Blueballs Factory: How many Balls are in This Picture?

If they stay still long enough, I would about 120 blue balls.

Regards JD.

I should have pointed out that the Graphic is a "wrap-around" one, both vertically and horizontally.

Example:

Any ball which exits to the left of the graphic, arrives in at same elevation from the right.

Any ball which exits to the right of the graphic, arrives in at same elevation from the left.

Any ball which exits to the top of the graphic, arrives in at same reference point below from the bottom of the graphic.

Any ball which exits to the bottom of the graphic, arrives in at same reference point above from the top of the graphic.

Can you get the exact number?

Enjoy.

Kind Regards....

You should try converting this into one of your smileys.

115?

got engaged fully during the lunch break but not sure.

thanks

I'm going with 105. Alternately a correct response could be 103 since 2 turn red.

My wife is right, as much as I enjoy this forum, perhaps I may have too much time on my hands lately.

Answers: 217 This answer appeared from nowhere, when I tried to freeze the graphics. Blue spots before my eyes tonight, I think I'll go back to counting sheep.

122 counting the liquified one.

There are some health & safety issues.

I doubt that the repeated decapitation of the blokes top and bottom centre, is being done in a humane fashion.

I think there is just one ball of extremely uncertain whereabouts.

I originally got my graphic off an internet website a few years ago, but it had a dark background, perhaps being a corrupted version.

I removed the dark background, so the process could easily be seen.

It does appear to be a section of a larger graphic.

For those interested, there is a larger graphic version here: http://blueballfixed.ytmnd.com/

As may be seen there, the graphic there has also been "fixed" and is more impressive.

It is good to see where the balls actually go.

A true example of mass production techniques.

Now all that needs to be done, after your ball count, is to discover the graphic designer.

Kind Regards....

I am going for 6.

Sorry miscounted last time (poor eyesite)said 6, please change to 5.

Cheers

I saw 5 paths, however more balls are in play at one time in each of the 5 paths; in levels of 5 or ten balls per layer.

hmmm ...

121, I think.

BUT, not matter if right or wrong, this is the coolest waste of time I've ever had .

Thanks

120 ± 5 accounting for my vision acuity uncertainty.

BTW I must be mad... nearly 60's, more than 35 years experience and... counting blue balls!!!

You're a bit cruel Sparky

Kind regards

118

119

Since it is a factory and the box at the end falls open and drops the ball I would say there is only 1 finished blue ball at a time in the picture.

and if you look closely, who do you see counting the little blue balls

I want this for a screen saver.

none because balls are spheres and this is displayed as a 2d animation =]

Hello Sparky,

How many days must we wait to know the correct answer?

At least in "challenges" there is a expected date...

Or you're more cruel than I previously thought and you are waiting we do the work for you?

My poor eyes gave up!!!

Anyway...

Merry Christmas for believers and Happy Holidays for everybody
