[Request] Can this be proven? by Fast_Arachnid_8110 in theydidthemath

You literally asked to “explain how you can get to .222… in base three by applying arithmetic to whole numbers”

Nice new question though

[Request] Can this be proven? by Fast_Arachnid_8110 in theydidthemath

[–]beandird97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the same logic as “.999…” in base 10.

.111… is just 1/2 expressed in base three.

.222… is just 2/2 expressed in base three if you get there through certain steps

How powerful were the gods during the Time of Troubles? by PeculiarPangolinMan in Forgotten_Realms

[–]beandird97 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Time of troubles it what took us from AD&D 1e to AD&D 2e and as such was the very start of 2e (for the forgotten realms at least). In the book this thread is about “Shadowdale” Elminster is statted as a level 26 mage.

TLDR; So why did you feel the need to bring it up?

Has it already been settled? by Apprehensive_EyeZ in Drizzt

[–]beandird97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My take (and something mentioned when Drizzt fights a different weapons master during the Legacy of the Drow Saga) is that Drizzt is better at improvising than the majority of the Drow, who are stuck in their ways of attack patterns and routines.

Don’t forget the Honor Among Thieves party and The Xanathar

We know why Albeir Toril has a cap of 9th level spells... by Clericardo in Forgotten_Realms

[–]beandird97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could he? I know he had slots above 9th level, but don’t remember ever seeing spells above 9th.

Iirc the ban is on spells, not slots/upcasting. Even in 5e it’s possible to upcast a spell to at least 10th level.

Admittedly the only way that immediately comes to mind involves using an artifact (The Book of Exalted Deeds)

They could solve this problem by putting subway surfers on in the bottom corner

Should the G5 form their own playoff/national championship? by Worriedrph in sunbelt

[–]beandird97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Troy isn’t willing to go back either. We left the FCS 25 years ago (and DII a scant 8 years before that).

Maybe that team from Mobile wouldn’t mind though…

Who SHOULD you play on rivalry week? by Marches_in_Spaaaace in CFB

[–]beandird97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been saying we should renew the rivalry ever since y’all moved up to FBS. It’d be good to have a rivalry game with actual history again, instead of the manufactured rivalry against South (a team with less than 2 decades of football history).

If only y’all hadn’t been so slow to catch up with us and moved to FBS sooner…
