MyNameIsNothing: k 5 consonants, 4 vowels  (reply)

occooa: you forgot @SilentSand

racefan12: picks are public, actual submission of words is private

racefan12: you can submit more than once, best valid submission counts

occooa: he kills people who call him SS btw

Precarious: ah, I misunderstood, sorry race

occooa: ^

BestMte: Hey, I didn't understand a single world

BestMte: cool

racefan12: Anyway, so Cocoa is playing?

occooa: yes

racefan12: k

occooa: I said earlier :p

BestMte: what is the game?

racefan12: That's 5, that's probably about as much as is comfortable

racefan12: The letters for this practice round are: CMEDRIQVE

Woon1957: um

occooa: did you choose them randomly

racefan12: You have two minutes to form the longest word you can,

occooa: like random.org

racefan12: starting now

racefan12: yes

BestMte: so I guess that the fact you're ignoring me means I can't join

occooa: >Q

To Woon1957: you only need to submit one word, it's only worth submitting again if you think of something longer

Precarious: this is a practice round, right?

Woon1957: I can't count the letters  (reply)

racefan12: yes

Precarious: drive  (reply)

racefan12: 30 seconds

MyNameIsNothing: drive wow im bad  (reply)

Woon1957: edemic  (reply)

racefan12: Time

racefan12: Prec and MNIN submitted DRIVE, Cocoa submitted Medic, SS submitted nothing, but Woon wins with device

Woon1957: race is a butt

occooa: >SS

MyNameIsNothing: dat woon

racefan12: Woon would get 6 points if this were an actual round, everyone else would get nothing

Woon1957: pls what about edemic

SilentSand: oh shit wait something happened

racefan12: same length

occooa: hi SS

MyNameIsNothing: I was gonna change to crime last minute to not tie because drive was so obvious

Woon1957: but it's a funner word

Woon1957: can you pick the fun words

racefan12: no

Precarious: are identical words relevant?

racefan12: No

racefan12: the only thing that matters is the length of the word

MyNameIsNothing: oic

occooa: still not entirely sure how the number round works

racefan12: OK, for the practice numbers game, let's have Woon pick

occooa: oh

Woon1957: Oh uh

occooa: I actually forgot how the number round works

Woon1957: What do I do?

To occooa: read the pastebin

occooa: glancing at the pastebin reminded me

Woon1957: I read it I swear

Woon1957: just

occooa: how did I forget something after reading it 5 minutes ago bleh

racefan12: Pick 6 numbers, any combination of large and small

Woon1957: what is large what is small

racefan12: Woon1957: I read it I swear

occooa: "players select 6 numbers from a group of 4 large numbers (25, 50, 75, and 100) and 20 small numbers (2 each of 1-10)"

Woon1957: wahh

racefan12: you just say X large and Y small

Woon1957: example pls

occooa: yeah, it was confusing at first

occooa: got it now

Woon1957: 4 large and 2 small

Woon1957: ok

racefan12: ...I'll give you an example as soon as you pick

racefan12: k

MyNameIsNothing: oh god 4 large

racefan12: So the numbers are: 100, 75, 25, 50 (obviously), 4, 3

racefan12: and the target is 940

Woon1957: what do we do

racefan12: You have 2 minutes to reach as close to the target as possible

occooa: make an equation thingy

racefan12: starting now

MyNameIsNothing: ok wait actually have to go soon so i probs should participate in dis

Precarious: can we use numbers more than once?

racefan12: no

racefan12: only if they appear more than once

occooa: can we use calculators

MyNameIsNothing: sorry next time ok best can take my spot if he's still around

racefan12: sure i guess

Precarious: so in this case, wouldn't it just be add everything together?

occooa: thx so much

racefan12: you can use add subtract multiply divide

Woon1957: 100+75+25+50 * 4 * 3  (reply)

occooa: and parentheses right

Precarious: 100+75+50+25+4+3  (reply)

Woon1957: like dat?  (reply)

racefan12: and any parentheses necessary

Precarious: oh, okay

occooa: adding them all together doesn't reach 940

To Woon1957: That's 800, but that's a valid submission format, yes

racefan12: derp I didn't start my timer

Precarious: (100+75+25)*4 + 50*3 = 950  (reply)

racefan12: btw it is helpful if you include the total in your equation

Woon1957: 4(100+75+25+50)-3 = 997  (reply)

SilentSand: Wait

SilentSand: Do we have to get 940

Woon1957: wait  (reply)

racefan12: 30 seconds

Woon1957: oops  (reply)

racefan12: as close as you can to 940

racefan12: the closest gets the points

SilentSand: (100+25)*(3+4)+75=950  (reply)

racefan12: target is not always exactly possible

racefan12: Time

Woon1957: 4(100+75+25)+40*3  (reply)

Woon1957: fak u

Woon1957: last 40 is 50  (reply)

occooa: fuuuu

occooa: I was scrolled up

Woon1957: but what evs  (reply)

occooa: so I didn't see time

racefan12: Prec had (100+75+25)*4 + 50*3 = 950 (reply), SS had (100+25)*(3+4)+75=950,

racefan12: Woon submitted the same thing as Prec but a second too late

occooa: hahaha

Woon1957: >:(

racefan12: her other best submission was 997

racefan12: and cocoa submitted nothing

occooa: plsss

occooa: I had it all typed out and then I scrolled down

occooa: RIP

occooa: at least it's practice round

racefan12: So is it a little more clear now?

racefan12: inb4 no

occooa: yeah, thanks

SilentSand: yah

Precarious: yeah, that actually explained a lot

occooa: very clear now

racefan12: ok

occooa: it's very clear that I'm going to get owned 8)

SilentSand: I'm not even that good

racefan12: So we're back down to 4 players unless someone wants to replace MNIN

SilentSand: Prec is gonna own

Precarious: I guess no one else is actually looking at CG right now?

racefan12: OK. The game will have 4 letters rounds alternating with 4 numbers rounds, and ending with the final Conundrum (actually pretty self-explanatory even if you didn't read the pastebin)

racefan12: everyone will pick for one letters and one numbers round

racefan12: starting with Prec

occooa: conundrum?

racefan12: Whenever you're ready, Prec, pick some letters

racefan12: (I'll explain that when we get there)

occooa: alrighty

Precarious: 5 consonants, 4 vowels

racefan12: k

Woon1957: ee

Woon1957: eeeebbbbb

To Woon1957: was waiting for that

racefan12: time

Woon1957: im dum  (reply)

Precarious: are we allowed to send more than one word/change answers, by the way?

racefan12: Cocoa had Slate, Prec had Solace, SS had Ocelots, but Woon wins with... ACOLYTES

racefan12: yes Prec

Woon1957: I almost didn't get plural :<

occooa: ocelots :o

racefan12: Woon scores 8 points, everyone else scores 0

Precarious: dat Woon

Precarious: too scrabble for us

SilentSand: I like ocelots.

racefan12: OK, Prec, pick some numbers

Precarious: large, large, large, small, small, small

racefan12: k

racefan12: 25, 4, 50, 8, 100, 3; Target = 715

racefan12: 2 minutes begin now

Woon1957: 25/4+50*8+100*3=706.25

Woon1957: oops

SilentSand: (8*100)-(3*25)-(50/4) = 712.5  (reply)

racefan12: 30 seconds

Precarious: (8*100)-50-25-4-3=718  (reply)

occooa: 100*8-50-25-4-3  (reply)

Woon1957: 25/3+50*8+100*3  (reply)

racefan12: Time

Precarious: 8*100-50-25-4*3  (reply)

Woon1957: oops

Precarious: no

Woon1957: lol i cant stop laughing

Woon1957: failed twice rip

racefan12: OK, so

racefan12: I didn't actually specify this... but in the actual game, fractional numbers aren't allowed

racefan12: (Strangely, that didn't come up last week)

racefan12: I mean, I don't have a problem with them if you all don't

racefan12: and you obviously don't ;)

racefan12: Anyway

occooa: that's 706.25 right?

racefan12: Prec and cocoa submitted the same thing

occooa: 8)

Precarious: I improved half a second too late

occooa: :(

racefan12: Precarious: (8*100)-50-25-4-3=718

Precarious: couldn't find the * quickly enough

occooa: poor prec

racefan12: Woon had 25/3+50*8+100*3

racefan12: which is 708 1/3

Woon1957: shhh

Woon1957: there is no 4

Woon1957: you derp

racefan12: SS had (8*100)-(3*25)-(50/4) = 712.5

racefan12: you don't have to use all 6 numbers

Woon1957: but duplicate

Precarious: noooo

racefan12: So SS wins (Prec would have won with 713 if he submitted in time)

Precarious: my improvement was 713

occooa: dammy SS

occooa: daaat prec

SilentSand: lol

SilentSand: .5 improvements wooot

racefan12: he had 8*100-50-25-4*3

occooa: damn

racefan12: So SS was off by 2.5, so he gets 7 points

occooa: I thought of that one a few seconds after time

Woon1957: wait we don't have to use all the numbers

racefan12: So before we move on, do you want to play with fractional numbers, or not?

SilentSand: I'll probably drop out here, so feel free to give my win to the closest non-fraction

Woon1957: sure ynaut

occooa: no

occooa: to fractional numbers

Precarious: I'm fine with whatever everyone else wants

racefan12: Well, it's 1-1

Precarious: does anyone care strongly either way?

racefan12: OK, let's just not play with them

racefan12: /executive decision

Woon1957: awh

racefan12: OK, so SS, you're out?

racefan12: ...And he was the only one to submit anything

Precarious: lel

occooa: dat

racefan12: So he gets 3 points

Precarious: welp

Woon1957: oh

Woon1957: it's over

Woon1957: derp

racefan12: (because he was closest, but not within 10 of the target)

Woon1957: I had 442 but lost it

racefan12: I'd honestly been shocked if anyone got much closer than that

racefan12: Anyway

Precarious: I made a half second too late improvement again (obvious one -1), but it wouldn't have mattered

racefan12: Scores: Woon 14, Prec 3, Cocoa 0

To Woon1957: ?

Precarious: I had 494 exactly for a second, and lost it :(

Woon1957: wat  (reply)

racefan12: anyway

Precarious: there it is

To Woon1957: what did you mean

Woon1957: -7  (reply)

To Woon1957: o

racefan12: But Prec had (25*4)+(6*10)+(8/4+4)=166

Precarious: That doesn't count I used the number extra

Precarious: That's why I sent a 164 after

racefan12: Right

Precarious: I found a real 166 too late, because that's what I do :)

racefan12: (25*4)+(6*10)+(8-4)=164 (reply)

Precarious: race will scramble a 9 letter word, so there's a guaranteed 9 letter answer

racefan12: For the conundrum, a scrambled 9-letter word will appear. The first person to correctly unscramble the word gets 10 points.

Precarious: first to type the word gets points
