13er maths

Post by Boggy B »

I was stalking Mike R this evening and found a discrepancy in the 13er checklist accounting. See below. He has only Star and Lizard Head left, so the correct count is 582.

Yeah, it's been like that for years, I kept thinking I would eventually climb the one it was erroneously counting, but here I am with two to go and it still hasn't corrected. I figure it's counting lizard head as I have a TR from my unsuccessful attempt? I've been hoping it will give me 585 when I finish seeing as I count Overlook Point (12998) on my list :lol:

Don't want to jinx you, but either way, let us know if/when you get the last one/ones.
I always root for "finishers".

Yeah I've noticed it was off by 1 a long time ago, even went so far as to double check the list then and nothing was checked wrong. That was very time consuming. It's either counting an unranked as ranked, or maybe counts lizard head because it has a TR associated with it? I'm curious what it's miscounting if you do figure it out.
