Chutney

Aug 28 20:11:27 <notovny>	There was  a sultan wo decided that there weren't enough girls in his sultanate. So he made a law.  "From this point onward, families shall decide their number of children in this fashion.  Any child (for the purposes of this question) has a50% chance of being a girl or a boy.  A girl child means that the family will keep having children. A boy child means no more children for that family. All families will have as many childre

Aug 28 20:11:58 <notovny>	All families will have as many children as possible under these rules."   How far did the population distribution under the law skew towards girls?
Aug 28 20:12:23 <Aggie>	That seems like a stupid rule.
Aug 28 20:12:35 <Aggie>	What if a family had one boy and then WOULD HAVE had more girls/
Aug 28 20:12:36 <Aggie>	?
Aug 28 20:12:44 <Assmitten>	How fast was the train going?
Aug 28 20:12:48 <notovny>	Is brainteaser. Can make law, "Agggie was banned from this land forever, and made into chutney."
Aug 28 20:13:00 <Assmitten>	ilu
Aug 28 20:13:02 <Aggie>	lol
Aug 28 20:13:15 <Aggie>	Banned first, chutneyed later.
Aug 28 20:13:19 <Aggie>	At least you have priorities. :p
Aug 28 20:13:49 <Aggie>	First banned, then disintegrated...err, chutneyed./

Aug 28 20:14:43 <notovny>	Will have to save for later, am currently experiencing immune system failure.
Aug 28 20:14:50 <Assmitten>	ok
Aug 28 20:15:02 <notovny>	Knew I shouldn't have approved its vacation.
Aug 28 20:15:15 *	Assmitten prepares to duel Surelyfunke
Aug 28 20:15:49 <notovny>	Shall I give the answer?
Aug 28 20:15:56 <Assmitten>	YES
Aug 28 20:16:49 <notovny>	It didn't help at all. Half of all first children are boys.  Half of all second children are boys. Half of all third children are boys...  Half of all nth children are boys.
Aug 28 20:16:53 <jfade>	Hmmm
Aug 28 20:17:03 <jfade>	I don't see the way to turn supreme commander on or off
Aug 28 20:17:10 <jfade>	is it not optional now that it's mostly safe?
Aug 28 20:17:15 <Assmitten>	Hmm
Aug 28 20:18:33 <Pescado>	JFades: Yes.
Aug 28 20:18:40 <jfade>	Sweet.
Aug 28 20:18:42 <Pescado>	Now that I have deemed it to be no more dangerous than most other things out there...
Aug 28 20:18:49 <jfade>	I liked the idea but wanted to wait till it was "safe" :P
Aug 28 20:18:53 <Pescado>	THere is no reason to turn it on or off, because SupCom is an inert feature that does not function unless you run it.
Aug 28 20:19:17 <rohina>	See, notovny, if they knew the thing about when to have sex to make girls more likely, that would have helped.
Aug 28 20:19:26 <jfade>	I see.
Aug 28 20:19:35 <jfade>	I have no idea HOW to run it which is part of the problem.
Aug 28 20:19:37 <jfade>	:P
Aug 28 20:19:42 <chaos>	++++++666666666666666
Aug 28 20:19:48 <Pescado>	Well, I'm going to release a fix for it real soon, so gimme a few secs.
Aug 28 20:20:23 <jfade>	Ah
Aug 28 20:20:29 <jfade>	good cause I was JUST about to start my game
Aug 28 20:20:45 <jfade>	Also, is Indie Stone dead?
Aug 28 20:21:26 <notovny>	Well, he is Sultan, he is Fictional. He could also be well-read in the biological sciences, but alas, the libraries of Imaginistan only contain one book,  "Meditations on Attacking Camels" by the poet, Huzherr al-Stabya.
Aug 28 20:21:53 <Assmitten>	LOL
Aug 28 20:22:05 <rohina>	"Attacking" in this case being a sexual metaphor.
Aug 28 20:22:58 <Falor>	Do I curse too much?
Aug 28 20:23:00 <notovny>	You can find fine recipies for chutney in the bazzaars, but alas, they are never used, because Imaginistan has no Aggies.
Aug 28 20:24:01 *	jfade waits for Pescado to finish the update.
Aug 28 20:24:04 <Assmitten>	I can sell them one cheap.
Aug 28 20:24:05 <jfade>	Let me know when you do
