I'm hijacking your idea. There are no pennies. Everything is rounded off. I absolutely want this to be a base twelve system, so we're doing: 6c 10c 30c 100c 1$ 6$ 10$ 20$ 60$ 100$ =D Unless anybody has a REALLY good reason to not let me have this (and numbers higher than 5 aren't even going to come up until much later, probably), then it's decided. I think very much later on in the show we can introduce base twelve, after the point where there isn't a whole lot of learning to be done anymore. Not only that, but I may want to reuse this little space station for further stories, so it would be neat to establish early on that there are different number bases. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
