    If you follow that logic, four pieces should take 17.5 minutes, not 20. You'd cut the square in half (10 minutes), then cut one of the halves in half to get quarters (5 minutes), then one of the quarters in half to get eighths (2.5 minutes).

    But yes, enough of that though. Lol @ Batmankrik.

    You obviously don't know distances. That 3rd cut (to get the 4th board) would cross the same distance as the 2nd cut and so take 5 minutes as well. Say you have a 10x10 board. Cut it once, 2 10x5 boards. You then cut each of those once to get 4 5x5 boards. Distance for those two cuts was 5u, half the first cut of 10u. If you were to cut each board again you would cut it into 8 5x2.5 boards where each of these cuts have a distance of 5u (thus taking the same time as the 2nd round of cuts).

    say you have a 6cmx5cm board

    it takes 10 minutes to cut through 5cm

    now you have a 2x5 board and a 4X5cm board

    IT STILL TAKES 10 MINUTES TO CUT THROUGH 5cm!

    Oh god, please stop those arguments about boards. If you know and understand how it works then fine, good for you. If you don't then too bad, get some board and go cut it. But stop arguing on forum about that, it's no use.

    Sorry about the harshness of that line (sounds harsh this morning, I wrote it last night when I was really tired)

    Today I was in Orgrimmar, typing /me steals 7284g 36s 27c from your pocket and runs away, when I got this whisper:

    Now I'm wondering : What do you think? Can anyone be this stupid, or is he trolling?
