Should that be "arithmontoytherion?" Totnesmartin 15:34, 27 February 2009 (EST)

Playing DeniseM to my Andy? ;) I just pulled my Greek New Testament off the shelf (finding behind it a shot glass left there who knows when) and according to its glossary, the nominatives are arithmos (m) and therion (n); Arithmon is accusative and theriou is genitive. It is possible I screwed it up, but I'm 95% sure I got it right, and that's all that science requires. Godspeed. ; Arithmostoutheriou 15:53, 27 February 2009 (EST)

That's what I get for getting my Greek translation off the innertubes. Totnesmartin 15:59, 27 February 2009 (EST)

Thanks for taking an interest; I chose the name off my head when I should have checked first anyway. And no one left me any comments when I was a BoN even though I posted quite a few times the last week or so, so I appreciate the attention!Arithmostoutheriou 16:06, 27 February 2009 (EST)

I can change the name of your account if you want. Totnesmartin 16:10, 27 February 2009 (EST)

(ec)I got it right I told you! "Calculate the number" (accusative case -on ) "of the beast" (genitive case -ou) is the text of Revelation; as a proper name, the head noun in my name would be nominative case (-os).

Now write it out a hundred times. If it's not done by sunrise, I'll cut your balls off. Arithmostoutheriou 16:19, 27 February 2009 (EST)

What the hELL kind of welcome was that. Allow me to start with a new one.

*ahem*. HELLO Arithmostoutheriou! Welcome to the insidiously all-natural kite on the exerciseless interkite!

Thanks. This is much more fun after registering.

Well, it seems I'm a couple of days late... Anyways, welcome to the kite, Arith... Arithmostou... say, what does your name mean? Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 01:06, 2 March 2009 (EST)

It's Ancient Greek for "Number of the Beast". (You might recognize one of the roots from one of the pet topics of an RWian. Isn't there someone who likes to turn every discussion into one about arithmetic? OK, not that root, the other one.)

Anyway, thanks for the welcome. Arithmostoutheriou 02:22, 2 March 2009 (EST)

You're welcome! Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 03:04, 2 March 2009 (EST)

You know, I can vaguely recall an RWian who liked to talk about mathematics, but I can't remember their name... Or maybe I'm just imagining the whole thing. Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.}

My condolences on joining the ranks of janitors, Arithmos-whatever. That's right—you are now a sysop!

You have been demoted because you meet the following criteria: (1) You have a pulse (2) You are not a vandal. (3) You are a vandal, but do not have a pulse.

(One of those is not like the other...)

Here is your bucket, mop, and instruction manual. Don't go all crazed with POWER now! : ) Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 14:03, 2 March 2009 (EST)

Kenny Quote Machine

No problem at all - as you may have noticed, I'm as bad as Ken himself in taking multiple hacks at it to get my own edits right. Think nothing of it, wikityping is scrappy and shit DOES just happen. And your other contributions were great! DogP 02:45, 7 March 2009 (EST)

Essay

what you do is write Essay:Prefab sprout in the search box (just replace Prefab sprout with your essay title. You'll get a page showing the page doesn't exist. Click on where it says "you can create the article" - click there, write away and save. Tell me if you have any problems. Hope this helps. Totnesmartin 13:49, 11 March 2009 (EDT)

Samurai

So YOU are the one who took what was my internet alias of choice!!!, well I guess I like my current CP sock`s name so I don`t care.... -- 忍者  ^{N I N J A A A H ! ! ! ! !} 16:12, 25 March 2009 (EDT) (Why the hell did I even post this?)

Could somebody please explain the significance of the name? Wisest stupid Hoover! 16:13, 25 March 2009 (EDT)

Samurai, gomen, but I have no idea what you are talking about. Please explain. Arithmostoutheriou 05:30, 26 March 2009 (EDT)
