Math mind read
« on: February 24, 2011, 02:03:56 am »
PLEASE READ SPOILERS IN ORDER!!
Spoiler For 1:
Pick any integer between 1 and 10.
Spoiler For 2:
Now multiply that number by 9. You should now have a two digit number (unless you chose 1, in which your number is 1 digit). Find the sum of the two digits. eg. if you have 33, 3 + 3 = 6
Spoiler For 3:
Now subtract 5 from that number
Spoiler For 4:
Alright the next step is to match your number with the corresponding letter. eg. if you have 1, then your letter is A
Spoiler For 5:
The next step is to find a country that starts with that letter
Spoiler For 6:
Now take the last letter from your country and find an animal that starts with that letter
Spoiler For 7:
The last step is to find a color that starts with the last letter of your animal
Spoiler For 8:
You are thinking of an orange kangaroo in Denmark. Right  ;D If not either you messed up the instructions or you are too smart for this test.   <_<

Yeah, I know, mod 9.

Another way to exploit this digit-forcing trick is to reverse a two-digit number and subtract the smaller from the larger.

Already heard of the trick before, so this would be an invalid result, but:

I've never seen this before, but I thought of an azure impala from Djibouti O.o

EDIT: Djibouti and Denmark seem to be the only countries we can think of... Maybe a tabby cat from the Dominican Republic?

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
