re: Roman Numerals

I assume those are in D-M-Y format because of the XXII in that first place.

So, would you mind telling why those dates are important?

re: Roman Numerals

I know basic numerals... I used to know them well, but i've forgotten them really, 'cuz it's been years since i've actually had to use them >>
Maybe i should brush up on my numerals skillz.

Vegeta! What does the scouter say about his power level?



It's over MMMMMMMMM!

....Yeah. Too bad the "Roman numerals" don't have any letters/symbols for 5000 or 10000 or above.

re: Roman Numerals

In my school, in Canada we didn't ever learn roman numerals. I know them because I had to teach myself. I don't see anything with roman numerals in my school, or house.

re: Roman Numerals

    I learned in Social Studies that for those, they used 10 over M for MMMMMMMMMM, etc.

    quote Deis
    XII - VIII - MCMLXXXVIII August 12th, 1988? I don't see how this is important.

    Other significant dates; XXII - X - MCMXCI October 22, 1941. I guess something in WWII.
    VI - IX - MCMILXXXVI September 6th, 19xx. IL is nonexistant. HOLY CRAP I PROVED DEIS WRONG ON SOMETHING?!? I ought to be dying within a few minutes.
    XII - VIII - MCMXIV August 12th, 1916. Again, I 'unno.

    [sub]In Roman, Z equaled "amazing item proving bullshit to be nonexistant in his prescence", so I guess it's that times fifty.

It's October 22, 1991. Oh, and it's special.

    Sounds really special.

re: Roman Numerals

I = 1
V = 5
X = 10
L = 50
C = 100 (I think?)
M = 1000 (pretty sure)...

What matters is figuring out how all of it goes together....Which isn't really THAT hard....If you know how the FF game format works, you should already know how it works, and just need to know L, C, and M (and their values)....

I believe I would write my birth year as:

MCMLXXXVI

Breaking it down it should be:

M = 1000
CM = 900
LXXX = 80
VI = 6
= 1986

Yes?
