I'd won if I'd receive those pictures with the blue dots!
That's a bit unfair...

I am a terrible artist, but good at putting dots on other people's pictures.
I use a similar trick when I see an interesting collection of Lego on other selling
platforms.
The dots keep me sane when checking the value of minifigs in a big pile or identify
something interesting poking out of a big bulk lot.
Knowing how to reduce the miscellaneous part noise in pictures help me acquire
my UCS Snowspeeder (75144) and Heavy Lift Helicopter (42052) recently.

Agreed! And like all these contests I am always surprised there is so many in
the vase!
