You are a potato. Being a potato, it is rather odd that you realize this.

Corai

C + O + R + A + I

2+1+2+1+1=7

Corai's vote is worth seven. How about Kobold?

K + O + B + O + L + D
2+1+2+1+2+2=9

Therefore, CORAI (7), who is a KOBOLD (9), has a vote of 8 ((7+9)/2).

Grow.

Title: Re: You are a potato.
Post by: Thecard on January 01, 2013, 04:12:54 am
No.  You're looking at it all wrong, my Kobold friend.

A Kobold is half of a person, so it's 1/2.
An Elf is half of a Kobold, and one fourth of a person. 1/4.

Since you said ElfCorai, and not Elf+Corai, you are looking for a product, not a sum.

.5•.25=.125
You are one-eighth of a vote.  If you're modifying a +4, you just made it a +.5.
You've just devalued that plan.

Your number system also needs work.  I'm not sure why you decided to use Corai+Kobold, though.  If Corai is a Kobold, then it shouldn't be added to Kobold.  That's like adding a penis to a man.
But if your numbers are accurate, Kobold cannot be inside of Corai, as Corai has a lower value and therefore cannot hold Kobold without bursting like a balloon is apt to do.


I am sorry, but mathematics rejects your 'quaint' theory and is currently mocking you while drinking tea with the Easter Bunny.
Don't laugh, they do this every Tuesday.  Good chums, them.

Tell me, how often do you post in the Homestuck thread?
Title: Re: You are a potato.
Post by: Thecard on January 01, 2013, 04:17:06 am
As I'm the last post before yours, I'll assume you're talking to me (perhaps incorrectly) and answer with a firm "never been."

I'm also going to assume this has to do with his system of assigning numerical values to his name?

Tell me, am I correct on both fronts?
Title: Re: You are a potato.
Post by: Slayerhero90 on January 01, 2013, 04:27:17 am
It involves a complex inventory system that places things into one of ten slots, depending on the numerical values of the letters involved. Consonants count as a two while vowels are a one. Or you could switch it around by modifying the settings on the back of the modus. And then it's never really mentioned again.

For example, BOX (2+1+2) would be five.

Corai is a seven and kobold is a nine. Both are valid definitions of the person posting. I merely averaged the two definitions.
Let's add another definition.
Bay12er.
2+1+2+1+2(Assume numbers are themselves)+1+2.
11, which becomes 1 to fit with the 1-10.
So Corai's vote becomes (1+7+8)/3, 16/3, 5 (.33 is rounded down).

I already explained it.
(Person involved)
His definitions so far are these:
Corai,
Kobold,
Bay12er.

I'm not adding Kobold to Corai, I'm adding Kobold and Corai to person.

What, he has modifiers to his person?  Bit his name isn't a modifier, it is his person.  A name isn't really an adjective or other such descriptor.  He just is his name.
Title: Re: You are a potato.

Identifier, sure.  Descriptor, Hell-fuckin-naw.  I could call my dog "Cat" but that don't make her feline.
If she was a cat, then yeah, she'd be feline.
A name does not describe something, though.  My mother is the same, even after taking my father's name.

You're confusing "identify" and "describe."

The man sitting at his breakfast table thought he heard something odd from the refrigerator, but brushed the thought aside as a noise from one of his cats. Not a second after this, a formless, off-white vapor tasting and smelling shockingly like potatoes invaded his lungs, killing him nearly instantly. What is left of him has now been converted into vegetable matter.

You could call your dog Cat and it wouldn't be a cat, but Cat would still be one of its descriptions, as would dog.
So far, we've got:
Cat,
and dog
for your dog's descriptions.

But, to prove description-ness, you would answer these two questions similarly:

What is his name?
What is his eye color?
His name is Nathaniel.
His eye color is blue.

Blue is an adjective, is it not?
I'm not saying that a name isn't also an identifier, because blue is already an esablished adjective. But you can identify someone by their blue eyes, right?

Yes, form potatoman.

Also: the problem here is that I am not a Homestuck fan.  I just don't enjoy it.  You're applying something I don't really understand or enjoy to mathematics.
But I know and love English, and a name is not a descriptor.  It is an identifier, and is used when identifying a subject, but "a rose by any other name smells just as sweet."  Sweet describes the flower, while rose does not.



Side note, as it almost caused a severe fucking tragedy.  There are a few actual words spellcheck does not like, though it admits they are words.  It corrects "rose" as "Ross" for some weird reason.  It also refuses to let me type "were" in the context of the past participle of "was" in favor of "we're" no matter what.
Argh.
