I think the lengths are different because of the strategy we used for cutting the paper. Some of them cut it from the length and others chose to cut from the width. Viliami and Howard probably made the longest chain because they took the time to measure and cut their strips evenly. Ben and Dion one was short because their strips of paper were big and used up most of the paper.
