It keeps throwing me when we go from one page to the next.

logicticus · Post Post #81 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:39 am

at critical times too

The Fonz · Post Post #82 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:40 am

Yeah. I nearly missed my answer on round 2, because i kept refreshing, not realising it'd gone onto page 4.

The Fonz had a 7 letter word "Marines". Unfortunately for him, there isn't actually an N!

Logicticus comes in with an 8 though, "Smarties".

8 points to logicticus.

Fonz for the first numbers round. You simply choose how many Large numbers you want "1, 2, 3 or 4", and I'll fill in the rest.

The Fonz · Post Post #84 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:42 am

Two large ones, please.

How long do we get?

logicticus · Post Post #85 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:42 am

do we have to use all numbers?

The Fonz · Post Post #86 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:43 am

SSF: ARe we allowed proper nouns then?

somestrangeflea · Post Post #87 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:46 am

As before, you get 60 seconds.

No, you do not have to use all the numbers, but you can only use each number once.

No, proper nouns are not allowed.

Everyone set for the numbers round?

logicticus · Post Post #88 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:47 am

im ready, but 60 secs seems really short

That confuses me, then, since Smarties are a brand name, and therefore a proper noun.

The Fonz · Post Post #90 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:47 am

Yeah. Can you not make it 120 if we both agree?

logicticus · Post Post #91 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:47 am

smarties is also just a regular noun

logicticus · Post Post #92 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:48 am

i agree to 120

somestrangeflea · Post Post #93 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:48 am

No no. I checked. Smarty is an actual word, and Smarties is it's plural.

I'll extend the numbers rounds to 90 seconds then. Sound fair?

The Fonz · Post Post #94 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:48 am

90? Ok so.

logicticus · Post Post #95 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:48 am

yeah, 90 works

The Fonz · Post Post #96 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:49 am

So how long is it?

somestrangeflea · Post Post #97 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:49 am

OK, 90 seconds it is.

somestrangeflea · Post Post #98 (ISO) » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:50 am

So, here are your numbers:

100, 25, 1, 8, 9, 2

Use those numbers, and basic math (+, -, *, /, and no decimal numbers), to get as close to your target as you can, then PM me your working out. Your target...

424
