It says "2+4*7=?" I exceeded my maximum number of registration attempts trying to figure this out. What's the answer supposed to be?

I miss the days of the little "x" for multiplication. Well, thanks. I'm going to try registering again.

LoLED SO HARD

What?

ISO · Post #7 (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 2:26 pm

It was the question you would be asked during registration. I was asked that same question, but I got it right.

I'm not sure why everyone is laughing...

ISO · Post #9 (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 3:28 pm

Two people are laughing someone at someone less capable than them. Happens all the time, not a big deal.

ISO · Post **#10** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 3:31 pm

There's nothing less capable about that.

ISO · Post **#11** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 3:41 pm

There's a lot "less capable" about someone who didn't know * is the symbol for multiplication.

It's different levels of math literacy. Again, the issue was resolved, not a big deal.

There's a reason we use that question. I don't think giving it away is the right idea.

Let me guess. Since this is more of an adult-friendly site, you're giving a question that would be harder for the little kids so we don't have to worry about the whining or complaining. Am I correct?

That and we are looking for a minimum level of intelligence (i.e., a level that is required to at least understand the basic concepts in mafia).

It was never used in my school, and that doesn't make me stupid. This isn't a math site.

ISO · Post **#18** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 8:16 pm

No one said you were stupid.

quadz was kind of hinting at it...

Anyway, I'm going to lock this now.

ISO · Post **#20** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 8:52 pm

Oh, well apparently I can't, since I made it before creating an account. Can a mod do it?

ISO · Post **#21** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 8:56 pm

Quadz was talking about why the test was required.

ISO · Post **#22** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 9:02 pm

But it does kind of imply that someone who couldn't figure it out was therefore not smart.

ISO · Post **#23** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 9:04 pm

That's true.

ISO · Post **#24** (ISO) » Mon Jun 18, 2012 9:22 pm

It is a simple maths problem.
