Cool.

I'll get my math team working on this right away, and we eagerly await more of these. ;)

EDIT: slight sarcasm on the "my math team".

(Your math team?)

(Friends that are studying math for the purpose of solving FAI problems and parts of myself that can be similarly described.)

I am guessing nyan_sandwich is referring to a team that participates in the various nation-/world-wide mathematics competitions that exist. It's an interesting way for math-talented college students and the like to exercise their mathematical abilities.

nope. Unfortunately nothing so formal.

I use "my math team" the same way people refer to lawyer-friends as "my legal team"; slightly sarcastically.
