Eleven Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 Awesome. lets hope that rooting from overseas give MODO Hockey some luck! ;) As i said above, gmt+1. Its in 35 mins :) I need to work on my time conversion skills. Does it involve logarithms? I never was good with those. Quote
MODO Hockey Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 I need to work on my time conversion skills. Does it involve logarithms? I never was good with those. Hehe, its not that easy tbh. Think of it this way (If your seated in Buffalo that is?) We are always 6 hours ahead of you guys, here in Sweden. Quote
Neo Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 I am rooting for them now because of you. Ok. So that means 1700 Sweden time? Like about two hours from now? Your metric time systems confuse us Americans. Man, when is the world going to see the error of its ways and convert to our English System?!?! Quote
Eleven Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 Hehe, its not that easy tbh. Think of it this way (If your seated in Buffalo that is?) We are always 6 hours ahead of you guys, here in Sweden. Things get screwy with daylight saving time. Which we currently are not on here, but when I asked google what time it was GMT, it lied to me. Man, when is the world going to see the error of its ways and convert to our English System?!?! We, along with Liberia and Burma, are leading the charge. Quote
Neo Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) I say we stop giving them hip hop and reality tv until they acquiesce ... Btw, I had no idea about Burma and Liberia. I mean, is there an argument more compelling than "100 yard dash times sound so much faster than 100 meter times"? Observation: I am a voracious consumer. I have not found a way to purchase a MODO Jersey. I dig the European hockey vibe and have adopted MODO as my team. Next objective: Find a way to stream. Bucket list attend. Observation Two: The North Dakota Fighting Souix crest is no more. The University is now the Fighting Hawks. All things iconic derailment finished. Edited November 21, 2015 by N'eo Quote

The only argument I have is that Fahrenheit is more useful than Celsius when evaluating the weather, because of smaller gradations. Other than that, we're just being misled by the Burmese. Quote
MODO Hockey Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 F-ck .. so tired of this shait!!!!! Quote
Eleven Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 So according to the stream I'm watching, a 1 ruble bet on MODO will net 10 rubles if MODO wins. The same bet on HV71 will net only 1.04 rubles if HV71 wins. There is actually live betting during the game. MODO is down 3-1. Quote

MODO Hockey Posted November 21, 2015 Report Posted November 21, 2015 So sick of these games where the intensity is gone .. last time we faced HV71 we won, 5-0.Since then, this season has gone to complete shait.God .. reaching playoffs is soon out of the question. FUWK!! :wallbash: :( Guess we share the feeling if we look back a couple of seasons with Sabres. It is so nerve-wracking beeing a "hardcore"- fan.Ill be going to sleep early tonight, and get up in the middle of the night for Sabres game, feels great to have something else to look forward this snowy fuwkin shait day. :censored: Quote

MODO Hockey Posted November 22, 2015 Report Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) Sometimes the actuall cussing is necessary to prove a point, isnt it? it feels like that in the actuall "Do you need anger management?"- moment :D Edited November 22, 2015 by MODO Hockey Quote

Other than that, we're just being misled by the Burmese. Celsius makes sense for weather if you look at it this way (as told to me by a Brit): Anything negative: rather cold 0-10: Cold 10-20: Chilly to sweaters 20-30: warm 30-40: hot 40-50: miserably hot Quote
ubkev Posted November 23, 2015 Report Posted November 23, 2015 <p> Celsius makes sense for weather if you look at it this way (as told to me by a Brit): Anything negative: rather cold 0-10: Cold 10-20: Chilly to sweaters 20-30: warm 30-40: hot 40-50: miserably hot Nope, not gonna do it. No red blooded American man will ever walk into a room and say "Jesus H. Christ! I'm sweating my balls off! It must be 45 degrees in here!" Triple digits! That's hot. :p Quote

She said no way, Celsius is easy: 30 is summer 20 is room temperature 10 is spring/fall 0 is freezing -10 is winter Quote
French Collection Posted November 24, 2015 Report Posted November 24, 2015 I've lived with both systems and still bounce around. Metric has taken over my weather language. Just don't ask me to convert the numbers, I'll ballpark it. 100 degrees is hot!! What I like about metric is zero is the freezing point. Quote
woods-racer Posted November 24, 2015 Report Posted November 24, 2015 Fahrenheit is better because you know... minus anything.... it's just better to wet your self if you have pee, way better than the risk of frost bite on the Big Johnson. 0-20..... can write your name in the snow and it's gonna be around a while. 20-30 .... writing is more legible because shrinkage is less of a factor. 30-40..... your a de-icing machine. 40-50..... your looking up to the sky for airplanes or stars, no great hurry but it would be nice to get back inside. 50-70.... there's no other place I want to be than right here right now. 70-90..... watering the daisies is coined. 90 plus... sweaty junk is not a pleasant way to live.

MODO Hockey Posted November 24, 2015 Report Posted November 24, 2015 10 mins to game, MODO vs Djurgarden Quote

LGR4GM Posted November 24, 2015 Report Posted November 24, 2015 10 mins to game, MODO vs Djurgarden How is MODO doing? Quote

With 10 degree bands that cover smaller differences in temperatures, we are able to do this a little better. 10 to 20 spans a pretty large range (50 to 68 to us). I'd want a heavy jacket on the low end of that and I could be wearing just a T-shirt on the high end. So telling me it's "in the teens" doesn't tell me much at all. That's really the only advantage I can perceive at all, though. Quote
MODO Hockey Posted November 24, 2015 Report Posted November 24, 2015 How is MODO doing? 2nd period, 0-0 Nothing fancy :/ Quote
