Exclamation Login Questions

Can we please stop having sums as login questions? I've never been any good at maths and the "what is the third letter in the following" type questions are much easier, mostly.

Another thing, to save me looking it up, not that I would know where to look, are "in-gal" attacks allowed this round? Just wondering.......

Oh yeah, looking at the Universe, it's obvious that farming has started already

Exclamation

I'm far too old to start learning maths so I now have a calculator sat next to my PC. It has big fat buttons so that I can use it when drunk.

About the farming thing, anybody who thinks my comment was anything other than a joke is, well, quite frankly, stupid, naive or both

I happen to be well aware that we are still under protection and therefore unable to launch our spaceships - I know because last night I tried to attack my Galactic Commander - he has plenty of asteroids to spare

No! Last night in #dyb, there were at least six active players! And I have a new friend lo SYMM

Besides, I'm trying really hard not to be a n00b this round, i have many asteroid, although i did initiate all metal ones to start with, which apparently, was a bad idea. I even went into my parallel irc channel (until they kicked me out )

Here's my login nightmare number 1.

"If your poker hand has all cards in the same suit, the hand is called a"

Excuse me for being an ignorant Finn and having never played Poker in English. I have no idea what I am supposed to answer to that one. Of course I answered it wrong.

Are you kidding?
The math I can do while I'm still half sleeping, however my eyes aren't quite tuned in that fast so There's about 50% chance I read the wrong letter when I've just gotten out of bed and then an additional 10% chance that I miss the letter on the keyboard and don't notice it. The numpad is harder to miss on so the math questions are easier for me, although still I have to read the damn things.

trivia is easier!

I wish they spaced the letters further apart on the write the 2nd letter questions.
