I recently started a blog for talking about interesting mathematical problems I encounter as I play or DM. This site may be a little geekier than the average rpg site, which is to say
really geeky. My goal is to hopefully aid in more rational decision making for DMs and players alike.

My head hurts. Are you a Math Teacher? I was tempted to hit the "report this site for Abuse" button.

Looks pretty cool. I'll have to visit when my brain wants more math. A very interesting take.

Wow, awesome. I was actually wondering about 2d6 vs d12 not too long ago.
I'm following the RSS feed now. Thanks for sharing!

I like what I see so far! I've thought of / analysed many things like this myself for fun and it's interesting to see someone else's take on it too. I'm definitely adding your blog to my (very short!) list of RSS subscriptions.

I'm a physicist who works in operations research.

Are you more of a Leonard or a Sheldon?

I couldn't say because I don't watch the show.

Neither is something Id want to admit if I were you.

From the little bit I have seen of it, I'm pretty sure I own a lot more evening and cocktail wear than they probably do, hence I don't think I'm necessarily an analogous personality.
