| is that why i use them then? I don't know why but i just think Inchs is alot eaisry and also it's fiar to all units wherest the conversion is a little unfair to some and genros to others. |

| I use Imperial whilst gaming, it's just the simplest and easiest to work with when gaming. |

| Wooh, imperial all the way! None of that la-di-da metric nonsense here - bah! Personally, I don't think we should have changed in the first place... Anyways, I just think it's the easier one to use: smaller numbers, larger units, better rounded, easily divided...it's all good  |

| I used to use metric, but now moving onto imperial as it's slightly easier to work with, and seems slightly more balanced. Inches is rounder, while I find a couple of cm measurements tend to get thrown out a little more. |
