Close very close (you are technically right from a logical stand point)

But in the case of

3,6, and 8's the hyaku changes (i thought you where going to go with 2 hundred something lol)

Ok for 3 Hyaku changes to byaku

6 and 8 change to pyaku

*dont ask me why they just do (I dont know why lol)*

Edit: and I'm late again lol

Arigatou gozaimasu when some one is doing/giving (or any thing else you want to thank someone for) in the present

Arigatou gozamashita when some one did some thing for you already. (in the past)

[CoolNard]

Hm.. but the present could mean a few seconds/mins ago.. what is the Japanese definition of "the past" then..?

What ever you feel like, if you feel its the past then say past tense. I doesn't matter ether way for this.
