But to measure the true "verbosic density" of a citizen I feel we need to include the CID number somehow. Can anyone come up with a formula?

Hey hold on....grufty has got twice as many posts and double my CID. Does that make his verbosic density four times mine? I'm not sure about this now......
 
There's a test?

Why did I just have a flashback to high school? And no cute girl sitting in front of me this time to distract me from paying attention to the teacher...
 
Traveller Test: Form A
For section one answer each question.

#1) Orbits and Intercept Times
If a scout/courier with jump drive problems departs a size 8 world with a type 6 atmo (Planet A) with a 2G acceleration and a base velocity of 15.13 km/s at time of orbit and the system defense boat leaves the local gas giant (distance 600 million km) with a base velocity of 28.65 km/s and 5G acceleration how long will it take before the referee gives up on the calculations and just gets on with the combat?

Show all work.
