Hey, everyone!

So far, is mittlewerk the only clue we have?

Has anyone figured out a way to slow down the time in the test? (Slow or suspend the timer) Surprised

Ok, maybe I am slow....I worked out all the math problems by hand. Pretty sure I got most of them all correct. But the test took me exactly 20 minutes. I got Helios. All of the rest of the questions/answers were easy peasy.

So all you math whizzes out there....here is the one I wasn't sure of:

7 inputers get 1001 pieces entered in 429 minutes. How many will 3 inputers get in 1001 minutes?

I HATE MATH.

When I calculated it out by hand, I got something close to 1000, so I answered 1001. I don't have a calculator, so this one sucked. Can any of you left brainers give me the correct answer?

1001 it is.

7 inputers doing 1001 in 429 minutes means 143 per inputer in 429 minutes, or 1 every 3 minutes per inputer. In 1001 minutes, that's 333 1/3 per inputer, so for 3 inputers that equates (mathematically, at least) 1001 in total (but effectively, 998 complete with 3 1/3 parts Razz

)

Cheated, 2:43 on time. Ganymede/Steropes/Antaeus/Crius. Helios on the no-cheat account.

As much as I enjoy some of these tests, I do wish something unexpectedly exciting would happen soonish. Or maybe I'm asking for too much? ^^; Ah well *lurks and waits*
