We all know our doubles, right?
1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 1024 2048 4096...

Anyway, we start on 1. The next person can choose to double it or halve it. So, choose a side and see how high or low we can get it. If we reach 16384 or -16384, then it's a win and we reset to 1.
Edit: Bleep! Thanks to ev3commander for pointing out that we can't actually get to -16384. Instead, when going down, it would go 4 2 1 -2 -4 -8 -16 -32 -64...

Priest units never get old. WOLOLO!

A fate can be changed, everything will change. A destiny is just a container that keeps the liquid in - in this case a person.
Raise your voice, and say it with Twilight Sparkle! I am a kitty cat and I'm steppin' on pillow, steppin' steppin' on pillow, steppin' steppin' on pillow.

Have a twili-meow! /On discord as Vardaril#1783

good morning, SMF!

Fun Fact: Exposure to excessive blue light at night can harm sleep, because blue light tells your brain that it's daytime. To avoid this, I HIGHLY recommend a little program called f.lux. It makes your display warmer at night when the sun sets, reducing blue light exposure at night. Click here to get f.lux. Apparently a small study from Brigham Young University is casting doubt on this old belief, I'll have to keep an eye on this and see if it's reproduced by a larger study/studies. I'll still probably use f.lux even if it is just a placebo because looking at a bright blue screen in a room lit with a warm-white light is kinda obnoxious.
