Oddeus: Well, in this case I want to withdraw my question.
Now that I think about it, the Sun does shine at night, wherever you are. Your location simply determines if you can see it or not.

And though it may be very far away, the Sun even shines on Uranus.

real.geizterfahr: I really don't get why Fairfox's writing style is bothering you so much...
It's the joy of being bothered. The joy of "calling someone to order". The joy of defining a harmless indiosyncrasy as a catastrophy, in order to justify this attitude as righteous self-defense. Added to a commonplace inability to care for content beyond form, with the consequence that the rare genuine general gaming discussions on this gaming forum are now permanently greyed out.

In short : that's the gog forum crowd. For various reasons, I keep hoping that this forum's users mentalities are not representative of gog customers in general.
A wierd question came up to me: What numbers have the following properties?
* Number has 3 (decimal) digits
* All 3 digits are the same (like 111, for example)
* The number is congruent to 1 (modulo 3)

So, what number could I be thinking of with these properties?

Oddeus: Back to the important questions of life, like: How did Jared Leto got in thirty seconds to Mars?
Because being a handsome, famous, actor wasn't enough. He needed to conquer the world of black eyeliner and emo music.

dtgreene: * The number is congruent to 1 (modulo 3)
I can´t find an accurate translation for that. Can you explain it a bit to a non native speaker?

It's just math (number theory, to be precise), and it is fortunately simple.

Simple version: The number is one more than a multiple of 3. (Alternatively, divide the number by 3 and the remainder is 1.)

Full version: a and b are congruent (modulo m) iff a - b is a multiple of m (in other words, there exists a k such that a - b = km). (Note that all variables are integers.)

divide by 3 remainder 1
Okay, I see... but I know only three of the basic mathematical operations.

WTF WAS THAT!? XD

Oddeus: Okay, I see... but I know only three of the basic mathematical operations.
Here; I'll express the problem without using division or modulus:

Take a number.
Multiply it by 3.
Add 1.
If the result is a three digit number with all digits the same, then that result is the number I'm looking for.

Proof?

(This shouldn't be a hard proof; it's just standard practice to ask for this sort of thing.)
