GM TIMELY FACTS

Why do we have 60 minutes in an hour?

The answer the interwebby thing gave: THE DIVISION of the hour into 60 minutes and of the minute into 60 seconds comes from the Babylonians who used a sexagesimal (counting in 60s) system for mathematics and astronomy. They derived their number system from the Sumerians who were using it as early as 3500 BC. The use of 12 subdivisions for day and night, with 60 for hours and minutes, turns out to be much more useful than (say) 10 and 100 if you want to avoid having to use complicated notations for parts of a day. Twelve is divisible by two, three, four, six and 12 itself - whereas 10 has only three divisers - whole numbers that divide it a whole number of times. Sixty has 12 divisers and because 60 = 5 x 12 it combines the advantages of both 10 and 12. In fact both 12 and 60 share the property that they have more divisers than any number smaller than themselves. This doesn't, of course, explain how this system spread throughout the world.
It's like the right hand of the GM said, but one handy information was left out: it's all because of the anatomy of the hand(s)! See, babylonians counted with their hands ... but in another system as us. They used the phalanx of each finger to count and since each finger has 3 phalanxes, that goes up to 12 per hand.

"Now wait a second, that would only go up to 24 if they used both hands", you might say, but they used the other hand to keep count how many times they counted up (like if the left hand was at 2 and the right at the seventh phalanx, it would've been 2x12 + 7, so 33).

And the thumb of the counting hand? Even if there are two phalanxes, it didn't count, since they used the thumb to 'mark' where they are, like a pointer. You can try it yourself, it's quite a nice and intuitive system.

Personally though, I ask myself, why thy didn't use this system with both hands ... they could've counted up to 144 with both hands that way ...

...then again, imagine there would be 144 seconds in a minute and 144 minutes in an hour ... how much time we could save!

Final Vote Count:
lfischl (5) KoalaAttack, Bonatogether, BK3K, TheFlyingBoat, Chaqa
Chaqa (1) lfischl

My random facts - How the hell did town blow this chance edition…
I seriously thought the scum team imploded with this phase right here… I thought town had the best chance to pull this win out if they took a second to analyze this…

When Bonatogether (Godfather) put the RB order in on lfischl, I seriously thought it was going to get him killed. Of the player base left, he is the only one who would possibly think to do this for the troll. Even Chaqa (VT) would have prevented him to do it because it could clear lfischl (VT btw). But Bona did not have a strong willed or experienced partner left - ghug and Eden were dead…

So when Koala (Goon) did his PM slip - saying “Vanilla Townie”, which none of you got btw, and then explicitly stated the right one for “Mafia Goon” - I thought it was all over…

But alas, as most towns do - you imploded and decided to kill lfischl, the game lurker, too late in the game.

Oh well - Eden wins MVP while he looks down from the grave.

lfischl Has Died! He was a Vanilla Town!
Mafia have won M78!

GAME HAS ENDED

Fischl doesn't seem like a towny about to lose a game on the block, you know.
I am back – looks like nothing earth shattering has transpired. FWIW, I agree with this – lfischl's earlier asking if anyone has questions for them just doesn't sound like a Townie who is about to lose a game by being MKed.
