Re: A Checker Math Problem
I'm going to take a guess and say that the answer is D, II & III My reasoning: 1.) A square checkerboard is divided into y rows of y squares each => The number of squares is a perfect square, or y squared 2.) The value of y is an even integer, such that 7 < y < 13 => y can be 8, 10, 12 in which ...

Re: A Checker Math Problem
Three variables usually means three equations. If you use the Gauss-Jordan Elimination with the help of a TI-89 1) X+Y+Z = 100 2) 24X + 40Y + 60Z = 3,728 3) 64X + 100Y + 144Z = 9,364 Matrix: 1 1 1 100 24 40 60 3,728 64 100 144 9,364 Reduces to: 1 0 0 47 0 1 0 29 0 0 1 96 This problem is very similar...

Re: How dare you Josh armstrong >>>???
Well, I don't endorse others opinion of me. If people want to think I'm God, then I can't help it. What I've noticed is that since you've joined the forum, everyone's post have become more belligerent. Everyone's arguing with each other, it makes for an unpleasant experience. I say we compromise, yo...

Re: How dare you Josh armstrong >>>???
You seem mentally unstable Danny. From your messages, I can only imagine that your a combination of ignorance & immaturity. Of course you're not going to quit this forum, what else are you going to do with your life. First of all, I never claimed to be anything, nor have I claimed to be any leve...

Re: Cool Shot... check it out
Old stuff Eric. Here's the shot in a game that occurs often, without having to go through the weak positioning :). This line is pretty common against people who play Souter on red and make the 7-11 move on move 27. Most people make the 23-18 move for an easy draw. 23-19 on is probably a bit more unu...

Re: How dare you Josh armstrong >>>???
P.S., You must have a lot of time on your hands to read all of the posts on Josh's names. I don't know if it's because your unpopular, introverted, or have some kind of mental disability. The defense rests. Your defense is predicated on the fact Danny's behavior is normal; ergo, any response to him...

Re: How dare you Josh armstrong >>>???
Danny, Well, I would just like to state that I make positive contributions to this website. I diligently update the checker problems as well as update the roster of champions. I think the roster is quite accurate and if you disagree then state the error and it will be corrected. I don't see what you...

Re: The Journey Continues (read more)
Eric has just told me that his wife will take care of many of the clerical duties involved with keeping up to date ratings. He said she will spearhead the project by standardizing everyone's names, even if it means calling 100s of people. She'll help ensure data integrity; thus, I have no doubt that...
