... Or like that:

π=3.141592653589793238462643383279502884197169399375105820...

I have too much free time (sic)

Pi day is coming up, we'd better be ready for it.

What about doing a special thread for 3/14?

You know, like "recite pi decimale after decimale", it starts with the author putting "3.1", then next user posts "4", next post is "1", then "5", then "9", then "2"... It would be nice to indicate how to get the number of the next decimale to post (e.g next decimal is the 25*number of pages + number of posts), or whatever that could indicate which decimale we're on. I imagine the posts looking like:

Quote

(first post of the thread)

RECITE π DECIMAL AFTER DECIMALE

/** blah blah blah rules **/

I'll start. DC is for "Decimal Counter", you MUST include it so the next user knows which ecimal to put after. The deciml MUST also be correct of course.

DC 1

3.1

Quote

(next user)

DC 2

3.14

Quote

(next user)

DC 3

..141

Quote

(next user)

DC 4

...415

Quote

(next user)

DC 5

..159

and so on.

What do you think of it?

Thread active from GMT 12:00 am 3/14 to GMT 12:00 am 3/15?

We can ask a mod to close the thread at 12:00 GMT 3/15 if needed.

I would say during the entire timespan where it is 3/14 on any part of the planet - BUT you can only post if it is 3/14 where you are.

It would be a bit difficult, but it's a good idea. We have to find a code in the forums to make the thread closed only if you aren't on 3/14.

Also you're a nerd when you use a profile picture like mine.

When you hear about a European city on TV or whatever, and go "Hey, I've been there in ETS2!"

When you capitalize your Google searches (I don't, but it seems pretty nerdy)

When you want the writing on your birthday cake to be in German

When you are considering learning Icelandic, but are not really planning on ever going to Iceland

When you have built nothing but cranes, helicopters, and trucks for probably a little less than a year in a SPACEFLIGHT simulator :/
