Another doper I know that doesn’t post here any more asked me about it… and though I searched (not hard… I admit) I can’t find it. Any keywords I could think of were basic and got me nowhere.

Its that thread where you tried to guess how many young children you could take on and what strategy you’d use.

A very odd request… But sadly we were discussing the strategy required to take on a hoard of bloodthirsty eight year olds.

Thank you.
