Re: How do you say your team number?
The teams I've been on:
1075: Ten Seventy-Five. 4343: Forty-three forty-three. I agree with most of the previous posters that the general formula seems to be to read them as two two-digit numbers (ie. Eleven Fourteen), (or a 1 digit followed by two digit, ie. Two Seventeen), except when the tens digit is a zero, and then its "Twenty Seven Oh Two", or "Seven Oh Three". There are also a few outside cases like 4001: "Four Thousand and One", or 2200: "Twenty-Two Hundred". What I found really interesting though, is the french-language teams. Most of the francophone teams refer to themselves (and others) in the same split format, 1075 becomes "dix soixante-quinze" and 1547 becomes "quinze quarante-sept", but the announcer at the montreal regional announced teams (anglophone and francophone), in their language, as individual digits "team one zero seven five", "equipe trois trois six zero". |

Re: How do you say your team number?
At the Las Vegas Regional for most of Friday and a bit of Saturday the MC was going about saying certain numbers in a weird way and I got reminded of this thread. Such highlights include "one five thirty-eight"; "one two sixty-six" ; "ninety-eight seven" ; and "twenty one two two".
Also at one point he looked at the timer for auto and said "TEAM TENNNN" |

Re: How do you say your team number?
DA TIKI TECHS!! - Thirty eight - eighty -
Once in a while I hear it announced as three-eight-eight-zero! No one asks at the competition how you want your number spoken. It seems up to the event staff to go with what they like.. I am waiting for the day when all numbers are spoken properly. Three thousand eight hundred and eighty. Which I have heard once at competition.. Didn't last, obviously.. When we tell others our team number = Thirty Eight Eighty Aloha! |
