I think this is meant to suggest that the person in question does a lot of climbing and jumping off those ropes that encircle the ring :pJamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 6:52 pmONE QUESTION LEFT
I will give a clue: You are definitely on the right lines.
I don't feel I should have to, because I did not create that confusion, and I took steps to point out your (collective) error when I realised you had made it. However, I'll see how generous I'm feeling, after Question 20 is asked.
i feel like this is a little cheap. if i went to most people i know and started talking about someone who lived in the 1900s, they'd understand i was referring to the set of four-digit years that start with 19Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:45 pmI don't feel I should have to, because I did not create that confusion, and I took steps to point out your (collective) error when I realised you had made it.

If I said "the 1930's" what would you think I meant? A 100-year period starting in 1930 and ending on 31st December 2029?Bonatogether wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 8:52 pmi feel like this is a little cheap. if i went to most people i know and started talking about someone who lived in the 1900s, they'd understand i was referring to the set of four-digit years that start with 19Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 7:45 pmI don't feel I should have to, because I did not create that confusion, and I took steps to point out your (collective) error when I realised you had made it.

Don't be obtuse. 1930 is not divisible by 100.Jamiet99uk wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 10:09 pmIf I said "the 1930's" what would you think I meant?

Thanks for confirming that this isn't a quirk of British English, ha ha.Octavious wrote: ↑Mon Dec 12, 2022 10:55 pmIn fairness the 1900s is typically understood to mean the 100 years, and if I was intending to mean just the 10 I'd specify the next decade.
Of course I am a firm believer that the game should be played sneakily where possible, and so for creating confusion and spreading disinformation without being remotely dishonest I warmly congratulate you
