No. 8
Did anyone else have to write an X either on paper on invisibly on the table before responding?9 -

I’m cackhanded and an 8 too.McBobbin said:8 for me. I'm a southpaw/cackhanded wandering if there's correlation? One thing I've noticed from a couple of left handers of my acquaintance is that they do ticks backwards. The big bit then the little bit. They should be hung as witches.
Also, when I mark a student’s work, I draw my ticks backwards (I do the small bit first, then the long bit, but the small bit is on the right - the only reason is that it’s quicker for me to do it that way and that’s vital when marking 200 odd test papers over a weekend!)0 -

Didnt know there was a different way of doing it, it felt awkward trying to do an invisible tick from right to left on my desk a second ago - Certainly going to get questions when others come into the office shortly and see all these imaginary ticks and crosses thats for sure0 -

Only on Charlton life will I ever see a group of people discussing how they right the letter ‘x’ on a Monday morning.
I’m a 7 too.2 -

All results will be sent to the police and anything other than 7 will mean hard drives being checkedShootersHillGuru said:8 but is there any reason behind this ?

5. You are already at the bottom at the end of the first stroke, so it's logical to start the second stroke "while you are down there"...

This. 8 for me. I blame A-level Physics and Econometrics at Uni.lordromford said:If writing an x while writing a sentence, I’ll do number 8, but if writing an x while using algebra, I’ll do a ‘curly’ x, sort of like two letter ‘c’s, back to back. (I’ve always been told that mathematicians do this to help distinguish between an ‘x’ and a multiplication sign, which seems feasible, but I don’t know for sure if it’s true...)
(The psychiatrists will probably say that those that say 8 are more likely to commit mass murder or something!)0 -

Unless there is some reason for asking the question I really don’t get it.0

Only in as much as it means you follow the same pattern as me (I'm right handed), but in reverse, which might be because you are a left hander?AFKABartram said:
