I know 150 digits of Pi Legit. Took me 30 minutes to memorize all 150. Don't you wish you had a photographic memory? Can any one beat me?

6 digits. Enough to ensure that the accuracy of pi is never a problem when I calculate something for the real world.

And no, I don't wish I could memorize 150 digits of pi. It's on the list of things I consider useless ;)

I know as much as they say in a rhyme on the Simpsons.

one plus one plus three is 5
here are the numbers that make up pi
3 point 14159265357..[trails off, so it might not be rounded right]

That's 11. And I agree, I have better things to memorize than pi :)

Hiroyuki Goto, 21, the current world record holder for the most digits of Pi memorized, required over nine hours to recite 42000+ digits [Seattle Times, 2-26-95].

You're the only person I've seen with a photographic memory which talks about it like it's your level 90 power skill. And it took you 30 minutes to memorize a sequence of 150 numbers? Sounds like level 2 photographic memory. You should stop wasting your experience points on fabulist and raise photographic memory up a few notches.

His photographic memory is maxed for his current character level. He needs to find more magic items to raise it.

Honestly .. that 21 year old must start guessing after a while .. either that or he is fucking amazingly gifted

I couldn't imagine memorizing anything past 100 ... it would all jumble up together in my mind.

They probably had a list that they went by when they sat there for 9 hours and listened to him recite it. So he probably did't guess any of em.

Well .. obviously .. but I was saying .. 40k is a lot of numbers and I don't see how that wouldnt get mixed up in your mind

It probably would get mixed up in my mind. His minds proabably set that way. Doesn't mean he's real special. Some people can memorize useless things but can't figure out how to do everyday things that are needed to live.

I think he's just making a comparison to how Eintstein failed math or whatever, yet was still a complete fucking genius.

I hope both of you punch yourselves in the face for changing the topic :-)

Funny, it looks to me like he said "einstein could memorize numbers but he was too retarded to live".
