Well, from what I've heard, Drakey is a seven-year-old boy, so Alorael...would win...

I don't know for sure, but if they would armwrestle and the table or whatever would colapse, so they don't have support for their arms anymore, they wouldn't win! instaed, i would take a pink puppet-duck, and give them both a big kiss!

He is a very young vahnatai. The result of the competition really depends on how recently James has had his nap.

I cannot correctly answer the second question.

Don't use such language, please!

The answer to how many times I can hit a target in ten seconds is once. That's all it takes.

The first fusion reactors already have required a net input of energy.

I have ten fingers, but they're not distributed evenly between hands.

Nethergate! Now go throw your stuff in a pool and hope for blessings.

How many times can Alorael hit a moving target in ten seconds...
Well it depends on his skill, the skill of the moving target, the type of sniper rifle, the distance between them, the intervening terrain, the weather, the quality of the scope, how well the scope is sighted in, and the caliber of the sniper rifle.

How many fingers do you have...
Well, I guess I'm the only one who can tell the difference between my fingers and my thumbs, because I voted 8, and everybody else voted 10

I would win the wrestle between Drakey and Alorael, and Drakey would win the one between Alorael and me. The number of hits Alorael can score on a moving topic in any finite time interval is infinity. I hate George W Bush, and that he is a puppet doesn't change a thing.

Nobody has 10 fingers. Everybody has 8 fingers and 2 thumbs (assuming they are not deformed or lost any fingers).
A more appropriate question would be: "How many digits do you have?"

How many times Alorael can hit a moving target would be determined by whether or not he bounces and whether, after bouncing, he moves to the place where the target is now... right?

Alorael can hit the target enough times, which is what I voted. Whether or not one is enough.

I am proud to announce I do have 10 fingers evenly distributed among both hands. Anyone who motions otherwise is a liar.

Alorael would beat Drakefyre in an arm wrestle, but if me and Alo went for it, Drakey would win. Makes sense, right?

According to wikipedia, the thumbs are indeed fingers. However, since Wikipedia is not neccisarily accurate, I also checked dictionary.com.

One of the five digits of the hand, especially one other than the thumb.

According to this definition, the thumb is a finger, although the word finger can be used to describe digits other than the thumb.

Thumbs may be defined as fingers but they are the only fingers that are not called fingers by name. Index, middle, ring, and pinki all include finger.

That would imply that a finger is a digit on the hand other than the thumb. Which would mean that the thumb is not a finger at all.
But... it doesn't really matter, so, back on topic:
quote:

But if Drakey was a Vahnatai, he could just cast a really strong weakness spell on Alorael, and a really strong strength spell on himself.

From Merriam-Webster
Main Entry: 1thumb
Pronunciation: 'th&m
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English thoume, thoumbe, from Old English thuma; akin to Old High German thumo thumb, Latin tumEre to swell
1 : the short thick digit of the human hand that is analogous in position to the big toe and differs from the other fingers in having only two phalanges, allowing greater freedom of movement, and being opposable to each of them...

"Other fingers" implies that thumbs are fingers.

—Alorael, who in any case sees no meaningful reason to distinguish between thumbs and non-thumb digits beyond opposability, which is quite apparent without declaring the thumb an entirely different kind of digit.
