Hey you guys!
I've been playing a whole lot of FTW! (For the Win!) on AoPS (Art of Problem Solving). For those who don't know what it is, it's a real-time competition where you solve problems and try to collect the most amount of points out of all of the people who are playing.
I've been playing in particular with Sharky and Trevor B., which has been a lot of fun. But I was thinking, if you guys are interested, you can schedule a game with some people on this discussion. If you want to be part, just subscribe to the discussion, and whenever somebody wants to play a match with some familiar faces (well, people), they'll leave a comment and you're off!
It's really competitive, and I'll work on getting a date set for a BUNCH of people from Brilliant to play all at once. If you guys have a preference for when we should do it, comment below. Otherwise, you can @mention somebody and challenge them to a game of FTW!
Enjoy, and don't forget to like and reshare! :D

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

AoPS stands for Art of Problem Solving. It is a really cool site. Link is http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/
If you want only Brilliantics to play, just set the password as "Brilliant" or some other thing (as long as you tell other Brilliantics what it is).

Is Trevor B. Iamteehee? he said "banana" once... :P
Log in to reply
No, he's Eridan. But I've seen lameteehee all over the place. :D
Please explain the association between me and bananas, other than the fact that my dog is obsessed with them (which I think I've said before).
The only food related question I can remember was the one I released yesterday about Attack on Titan and the Riemann zeta function.
My actual account name is Eridan.

You said "Banana" on the reshares post (171 reshares) by finn. Iamteehee is famed for banana.

@Daniel Liu I can't talk yet. 20 games to go.
No he most likely isn't. He didn't have an AoPS account when I asked back a while ago.

I was playing yesterday (and my rating went up 100 to the mid 1400s, somehow) and someone thought I was a person who had gotten a really high rating and was using a second account. That was funny. I'm finally able to chat now, though.
Maybe I should have done Mathcounts when I was young enough to...
It's Eridan.

just saying i am in a really boring art class where we are required to draw our hands without looking at our drawing so i am not that concentrated in my games
Log in to reply
Epic!
Friended you.
why can't I do any comments other than Hello, game anyone? ??
Log in to reply
You have to play 30 games before you are free to comment. I've played 14 (I started Friday) and it's really annoying, but I guess I'll just have to wait.
Log in to reply
Ok, I feel kinda sorry for my opponents that I can't chat anything haha...
Is there anyone here jisawesome?
I'm HYP135peppers on AoPS. I don't go on FTW that often, but I am starting to go on a little more often now that I have a little more free time on me.

Yep. I saw on your siggy "hayyyy reached 1000 followers on brilliant.org" and I clicked on the link following it and was like WHAT. Before I did this, I had no idea that there was a connection between the amazingly smart Daniel Liu on Brilliant to the amazingly smart bobthesmartypants on AoPS. Anyways glhf at nats :)
Hi HYP
Whats your username Finn? Mine's poweroftwo
Log in to reply
Mine's SHARKYKESA. BTW, since you have computers in Middle Earth, I suppose you also have websites and sonic screwdrivers?
Log in to reply
Websites, yes. Sonic screwdrivers, I don't think Gandalf has thought of yet.
(sorry if it isn't my place to say this, but I'm pretty sure that finn's username is FINNN)
Log in to reply
Yes it is.
Is it free?. Also are any Indians interested as time zones vary
Log in to reply
There are lots (i mean LOTS)
I'm AnonymousBunny. Although I'm not online in AoPS most of the time, you can add me, I'll play if I have time.
I haven't activated my account yet :(

Log in to reply

Hey @Finn Hulse @Sharky Kesa, I'm going on in a minute, want to join?
Log in to reply
Yah. :D
Sorry, Trevor, I was asleep when you asked.
A little late to the party, but I'm ATP on AoPS :P
Log in to reply
Awesome! I'll look out for you. :D
I got flood muted for the second time
Log in to reply
Flood muted?
Flood muted?
Lol. I used to get flood muted all the time when I played FTW a lot.
For those of you who don't know, if you chat too much in a very short amount of time (like for example, typing 10 messages in 10 or less seconds), then you automatically cannot talk for a designated amount of time (not very long, though). If you want to see how it works, keep typing "Hi" and then pressing enter over and over again until it says in green letters something along the lines of "Sorry, you have been temporarily muted" or something like that (I forgot).
btw what is your username David Lee?
Log in to reply
No, his is like hwl0403 which I don't get. :O
