Reasoning & candidate comparison Contains the answer
Build an exact checkout from the actual board
- Use the recorded board for “Countries by wine drunk per person”, where values are litres of wine a year. The target is 100, so work backwards from the remainder instead of selecting famous or high-valued entries alone.
- Choose Moldova, worth 57: 100 − 57 = 43 remaining.
- Choose Andorra, worth 42: 43 − 42 = 1 remaining.
- Choose Algeria, worth 1: 1 − 1 = 0 remaining.
- Checking every distinct-entry single, pair and triple on the stored board finds 246 exact 3-dart checkouts and no exact checkout using fewer darts. The chosen sum is 57 + 42 + 1 = 100.
| Candidate / approach | Assessment | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Moldova (57) + Andorra (42) + Algeria (1) | Exact checkout | The recorded values sum to 100 in 3 darts. |
| Moldova (57) + Andorra (42) + Azerbaijan (1) | Equally short alternative | 57 + 42 + 1 = 100. This uses the same minimum number of distinct board entries; it is not scored lower in this calculation. |
| Moldova (57) + Portugal (57) | Overshoots | 57 + 57 = 114, 14 above the target. This is an illustrative calculation, not a recorded player attempt. |
What this does and does not establish
- Calculations use the values stored for this puzzle, including the game’s rounding and scaling. They are not updated real-world statistics. Candidate combinations use distinct entries; the count here covers only the minimum-length combinations, not all longer ways to total 100.
