Quite a simple game actually...yet so evil at the same time.

420 seconds? He was holding that damn button down for 7 minutes exactly? Damn!

420?! Damn!

I got to 2.6 :P

EDIT: Do you know how long you would have to play to even get up to 420 seconds? A freaking long time!

Now if someone can do the math and calculate his total play time...

I think its around 122hrs 35mins ish assuming it was right in one each time and it gos up in 0.2 second inclinations each time.

0.2seconds + 420seconds = 420.2s, there are (420/0.2)/2 pairs like this so the answer would be 1050x420.2

I believe it would be something to the tune of http://www.artofproblemsolving.com/Forum/latexrender/pictures/616e60b43c374e4ef310ee20c874eb8f.gif seconds.

The 2100 here is 420 seconds divided by 0.2.

EDIT: Wrote up a little BASIC program (turns out I'm REALLY rusty on my BASIC :P) and it looks like he was playing for over 5 days straight. Right...

Won't that give the same answer its just a different way of working it out?

Many appoligies however if i'm talking bollocks.

Yes it does give the same answer, but I didn't understand what you were saying :P

Fair enough, I rarely understand what I'm saying as well.

Oh god I hated BASIC. We did that in programming last year. Ugh. Then again it might have been the teacher, I didn't learn didly shit.

This year programmings a bit better; we're learning Turing and I've learned a fair amount.

On topic: I didn't get it :\

I was saying that if you add up the extremes so 420 and 0.2, then 0.4 and 439.8 etc you will get 1050 pairs of numbers which all add up to 420.2.

Summation Notation. Ah crap, we learned about this guy named Euler? who when he was little, created the formula for arithemtic equations. It works. Anyone...BASIC was fun.
