Yeah, but 10 = 3.162277660172.

This isn't the 10 year anniversary though.

9th anniversaries aren't important at all.

They're still a multiple of 365 days.

But making a thread 3 months prior is silly.

Ten only has signifigance to our culture because we use an arbitrary base-10 number system, which is only the case because we have ten fingers/toes. I hereby declare that base six is the perfect base (first perfect number). Therefore, 9 is important in the same way 15 is important in base 10.

Traditionally, important anniversaries are 10, 25, 50.

But okay?

I get it but it's stupid odd. Not to be basist.

.. no, it's how it works. 10 is a completely arbitrary number in terms of "being special". The only special number I can think of is 0. If you want to, add primes and perfect numbers to the list.

I see your point, but it's traditional. It's also the first two-digit number I guess.

The next version 2005-02-23 12:00:00 (permalink)
For the next version I hope to have the following features:

    Complete Avatar Custimization (every part a different color, etc)
    Players spawn with hammer and spray can
    More inventory slots
    Jet pack particle effect
    Death effect
    Manual brick limit setting
    Stop bricks from being placed inside environment geomertry
    Require player to be at least somewhat near the bricks they are placing
    Improve jetpack force
    Optimize the bricks a little
    Limit number of bricks a player can place in one second (just enough to stop server crashing scripts)
    Ability to change the map through admin menu
That update took a lot of years to get..

Bug report: Change map button missing
