I'm really glad you liked my movie mrlemonlame! Yes, manu manipulation goes really, really fast in this game, which makes this run really fast-paced. And I agree, some parts of this game are "what the crap am I supposed to do now???"-hard. :)

This sounds very interesting. At the moment I can come up with at least two things that you should check out thoroughly:
1. What time to set the clock to when you start the game. This has a lot of impact on the game, so check out every factor that changes with the clock and try to choose the optimal time. You have probably already thought about this though.
2. Find out exactly how "luck" works in Pokemon Crystal, since most of the run will contain heavy luck manipulation. Find out how to avoid fights, get critical hits, good stats with your Pokemon etc...
Besides that I can only say good luck with your run Joeno, I'll gladly watch the progress, so please keep us informed by posting a WIP! :)

(2?)! + √2 is approximately 7, does that count?
Meeeh.... I'd say no, IMO the equation has to result in an integer to count. And (2?)! + √2 = 7,41 isn't really that close to 7 anyway. But this is just my opinion.

Theoretically, you could go on forever, since there is no number that is to high to write with 4 4's. With just one 4 you could get amazingly high numbers, for example, ((4?)?)! = 1,27e+73, but I doubt we will go that far with this :p
379 = (4!)? + (4?)? + (√4*√4)!
380 = (4!)? +(4+4)*4?

Did anyone post a replacement 31?
Yes, I did that earlier today, but here it is again:
31 = (sqrt4+sqrt4+sqrt4)? + 4?
and here's another way to do it:
31 = ((sqrt4+sqrt4)?)? -(sqrt4+sqrt4)!
By the way, how far are wo gonna go with this? Not that I mind if we continue or anything, I'm just wondering.
