I watched that numpherphile video thinking I could get involved with what you were talking about only to find out that you were talking about something completely different, fml.
Clue me in as to what you're talking about please (I'm drinking but may still provide slightly useful).
edit - If you're talking about the two balls problem (which if we were you'd think Ongs mum would be an expert) then 6:30 into the video I'm thinking that you may be able to make any number you want given some arbitrary setting of numbers which would mean you could make any number you want but as pi is special making pi seems more special than any other number.
Bold is probably absolute nonsense now I looked into it in more detail.
