I actually don't technically say 9999 at all. It's way easier to say ten thousand, which is only out by 1 anyway, so it doesn't matter right? In the case of games allowing the damage limit to be broken, I'll say a hundred thousand too.

Nine-nine-nine-nine.

Or Nine-nine-nine-nine-nine, depending on the game's damage cap.

If it gets any higher than that, I will refer to it as *number of 9s* nines.

I have a habit of calling it quad-nine. Sometimes I call it nine-nine-nine-nine, but I usually leave a nine out.:D

(Most of you probably won't even be able to read it, but I don't blame you - Polish is one of the three hardest languages in the world. But I think it's still quite easy to tell what this means... Tip: dziewięć = a certain odd number :D)

I say "the four nines" usually these days. I was telling my brother to use Reflect and the Hit-All option to get Vivi's spells to knockback and hit the enemy for the max damage and I just said four nines for some reason. Ever since we both say it that way. I'm such a trend setter!

I say "ysi-ysi-ysi-ysi", which means "nine-nine-nine-nine." The Finnish version of nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine takes a lot longer to say: yhdeksäntuhatta yhdeksänsataa yhdeksänkymmentä yhdeksän. However, if I use something like Knights of the Round and it does 13 x 9999 = 129,987 damage, for example, I just call that damage "sata kolkyt tuhatta," which means "one hundred and thirty thousand."

I have two methods of saying it and neither were in that poll.

1. "Straight Nines"

2. "Ninety-Nine Ninety-Nine"

So yeah. My vote goes for something else.

This thread was rather old, but I feel that it's been successfully revived and many people were posting in it the last few days, so I guess it's safe to interject my opinion now.
