Pick a number between one and fifty
10-22-2014, 10:54 PM
ok but here's the twist this time ok:
you only get to pick one number, collectively, you have to decide as a team what the number is
debate amongst yourselves about which number between one and fifty is the most appropriate choice
make it count

How about we compromise and pick 37 - which is both a prime number and one of the 30s. Also it is an exciting number with many awards and fun facts about it.

I question the veracity of your claims that 37 is "exciting". Do you have any real proof?

It's the first irregular prime, the first non-supersingular prime, and a star number. It's also the normal temperature of the human body (in Celsius), and the number of Great Nats worshipped in Burma!
These are only some of the fun facts you might find out about 37 if you only cared to look.

In 37 minutes you have shown yourself unable to refute me I take this as further evidence that my number is the number for the job.
Also this post has exactly 37 words in it. It's uncanny!

i've never liked 29. its uh... an obscure deaf slang term for mentally challenged people*, and now it carries negative connotations for me that shouldnt even be there but they are.
*[if you must know, 29 has the same hand shapes as LF which means low-functioning, which is unfortunately used as an insult in some deaf circles.]

That's a pretty great argument. You've convinced me; I'm now all for 37.

I object to the tyranny of being told I must conform to the choices of my peers! What if I want to pick a number that's different from everyone else's number?
Is that so wrong?
IS IT?

I'm going to pick two. Mainly because it's the lowest integer that's between one and fifty. One does not count.

I propose both three and seven, but not either of them singularly, and not both of them as one number.

I motion that we pick 51 in protest.
I'm not sure just what we'd be protesting.

Back somewhere between 3rd and 6th grade, I decided that my favorite number would be 47, forever, and to this day (15th grade) I have seen no reason to change that. 47 for me.
