I don't think this has been done before, but why not try it, it's tech related in a way:

i might make a rival thread where we count in BCD (binary coded decimal)

1 in binary: 00000001 (assuming 8 bit word lenth)

e.g 101 in BCD= 0001 0000 0001
as opposed to 01100101 in binary.

dont you know that as you do electronics? - its used in clocks and stuff

Yes i am aware of Binary and BCD Bennet.
I can make circuits that work, can you? I doubt it
Binary is easier to understand though than BCD for some people.

but not for clocks. with BCD less calculation is required as you can increment individual segments at a time (e.g you dont want to have to retotal the whole time every second - that would require extra cpu cycles)
