The Fibonocci Sequence(Soon to be an annoying thread)
Saturday, June 12, 2004 by Watson | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Ok this is the game, in the fibonocci sequence numbers progress as follows
1,2,3,5,8,13
Ok the way it works is the very first number is 1
the second number in the sequence is 2
1+2=3
three is the third number in the sequence
aft5er we hit three the current number is always added to the number before it which would mean te starting number for this annoying thread is 5
the next person to post here must add 5 and 3 to get the next number in the sequence.
Simple enough so let's begin

Ok, I realize that the small numbers aren't very challenging and in order to make it interesting we're gonna go bigger
Ok this is the game, in the fibonocci sequence numbers progress as follows
10000,20000,30000,50000,80000,13000
Ok the way it works is the very first number is 1
the second number in the sequence is 2
10000+20000=30000
three is the third number in the sequence
aft5er we hit three the current number is always added to the number before it which would mean te starting number for this annoying thread is 50000
the next person to post here must add 50000 and 30000 to get the next number in the sequence.

Oi, <jafo> Fibonacci </jafo>
And by the way, the first number is one, as is the second. A Fibonacci sequence is defined as f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2), with n being a positive integer, f(1) = 1 and f(2) = 1.
Okay, so I'm a smart ass. And a spoil sport probably.
And I can't spell, hence the edit. Or on second thought, I can spell, my input just gets mutilated.

Eh, I haven'tseen the actual sequence for like 6 years so I kinda forgot the first numbers and tried to improvise.
