FoliFF Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) I think people are confusing billion with million. Remember folks billion has 9 zeros while million are 6 zeroes. Currently our overall score is 22,479,194,520 that is 220 million which means we are 78 million short to the first overal score of 1 billion to get 3 free orbs.

What. 22,479,194,520 is 22 billion and almost half a billion more. We've fulfilled the most recent goal of 10 billion for 20 orbs twice. Hell, you yourself correctly stated that a billion has nine zeroes and a million has six. Edited March 10, 2017 by Vaximillian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fail math since I can't count the zeros good enough and mistake them with my own language that uses different words for these big numbers :( This what happen when you have sleep deprivation, you just embarrass yourself so hard.

Kiran Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Every time Ephraim starts to pull further ahead, Chrom comes bounding back at his heels at the next update. The difference is now 1.36 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently we have an emergency flag stockpile? Also, I suspect that western Chrom fans are staying up overnight just to play this, it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

IMCasual Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 On Lucina and Eirika side, we finally doubled her. Lucina at 4.8 billions vs Eirika at 2.4 billions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because in most languages there is another number between Million and Billion called Miljard. aka 1 with 9 0's is Miljard and a 1 with 12 0's is billion. But for the orbs we need the english billion which has 9 0's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, technically there is, but it's treated as a synonym to milliard and never used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you are mentioning monks/bishops you can't have meant Marcia, but Maria has nothing to do with Ike and Tellius, or am I just dumb and missing something? I did mean Marcia, pardon. I meant that I liked Marcia on her own merits and Rhys due my fondness for his class in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am very curious now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales; this is all pretty off-topic though. Returning to the topic: I've now switched to using Sharena in the gauntlet battles. Eirika, whom I used earlier today, wouldn't cui it against male Robins and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: And my rank has dropped from top 50 yesterday to mid 300's today, which means we are indeed burning flags.

Raven Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 They should just make it so that we get 1 orb per 1 billion points reached. 50 orbs at 50 billion. Ninty pls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even after the "Hacker Disaster" I still have some flags left. And it's not a little amount either so, yeah, we do have an emergency flag stockpile. @Raven that would be pretty epic.

Good luck team Ephraim, hope we don't lose the lead again like yesterday. Edit: wait, we just lost the lead again.

Thany Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Seems whoever has emergincy flags left should use their flags now and get back ahead of chrom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maymeimai Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Aaaaaand Chrom is leading again, man, this is gonna give me a heart attack! I am so glad I got an Ephraim some hours ago, he is already lvl 40, so I am glad that I can give him more points, because I dont have any more flags lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This battle is endless! @ThanyThat, I will! But, I hope Chrom is not going to pull another surge a few couple of hours before the end of the round, that would be most nasty, Edited March 10, 2017 by Luxian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I can't help that I'm making Ephraim lose. The Gauntlet INSISTS that I don't be able to win anymore because for like the umpteenth damn time, it's giving me a lot of green units against a lot of red ones. This is seriously screwed up.

Just use someone blue instead. Your opponents are always at about the same level or less. One time I had a team of level 40s against a team of 39 33 and 36. Also your friends might be an issue too.
