The 5 signs of math poisoning:

  1. You become increasingly pedantic to the point of absurdity
  2. Stock art photos of random white symbols, incomprehensible formulas, and geometrical diagrams on a green background make you foam at the mouth
  3. You catch yourself instigating arguments about the technical definition of a sandwich, just to rope unsuspecting, curious people into a never-ending dinner debate
  4. In order to be internally consistent with your idealization of the abstract, you yourself strive to have zero total practical uses
  5. When you see random UTF-8 character strings, you catch yourself looking for an operator or an equals sign

You were absurdly pedantic before the math

Define “absurdly pedantic”.

At the end of character creation, have every player roll a d100 for “plot reasons”.

When the game begins, reveal that the result is how many miles in the air the characters start the campaign at.

I have been informed that the edge of space is 50-62 miles off the ground, depending on which measurement you use.

In light of this new information, I will not be amending the post in any way.
