Joshi Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 How are you numbering the answers there. because I've got 1. Czech X. France 2. Ireland Why is france X and ireland 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMcCoy Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 ...maybe a "hidden" hint of some sorts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Or perhaps because it's a common and widely used way of numbering things? At least in this part of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMcCoy Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 o_O? ...you're numbering things "1., X., 2."? ...then you're living in a strange part of the world... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Jones Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 it's one times two, which, of course, gives the smallest prime number, you freaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Well, it's not exactly a numbering system, but it's used in gambling and when people bet on stuff, like soccer games. Therefore it's a very suitable way of numbering the answer options. See this not very good picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrMcCoy Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 ...it's still completely illogical... ...and in soccer, it's because the "X" is a draw, so it's now comparable, imho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireNaomi Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Well, when you look at it that way... I don't know. I'm not one to bet much on anything, so I don't know a thing about this stuff. The only things I DO know is that 1, X and 2 don't raise any confusion in me. Perhaps I should think more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guybrush122 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 perhaps france was once two, and now has been disqualified, due to lighting cigarettes in the non-smoking section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isak Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 sorry if there is any cofusion. its just that we use this 1,x, 2 system in sweden, didn't know you didnt do it in the rest of the world... but there is a secret behind the "x".... no theres not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshi Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Most numbering systems in the wirld go 1, 2, 3,, or a) b) c). I've never seen 1 x 2 before, it just doesn't make any senseto list answers that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fealiks Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 wtf?!?! o_O that's just WRONG. Is X a varified number or just a wierd numbering thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it's a wierd numbering thing . It's probably some stupid guy from scandinavia who invented it... Anyway, I changed to 1,2,3 now instead, so go to Broken Sword Zone and paricipate in our contest!

VampireNaomi Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Wow, such a big fuss over one damn numbering way.
