19:05:59 <Rubidium> hmm, depending on your definition of daylength maybe ;) 19:06:49 <Eddi|zuHause> well, assuming vehicle movement stays by ticks, then the time a vehicle needs from one edge to the other (in days) shrinks 19:07:15 <Eddi|zuHause> so, also the distance between the edges shrinks 19:08:50 <Eddi|zuHause> so an 8192^2 map with daylength 32 has the same size as a 256^2 map with daylength 1 19:08:52 *** sim-al2 [~sim-al2@dns25-175.cbu.edu] has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds] 19:09:31 <Eddi|zuHause> does that make any sense?

19:30:14 <Eddi|zuHause> teachers here typically have some leeway of rounding between .4 and .6 19:30:27 <Rubidium> depending on the subject and education level the amount you need to know to pass differs (which annoyed me somewhat) 19:30:57 <Eddi|zuHause> so in that range they can either give the lower or higher grade 19:31:18 <Rubidium> frosch123: because apparantly knowing 0% for 3 tests and then 100% for 1 is deemed worse than knowing 50% for 3 tests and 100% for 1 test 19:31:30 <Eddi|zuHause> teachers often give the lower grade on the half-year report, and the higher on the end-year report 19:33:18 <Rubidium> in any case... where I went to school for maths you got some points if you got things partially right and you needed 50% right for a passing grade, whereas you needed 80% right and misspelling a single word wrong in an answer gave you no points for that answer for some of the languages... (wonder why I was annoyed by that) 19:33:24 <Eddi|zuHause> also, if too many people fail a test, teachers can adjust the scale, so the average grade gets higher 19:35:34 <Eddi|zuHause> languages were a nightmare... you could write the most beautiful essay of all times, but if spelling is atrocious (you get a 6 in spelling quite easily), then the total grade can at best be a 4 19:36:06 <Eddi|zuHause> although, this was usually the other way around for me, very little spelling mistakes, but terrible content :p 19:41:44 <Eddi|zuHause> but, how did we get here from mars? 19:43:31 <Rubidium> some weird links my brain occasionally makes 19:46:23 *** Arveen [~Arveen@ip-95-223-75-47.hsi16.unitymediagroup.de] has quit [] 19:46:42 *** DDR [~David@S0106001f16aa47bc.vc.shawcable.net] has joined #openttd 19:48:55 *** Hiddenfunstuff [~Geth@a392.ip16.netikka.fi] has quit [Quit: HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- Wibbly Wobbly IRC] 20:05:03 <andythenorth> how big is cat? 20:05:34 <frosch123> depends whether it is blue 20:06:25 <andythenorth> how big is blue cat? 20:06:42 <wito> I dunno.
