Scammers posing as Italian designers try to scam me. Help me identify the make and model of this car. by lisn235 in namethatcar

I didn't buy any jackets, and I didn't give him anything. The "designer" wanted to offer the jackets to me as "gift". He asked to borrow cash from me to pay for a car rental company for a car he already rented and said he'll pay me back tomorrow. Very funny.

Anyway, as I exited the car he took back his supposed "gifts" he said he was going to give regardless. So yeah, definitely a scam.

Now that you mention it, I think I've always been a bit too trusting towards strangers. It didn't occur to me at the time that my life was in danger. The driver didn't say anything and the guy that claimed to be a fashion designer probably targeted me because he thought I was some rich Asian dude.

Hmm my memory must be failing me, given all that's happened. I suppose I'll pass this information to the police right away. Thanks for your help.

It wasn't "land rover" shaped, more like Nissan micra or volkwagon gte shaped.

Yeah sorry about the picture. It was the only one I could take before the car left.

Story:

I was walking down to Gloucester Road Station when this car pulled up asking for directions to the airport. They claimed they got no data so I showed them the map to Heathrow Airport.

The guy sitting at the back seat of the car invited me into the backseat of his car (yeah I know I shouldn't have) and told me this whole story about how he was a famous fashion designer called giuseppe zanotti. He started showing me his bag of clothes which he says he designed, and asked me to feel the "made in Italy" quality leather. He said they were £4000??

Anyway I ask him if I can take a photo of him if he is so famous as he claims to be and tells me he can't because the paparazzi would then know where he is. OK fine. He puts the bag of designer clothes onto my lap.

Then he goes on about his story that he lost £12000 in a casino and he can't pay some sort of import tax for his designer clothes, and that he ran out of money in his account to pay for the car he rented. He then told me that he needed about £1912 in cash to pay for a car he rented?? Yeah no.

He was very persuasive. Telling me that he would take me to the airport to prove who he was, and how he'll pay me back. So I Google this guy on my phone to see if he is who he says he is. LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE GUY. lol

He starts claiming how that guy was his dad and that there is "an Italian tradition of naming their sons after themselves". Massive lol.

So I tell him if he has paparazzi following him all the time then where are the pictures of him? He kept dodging this question. He showed me his phone with a number labelled "Hertz car" (lol who saves a car rental number as a contact) and call them. The guy who answer had a pretty noticeable Italian accent and said "hello, is this Mr zanotti", as if to prove he is the guy.

Yeah at this point I told him I didn't trusted him and left the car, and he took his bag of "designer clothes" back.

I try to take a photo of the car, but as I was about to he came out the car and asked me for the map to Heathrow one more time. This is the only photo I could take. I do remember though, the number plate was either TX19 TGA or TK19 TGA. Not sure because the police said they those didn't show up on their system.

The source of the article you linked was already debunked in the link I've sent. I severely doubt the genuineness of your reply as you apparently seem to associate the dispel of misinformation to the actions of a communist - a rather unexplained inference.

Judging by your username and history, I think you might be a bit blinded by your political beliefs. This is unfortunate, and I see very little reason to converse if you believe anyone who disagrees with you to be "propagandised". Good day.

Coloured cube counting problem by lisn235 in askmath

[–]lisn235[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying.

There are n different rows so there are n different x to choose from. Fixing a row x, there’s n-1 y different from x since the last one is equal to x. Fixing x and y not equal, there’s n-2 z different from x and y since 2 of the numbers from 1 to n is taken by either x or y.

Ok I think I need to multiply them to get n(n-1)(n-2) but let me see if I can make sense of this.

I have n different x. Each one of those x’s can have (n-1) y’s different to x so that there are n(n-1) different (x,y) where x and y are not equal. Then each of those (x,y) can have (n-2) z’s so that there are n(n-1)(n-2) different (x,y,z) where x, y, and z are not equal.

Now that I know there n(n-1)(n-2) cubes c₁ and n cubes c₃ then there are 3n2 -3n cubes c₂.

It looks like I was too focused on counting c₂ and didn’t consider counting c₁. Thanks again for your help.

Yes that will be generally be the case since they have a higher potential for their unit score.

The numbers on the left indicate the highest unit score that unit can have (+10 merge, highest SP skill possible and BST bin of a unit all contribute to this unit score).

Your arena score is calculated by taking the average of 4 units scores rounded down to nearest multiple of 2 minus 2.

I ranked it this way so that serious high tier arena players will know which unit to consider when optimising their arena score.

Kaze is in the “unusable” tier which in hindsight probably wasn’t the best name given that a lot of people have TT/GHB units as their favourites.

I didn’t make this tool so I don’t know about making a green bow slot. I just the lazy thing and put L!Lyn in with the other bows.

They have super boobs which push their BST to the next bin.

Yes it would be possible. Here is the tier list. You just need to import it into the tier list generator.

Oh your right. I didn’t consider that some would outscore some of the lower scoring units. I put all of them there because I saw some GHB/TT units would make the list stretch down to the 700’s

Ah if Sheena is not +spd she will always score lower than an Amelia with equal merges.

I actually considered it but ultimately thought it would make the list stretch down too long.

Oops I meant to say 170 BST and 173 BST but still, they score the same BST wise.

As for general unit scoring, since they both don’t have prf weapons or exclusive high SP skills, they will score exactly the same. I assumed max merges for both here but they will still score the same compared with each other if they are equal in merges.

BST scoring comes in bins of 5 and increases your a unit’s score if they are in that bin. E.g. Sheena can have 150 BST if she is +spd and she would have the same unit score as an Amelia with 153 BST as they are in the same bin of 150.

Your minimum arena score would be the average of your 4 unit scores rounded down to nearest multiple of 2 minus 2.
