That's funny because Dime is the name of a chocolate bar over here.

10 pence then. I always wondered what the American names for coins were valued at.

What was that?

This kind of confused me. Are you saying here that you don't know the name of the US coins? Or did I just horribly misread this.

I can make a 60yard pass to within 2ft accuracy. I used to be able to hit 100 yards until I dislocated my shoulder. But I have the top 3 (if not the best) throws in my team.

I'd just love the chance to train with a UPA team. I'd get my ass handed to me, but I'd learn so much. We have a guy from Georgia Tech on our uni team who's pretty good, but not as good as me, which kinda surprised me.

EDIT - Sending deep for a score is simple! I would ahve said "hucked it for the point" if I wanted to use terminology! He sent a big throw the length of the pitch, into a crowd of people, that was then caught by his team, so they won. Curse sudden death)

What? The Jumping? Uh.. they were probably just showing off. Haha

I'm accurate within about 15 yards.. Haha.. but I can catch basically anything thrown in my direction. I'm used to running after passes.. but they were throwing and catching so quickly that I couldn't really react to em. It was a lot harder for me to anticipate what they were doing. =/

And.. what's that edit all about? Random much?

I think I know the names (cents, dimes, nickels, quarters?) but have little-no idea what values they are (aside from a cent being a penny to us...is a quarter 25p?)

Edit was for FTM. She asked.

That's pretty good for a beginner, you know. Infact, it's rather impressive.

My relex catches are pretty good because of it You get used to it. It's a fast paced game.

Penny = .01
Nickel = .05
Dime = .1
Quarter = .25
50 cent piece(really creative, eh?) = .5
Dollar Coin(Or Coin Dollar, doesn't really matter) = 1.

Didn't know you had dollar coins.

Yeah, prettymuch as I'd guessed

Dollar Coins are rarely used.

Honestly, I don't even know why we have them.

[Phoenix]

Ah cool. That'd explain why I'd not heard of them them.

On a non-related note, whenever I hear the question "What time is it?" I respond by shouting "GAME TIME!"

Ohh i get it now!!
haha.
it's:

1. Penny: 1cent
2. Nickel: 5cents
3. dime: 10 cents
4. quarter: 25 cents
5. half-dollar: you should be able to guess :P

I've never quite absorbed the english coins system either.. do you guys still use crowns? it's always confused me.
Someone please explain? :[

..oh, zz told you already.
Yea, we have dollar coins!
They're all goldish, with words around the edges! ^_^
But they're decorative really, it's frowned upon to use them to buy stuff.
