Ideal days? Story points? I thought we were just supposed to estimate in hours and call it a day. This Agile stuff is getting way too complicated for my liking.

Didn't we cover this in that Scrum training last month? I should really pay more attention in those sessions. Wait, are we allowed to use poker cards for this exam? That would be pretty cool!

Hmm, I thought estimation was supposed to be simple, not a full-blown debate between ideal days and story points. I'll just go with the answer that sounds the most 'Agile-y'.

C) seems like the most accurate answer here. Ideal days are a measure of actual time, while story points are a relative measure of complexity. Gotta love that Agile terminology!
