Thanks guys.
Historical reference and general reference as well. Just search and the reference is in there somewhere it seems!

I do think that after 100+ pages the "intro" has been accomplished though! :D

EDIT: So glad LK posted #1,000 before mine went through as it seems like a special number! :) 1,000 more!

Sometimes it even teaches us how to translate numbers to letters because some of us studied letters more than numbers...

Still, agree with both of the above!! :)

There's nothing wrong with that, as long as there's something in FRONT of those 0's. Mine can't claim that... :lol:

Decimal points count for being in front of the zeros?

That depends on where you live but yes.

1.000.000 is 1 million here and 1 where you are.

Historical and now ...

I was taught that this is "one billion" when in school: 1,000,000,000,000
Which happens to coincide with what a billion is here, so I had to "change" real quick for FT's billion. :D
And I remember asking MadMike about it.

Code: Select all

Billion
↓   Hundred Million
↓   ↓   Million
↓   ↓   ↓   Thousand
↓   ↓   ↓   ↓
1,000,000,000,000.00 <- not here
1.000.000.000.000,00 <- here
FT World, commas or decimals depending on where you are:

Code: Select all

Billion
↓   Million
↓   ↓   Thousand
↓   ↓   ↓
1,000,000,000.00 <- not here
1.000.000.000,00 <- here
And a beggers billion: $000.000.000.1 or $,000,000,000,1 :mrgreen:

Not writing as much as I use to, getting involved in other threads in the forums and that's taking me away from game time as well. But, today I get up, and grab a couple of levels, and then shut down for breakfast, after that grab another level and:
B L I N K !
NO POWER!
GRRRRRRR!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Buenos Aires, Argentina!

Back and grinding ... getting closer to level 500. :mrgreen:

When a couple of my HL friends said at level 300 levels come faster, they were NOT kidding. Game changer!!!

Yesterday took my little archer out for a walk and helped a few new gamers. Also LK has a new friend a mage(10) to help. Nice guy and more importantly - willing to learn.

HL = High(er) Level ... well higher then me.
