I would have posted it, but it would have taken too long to get the amount of digits that I was going to have. I don't remember how many digits there were.

How are you feeling?


First: True odds are the actuall odds that you will roll the dice and have it come up as that.

Second: I am feeling fine. This thread is fun to handle.

Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1898, I think. That's the only one I know of, without using a web search.

Ok, here is a TFC-related question that Ive always wondered about....

How many flames does it take for a Pyro to kill an HW (ONLY FLAMES...each one of those poorly pixelated fireballs that come out one per cell)

That would be like finding out how many licks it will take to get to the center of a tootsie pop. While you are hitting them with flames they are taking damage from getting on fire most likely. Unless you have a heavy that doesn't move and you can hit him one shot at a time.

I would have to say a lot then.

I will take care of this question as soon as I sort out all of the facts I wish to disclose. No one else try to answer this question until I get my response up.

Borg,

Very good on the craps answer, I'm proud of ya!

Now a little harder gaming question.....

What is the difference between American Roulette and Europian Roulette?


Now the tough one:

In American Roulette, all bet payoffs are calculated by the same formula except for one. Which bet is it?



And total extra credit:

In Roulette, what was the "snake bet"? (No longer seen, at least in America)

It takes three licks to get to the center of a Toostie Roll lollipop. Everyone knows that!

That question can be interpeted in numerous ways. I will tell one long story on the origins of the borg (that I know of and I don't know the whole story).

The first official interaction between the federation and the borg occurred during the episode "Q Who?". Some have said that in one of the episodes in the orginal series, there was an episode where a whole colony was destroyed, which seemed like the borg. This could be considered the first of the borg. I also believe in the episode "Q Who?" they brought up this poing. In the book Star Trek: The Return, it was stated that the borg had reconfigured Viger (can't remember the correct spelling) and that that was the first time the borg were encountered, which would place it back to the tiem of the Motion Picture. Others could say that the borg were first encountered before warp drive was really used. This would be in Star Trek: First Contact. I am going to end there with my story. If this brings up any more questions please ask.

American roulette has 38 spots on the wheel and European has 37.
Second: My guess would be 00.

Last one: no clue.

Keep the questions coming. I haven't had enough trivia yet. Just follow the little guidelines.

The answer would be 15 flames to kill an HW. This came according to ROOF and Killer on a test they did. Here are the results...
