A rich businessman holds a contest to see who are the best counters in the world. He fills a vast hallway full of novice kyu players, and invites a Physicist, an Engineer and a 5 Dan to count them. You have one minute to count every man he says, the closest answer will win my daughter's hand in marriage.

  • The physcist wasn't interested in the daughter but was keen to work out the solution anyway. He combined Newton's 3rd law of motion with Brans Dicke theory and settled on 417 people.
  • The Engineer scratched his head, was the daughter able to solve polynomials he wondered, then he decided to model the players as a suspension bridge - 600 people he said confidently.
  • The 5 Dan laughed to himself on hearing these answers, what rubbish he confided in the businessman, the answer is 0
  • What do you mean 0, can't you see how many people there are in the room protested the rich businessman
  • everyone knows beginners don't count said the 5 Dan, delighted with his new Rengo partner.
