Fourth Round Discussion Thread

[Robo Gorilla]

Is the rearrangement of digits involved?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Are the measurements for one of the variables taken from the chapter the character appears in?

Robby already spoiled that so there's no point in answering it.

Or is it what anime episode they appear in?

Don't count on it.

Or is the value of the variable something else?

It is decidely so.

@Robo:

Is the rearrangement of digits involved?

Don't count on it.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Well, I was trying to find out if I was on the right track :p

Is Garp's value based on his cover story appearance?

or his first proper appearance in the series?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Is Garp's value based on his cover story appearance?

Don't count on it.

or his first proper appearance in the series?

Reply hazy. Ask again later.

[Gizmo]

Was Norland's appearance based on his first appearance in the flashback?

Or was it during his storybook appearance?

[Ubiq]

@ultimateclima:

Don't count on it.

Or was it during his storybook appearance?

Outlook good.

[Gizmo]

Cool. That solves the negative issue.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Now to find the rest of the variable(s)

[Robo Gorilla]

is any variable used more than once?

are any variables squared?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

is any variable used more than once?

Outlook not so good.

are any variables squared?

Don't count on it.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Except for the variables already established in Round 3, are any additional variable brought in from prior rounds?

[Robo Gorilla]

are there at least 5 variables?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Except for the variables already established in Round 3, are any additional variable brought in from prior rounds?

As I see it, yes.

@Robo:

are there at least 5 variables?

Don't count on it.

[Robo Gorilla]

are there exactly 4 variables?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

are there exactly 4 variables?

As I see it, yes.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Do you consider the formula from Round 3 to be one variable?

Or would that be 2 variables?

[Robo Gorilla]

are there any sings other than addition and multiplication signs in the equation? (this oes not include the equals sign, it does include things like parentheses)

[C_uggs]

this topic has become the "topic of stats?
it would be better to talk about the tournament itself?

[Kitsune Inferno]

Are all of the variables integers?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Do you consider the formula from Round 3 to be one variable?

As I see it,yes.

Or would that be 2 variables?

Don't count on it.

@Robo:

Most likely.

@Kitsune_Inferno:

Are all of the variables integers?

As I see it, yes.

[Robo Gorilla]

School started back up just a couples days ago… what's an integer?

Can we call the variables W, X, Y and Z alphabetically relative to the order in which they appear in the equation?

[IceBorg]

@captain:

You are a smart guy, these numbers are making my head hurt.

[Fire-Fist]

do page numbers on which character appeared first matters?

do age/heigth of characters matter?

[Kitsune Inferno]

Are there seven or more terms in the equation?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

Reply hazy. Ask again later.

@Fire-Fist:

Don't count on it.

do age/heigth of characters matter?

Very doubtful.

Are there seven or more terms in the equation?

As I see it, yes.

[Robo Gorilla]

@Ubiq:

Reply hazy. Ask again later.

Was the question to wordy to understand?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

Was the question to wordy to understand?

Signs point to yes.

[Kitsune Inferno]

(a+b+c)+((d+e*f)/g)?

(a+b+c)+(d+(e*f)/g)?

[Robo Gorilla]

Can we refer to the 4 variables as W, X, Y and Z, W being the first variable to appear in the equation, X being the second, Y being the third and Z being the fourth?

[Sea]

@Robo:

Can we refer to the 4 variables as W, X, Y and Z, W being the first variable to appear in the equation and X being the second, Y being the third and Z being the fourth?

Sign point to yes.

[Hayama]

Are the votes from the prelim rounds being counted as part of the total?

[IceBorg]

@Kitsune:

(a+b+c)+((d+e*f)/g)?

Ok now I just don't get this.

What has this thread become? Shouldn't a different thread be made for this now. It would be easier for people.

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

(a+b+c)+((d+e*f)/g)?

(a+b+c)+(d+(e*f)/g)?

Very doubtful.

@Robo:

As I see it, yes.

@Hayama:

Don't count on it.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Okay, is there any division in the equation?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Okay, is there any division in the equation?

You may rely on it.

[Kitsune Inferno]

Okay, so…

W + (X + Y / Z ) ?

[Robo Gorilla]

@Robo:

are there exactly 4 variables?

@Ubiq:

As I see it, yes.

@Kitsune:

Are there seven or more terms in the equation?

@Ubiq:

As I see it, yes.

Aren't these contradictory to one another?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

Okay, so…

W + (X + Y / Z ) ?

Don't count on it.

@Robo:

Aren't these contradictory to one another?

My sources say no.

[Robo Gorilla]

is there more than one division sign in the equation?

[Kitsune Inferno]

Would you count the base part of the equation

(a + b + c) or (r3bounty + r4basebountyincrease)

as three terms and one variable?

Or two terms?

Just one?

[Sea]

4 variables and more than 7 terms. Lots of possible equations.

[Hayama]

Are any of the 4 variables used more than once?

[Robo Gorilla]

are there more than nonvariable numbers?

[Kitsune Inferno]

are there any coefficients in the equation?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

is there more than one division sign in the equation?

Not likely.

@Kitsune:

Would you count the base part of the equation

(a + b + c)

as three terms and one variable?

Outlook good.

@Hayama:

Very doubtful.

@Robo:

Reply hazy. Try again later.

@Kitsune:

are there any coefficients in the equation?

As I see it, yes.

[Kitsune Inferno]

So this means there are four terms and three variables making up the "Bonus" portion of the equation?

[Ubiq]

@Kitsune:

My sources say no.

[Robo Gorilla]

Are there more than 4 nonvariable numbers?

[Kitsune Inferno]

Are there more than six terms in the "bonus" portion of the equation?

[Ubiq]

@Robo:

As I see it, no.

@Kitsune:
