Size It Up answer: October 11
The five Mixed silhouettes for October 11, with the true sizes. If you have not played yet, this page is a spoiler — play these five first, then come back to argue with the numbers.
Day 38 ran from a European mole (15 cm) to Table Mountain (1.086 km). The widest gap was round 1, Acoustic Guitar against Soccer Ball, at 4.7×; the closest call was round 4, Saltwater Crocodile against Apollo Lunar Module, only 1.4× apart — the kind of round that separates a 90 from a 60.
