Why is Martin's perfect test score technically incorrect? Tests that measure intelligence quotients are inherently unreliable at measuring intelligence by their very nature, and only well trained psychologists may be able to offer a "correct" evaluation. Indeed, a person may be highly intelligent yet have some other difficulty in answering in the form presented. Martin's perfect score means nothing more than the fact that his knowledge and ability to answer the test's questions exceeded the test's ability to measure. Now, as far as intelligence goes, his speech is simply the work of the writers also attempting to confuse the listener, which must have been surprisingly effective. <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><br><br><i>7.

Anyone on #2, even Moderators and Admins? <br>The math problem itself is invalad, why?<br><br>I SERIOUSLY think one of the Moderators is holding back. I'll give it to all the moderators if they IM me the answer. I've had 2 other friends in the past check the sequence and they came up with the same reason. I also asked a whole forum of people, (Most of whom are O&M readers) and they found the answer. If any of them are here, they should give the answer.<br><br>As for #4 you have to look all the way in another episode for the full answer, not just the What If Episode. The "plausibility factor" is EXTREMELY high there.<br><br>As for #6, the moonstone type is "dark moonstones" see if anyone can answer the rest of the question (AND NO CHEATING WITH FAQs) I actually had a debate with someone about the existance of Dark Moonstones being hinted to in the game. He beat the game all the way through with everything and didn't remember the point where they are directly mentioned.

OK, times up. Answers to unanswered questions.<br><br>2. On Bart the Genius, in addition to the stated remark, there is an additional reason that was the one I wanted. The entire math problem was invalad because it stated at the beginning there were an equal number of passengers in each car, and the number of passengers at one point was not divisable by the number of cars in the train. You can't have a fractional number of people. This was the exact point where Bart freaked out, because he though he had screwed up somewhere. This is formally called integer error, where a number is declaired an exact integer, and a calculation turns out to be a fraction. Many compound computer bugs come from this type of error. If anyone wants the entire calculations to the point, I'll show you.<br><br>3. On Witch Hunter Robin the computers use a Possix OS (Any Unix variant) You can tell by the style of command prompt on the screen, and the style of Windowing. Specifically, they were integrated systems with external fiberchanel drives, and fiberchanel networking. Enough to make any serious computer geek druel with excitement.<br><br>4. In that Futurama sub-episode (what if episodes are 3 part episodes) A rip in space time occured because Fry wasn't frozen in the senerio produced from the Professor's what if machine. In a later episode, Fry saves the universe from being colapsed by space brains who want to make their gathered information more valuable.<br><br>5. It is the Upside Down Island, a discovery you find in one of the areas near the Dark rift.<br><br>8. The cartoon Good Will towards men, was a peace promoting cartoon where animals of the earth had taken up civilization after humans destroyed each other. It was quite sad, and yet somehow hopeful. Arguably something people should watch this year. I hope Cartoon Network airs it again, considering the curent politcal climate they might choose not to. It was initially writen after WWI, but production delays due to the depression ironically caused it to be released immediately after the start of WWII. If they have the same Toon Heads Christmas Special on Cartoon Network this year, it should be in there, unless it gets blacklisted by political censors.<br><br>--Ammendum<br>Surprisingly enough the toon heads site has been pulled, even though numberous sites for shows that haven't been on for a longer time are still on (such as SD Gundam) It just happens that the site had a video of that particular cartoon. The cartoon happens to mention the bible as saying "Thou shall not kill" as one of their reasons of stating that humans were misguided and not reading their own phillosophies. An arguement also stated against bush's "God told me to invade Iraq" statement durring the election campaign. Numberous other anti-war cartoons also had videos on the site. Strange that they haven't pulled Gundam Wing or Rorouni Kenshin.
