Stats experiment

How many M&Ms are in this bowl? Tell me your answer in the comments (without looking at others' first).

(Full disclosure, I don't know the answer, it's a contest for a "fun event" at work and I figured I'd try crowdsourcing as my strategy)

Comments

Probably a good strategy. I'm going to go with... 170.

(Ooh, you should probably screen the comments, though, so people's answer's don't influence each other.)

It's a good idea but I figure people will comment first before looking at the rest of the comments.
