mneumatics, or however you spell it, right? It's pi.

[ReamusLQ]

very good! Each word has the correct number of letters in it...

Sir, I bear a rhyme excelling
In mystic force and magic spelling
Celestial sprites elucidate
All my own striving can't relate

3.14159265358979323846 etc.

[allyfaucet]

Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it,
Five in the middle is seen;
First of all figures, the first of all letters,
Take up their stations between.
Join all together, and then you will bring
Before you the name of an eminent king.

No one remembers pi to 20 decimal places.

you're right, but there are numerous sites that give Pi past 100,000 decimal places

edit: And I know this riddle Ally, but I'll let someone else answer because I don't have a riddle in mind right now

Untrue, my math teacher last year could probably recite pi up to that long. But I can't, I looked it up

Is the answer David?

[allyfaucet]

Yes!

[Eva02Soul]

cool. Unfortunately, I can't remember any good riddles that haven't already been said, so i'll just use one I remember from a game

Think of words that end in -gry. Angry and hungry are two of them. There are only three words in The Common Tongue. What is the third one?

[BeefontheBone]

Tongue, I'd hazard. Bit chestnutty, that one.
