  • The end is nigh OR odd numbers on Apolyton AC-Forums

    11:00PM,
    It twas late at night (actually only 11:00pm, still plenty of time for one more turn, right?)

    After a session at Civ3-general I, for some reason went to the AC section of the Apolyton CS Forums page, and noticed something odd.
    The Number of posts in AC-Creation was 2222 exactly.
    Equally strange, the number of posts in AC-Multiplaying was 33330.
    Chuckling to myself, I thought "Gee, all we need now is a 666"
    The number of threads in AC-Multiplaying was 666!!
    Egad! (so I took a screenshot of the page, and a HTML snapshot, resisting the urge to add 3 uselss posts to AC-Fiction)

    Is there some great disturbance in the force!
    What would happen if another 3 posts appear on AC-Multiplaying before any in AC-Creation!
    Is this the second coming of planetmind! (or forewarning of the progies invasion of earth!)
    Or should I just be restrained in a straight-jacket so I cant post on apolyton late at night!

    edit: Minor changes to format and punctuation.

        At approximately 11:30 NewZealand time the 33333rd post happened.

        However, nothing strange happened.

            apologize for my ignorance but what does 2222 and 33333 means? I know the number of the beast (666) from the bible but the other ones I don't have knowledge about.

            It's close to midnight and something evil's is lurking in the dark.

              2222 means 4 2's in a row.
              33333 means 5 3's in a row

              It's just an unusual conicidence.
              And me being stupid

                  What about reaching a point in Smac where you have 666 energy creadits and it is MY 2222!?! Of course, it must be a curse that you have that little at that point...

                    Well some roots of 666 are:

                    333*2
                    222*3

                    and my personal favorite:

                    (__666 _)
                    (__2*3 _) -- 3
                    ------------------ = 1
                    3*2*3*2*3

                    which uses all the #'s, except for one 2. (222,33333,666 instead of 2222,33333,666)
