you all just going too watch or actualy help get in there and do some calculation?
do i gotta bust the stormcatcher screaming head and his quote?
I dont want too
but I'm only exactly 5 clicks of way from doing so.

and you all know the line im talking about.

can we replace math homework with this

@catgame21234

I'm terrible at math so it's probably safer if I watch tbh. I might accidentally be like the cat who presses too many zeroes and annihilate the universe.

@catgame21234 if Bossdad posts tomorrow and changes his broadcast message from GET BACK TO WORK Steve is throwing a party for us to celebrate getting time off. :P

As far as calculations, I had thought only six Imperials to bring back Uncle Windy sounded a bit low, but I'm going back and forth between this and coli (since we're profit pushing right now) so I'll let other people take a swing at the math. :P

i'm sorry i disappointed you, but i legit cannot math still. ; ;

@catgame21234 when it comes to math i am less then wonderful. But, i will agree with you 5 imps thing. it seems low to me, after all, as far as i know ( and that isn't alot lore-wise) there are no metric's for how strong the dragons are so it's guesswork. also one has to consider if they are strong enough to hold on to the noodledad, while he is wriggling around. After all he is the deity of wind i don't imagine he would be easily grabbed.

@catgame21234 if you're gonna shame me, you could at least give me a Cone of Shame to wear. :P :P :P XD

I'm better at things like checkbook math than formulaic math, anyway.

While eagles and imps have different body structures, a 12-pound eagle can carry a four-pound fish. That is one-third of it's body weight. As for holding on to a struggling Windsinger...
Most areial predators have long talons and toes. Some, like owls, can rotate a toe to get a better grip. (Two toes front two toes back) Imperials have long talons, but looking at the official art they might get a better grip with their hind feet than their front, which look a little more delicate. And don't leave magic out of the equation! I imagine Wind has some equivalent to pixie dust, right?

I hope this counts as helping? I'm not great with math, but I know birds.

[/quote] according to this and OPs math, it will take 9 imps to move a non-struggling windsinger. i imagine it would also be more practical to create harnesses that tie around the noodle and attach to the imps.
