I'm a different number now.

Happy birthday?

Method of Madness · « **Reply #203 on:** 01 May 2013, 21:30 »

Happy birthday! Wait, shit, too late. Well, happy belated.

So 55 Questionables responded to the age poll. I wonder what proportion of active members that is. After a 10-hour drive and three beers, I can't think of a way to figure that out.

The current poll is skewing younger than the original poll; the current mean is 27.4 ± 12.7. The median age is 23.5. The bimodality of the distribution is less noticeable this time, though there does appear to be a secondary peak in the 40s. If I split the distribution the same way as before, I get two modes, one with a mean at 22.2 ± 4, and another with its mean at 50.7 ± 11.9.

And that's your overanalysis for today.

Oh, and we mean "as of your most recent birthday, as you vote in this poll"

But-but-but my birthday is in a couple of weeks

20 trips around the sun now, my 21st is almost complete!

Method of Madness · « **Reply #209 on:** 23 Aug 2013, 13:16 »

My birthday is on Monday! But my vote doesn't change then.

...which is also my 20th wedding anniversary (in this wedding - my first lasted 22 years, so we catch up soon).

Method of Madness · « **Reply #211 on:** 23 Aug 2013, 21:15 »

Mazel tov. I hope I get married someday, and I hope that marriage lasts a long time.

Stybar · « **Reply #212 on:** 23 Aug 2013, 22:57 »

You have my best wishes in advance!

I'm not too sure about marriage just yet, maybe after a couple of years.

Where's the "older than 20, less than 100" option?

ankhtahr · « **Reply #214 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 07:06 »

Hm, I guess I would need to change my vote today. Just imagine that one of the 17/18 votes is now a 19/20 vote!

Method of Madness · « **Reply #215 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 11:32 »

There's an option to change your vote! Click "remove vote", and then vote again.

ankhtahr · « **Reply #216 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 11:44 »

Huh. Never noticed it.

pwhodges · « **Reply #217 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 12:16 »

That's because I enabled it after seeing your message (and then updated my entry).

celticgeek · « **Reply #218 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 13:39 »

Hmmm... I will have to update my age in a little while.

Redball · « **Reply #219 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 14:01 »

Celtic, we should be downdating our age, not updating it. But I think the forum software takes care of it.

bhtooefr · « **Reply #220 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 14:02 »

Not in the poll, just in your user profile.

Redball · « **Reply #221 on:** 13 Sep 2013, 14:04 »

Oops. I forgot how this thread began. First thing to go, a friend told me years ago. Or is it the second? I forget.

The profile doesn't actually contain age, of course, but DOB.

~I am eighteen going on nineteen~

I'm pretty glad to see the lack of under 13 year old children around here. They should be playing sports or pokemon or something

Method of Madness · « **Reply #226 on:** 07 Nov 2013, 18:25 »

If you weren't born when Pokemon Red/Blue came out you are too young for Pokemon.

cesium133 · « **Reply #227 on:** 07 Nov 2013, 19:42 »

High school kids these days were born after Pokemon Red/Blue was first released. My brain has melted.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #228 on:** 07 Nov 2013, 19:42 »

THEN THEY ARE TOO YOUNG FOR POKEMON.

BrusselSprouts · « **Reply #229 on:** 07 Nov 2013, 21:40 »

I think Pokemon is pretty universal in appeal. Well to anyone born from 1990 onwards or so, a lot of older people just don't GET Pokemon

Method of Madness · « **Reply #230 on:** 07 Nov 2013, 21:50 »

I was born in 1987 but I still think people born in 1990 are like...twelve.

I just moved from the 23-24 range to the 25-26 range this month.

Grognard · « **Reply #240 on:** 07 Mar 2014, 13:04 »

I think the forumite consensus is that I'm 42....

not correct, but I'm not gonna fix it.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #241 on:** 07 Mar 2014, 13:18 »

I'm 42 in base-6.

Loki · « **Reply #242 on:** 08 Mar 2014, 00:37 »

I cannot be 42 in any base

Thinking about it a bit more, you can only be 42 every four years (the first time being at 22, because you need at least base 5 in order to even have a 4). Unless you allow for non-natural bases, but that'd be weird.

Method of Madness · « **Reply #243 on:** 08 Mar 2014, 01:10 »

Yep! I noticed that before when I realized that I was 42 in base-6, but didn't feel like typing out that explanation on my phone

There is no maximum age to be 42 though.

Quote from: Taylor Swift

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 42 (in base-5).

I won't pretend to know what non-natural bases are.

techkid · « **Reply #244 on:** 08 Mar 2014, 03:04 »

I'm currently 42 in base-7. At least for 3 more months...

pwhodges · « **Reply #245 on:** 08 Mar 2014, 03:39 »

Last year I was 42 in good honest hex.

My dad is now. (He and I are ten 42 cycles apart.)

Schwungrad · « **Reply #249 on:** 10 Mar 2014, 02:41 »

No 42 for me this year. The closest ones are 43₆ and 39₇. But I prefer to think of myself as 1000₃. Being a round age is always nice. Now thinking about it, I realize that come this summer, my age in any sufficiently large base system will be the first letter of my name

THESE FORUMS NOW CLOSED (read only)

Poll

So - When were you born? (Last one - Birth year Group, but same five-year groupings)
