Proposal: Render all numbers as comic sans

[battaile]

I've always found numbers confusing, and don't even get me started on negative numbers. (I mean, like, how do I hold up -3 fingers?) I think replacing them all with their Comic Sans representations would really enhance the UI, making it far more intuitive. What do you guys think?

[Siegurt]

I think we should use Webdings as the standard font for all numerical information.

[rebthor]

I find this thread sans comic.

[tcjsavannah]

I saw render in the title and thought this was another thread about cooking meat.

That's the one I was going for, I can't keep my fonts straight.

[Grimm]

Crawl should use Roman numerals.

@Grimm - IC

[Grimm]

I've got IC problems but the numerals in Crawl ain't one.

[Siegurt]

Roman numerals *using* the webdings font, *dingdingding* we have a winner!

[battaile]

Excuse me, heathens, its XCIX problems.

[Igxfl]

You can hold up -3 fingers by promising not to hold up a finger the next 3 times you would otherwise do so.

[jejorda2]

Or you can hold three fingers down.



There aren't any useful images in a search for "three fingers down," but apparently it's a phrase useful for describing self-screening between mammograms.

I like it, someone make the patch

[Grimm]

Just realized that that shows that in webdings, "CI" is "Sous les pavés, la plage." ConInt, are you listening?

I feel that "Après moi, le déluge" would be more fitting.

[Grimm]

That would be mT in webdings.
