Phoenyx Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 You still haven't ruled out any other reasons. Yes, the amount of money in the world is increasing, and yes, the universe is expanding, but does that mean that the more money there is, the more the universe expands? Maybe there's an underlying cause for both, or maybe the relationship is pure coincidence. As for Money = 0, think about it. There was a time when there was no money, meaning time = all real numbers - a physical impossibility. Finally, when you froze the money did you suddenly have more time? I would like to see the basic data you gathered. Finally, if I had a penny for every person who told me to read a book without realizing how many books I have already read, I'd have enough to buy out Google, Apple, and Microsoft with enough left over to buy out Google a second time.

Cirevam Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 By telling you to read a book I was implying that you should stop taking this so seriously. But if you want to make this serious, have your little Space Marines come at me, bro. Time encompasses all aspects of the universe so I see no reason why it cannot be equivalent to all real numbers in a sense. It may be beyond human comprehension. I'll have to consult with Fengir and Cyrem to see if they agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenyx Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I see. Sorry about that, when I see an outlandish theory I have a habitual tendency to go crazy trying to point out what doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Here's my argument against your theory. I have two points to address. Time(t) = Money(m') MoneyTime = Ice(c ) t = c/m' Say you freeze money in ice to save time. What happens when you melt the ice? Your money is still there, but you lost ice. You say you gain more time if the ice in the universe melted; so by melting the ice you still have time if not more than you started with. t>0 and m'>0 and c=0. How can t=0/m' and be greater than 0? Rather how can MoneyTime = 0 if you have both money and time? Therefore MoneyTime != Ice If MoneyTime does = Ice, then you can't create checkpoints/savestates by freezing your money. Here's the second point (which assumes MoneyTime = Ice): If t = m' and tm' = c then c = t^2; c = m'^2 Tell me, if ice is a constant, then are time and money not also constants whose squares equal ice? It sure looks that way. Thus, you can't change one value without changing the other two as well. If time is infinite, ice and money must also be infinite. If Money is 0, time and ice must also be zero. Now you can't look at the universe as just what time, ice, and money are in space; you must take into account everything. If there is infinite time in space, then there must be infinite ice, and money either in space or some place else in the universe. Therefore, the universe can never collapse unless infinite time, money, or ice can be consumed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrem Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Amarous...Amarous...Amarous... You do realise this 'theory' is just meant to be a joke and is not serious, it is not logical and is just here to be a fun read. If I had posted this in the Quotes topic people wouldn't have bothered trying to apply logic to this. >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fengir Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I just want to know why people keep adding their own tidbits about our formula (humorous as it is), that don't quote our actual topic on it? Such as assuming that ice is constant (which I know Cirevam and I have agreed that it is not). But as always, programmers gonna not program. They will instead ruin good fun, by adding logic to a formula which was made around midnight by an Aussie and two sleep-deprived Americans. The formula is a joke, that just happened to explain certain common expressions, and in fact was created using common expressions and massive leaps in logic. Word Up, Fengir Ph.D. Map Making Badassery P.S. pls stop changing the notation for our theory/ hypothesis/ banana-boat/ ham sandwich/ turkey club (or whatever you choose to call it). Money=m', Time= t, and Ice= i. CCFA 4 LYFE, Ya Dig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Firstly, Cirevam challenged me to pick it apart some time ago. It only took me 10 days to reply to this because I was looking for a topic by Cire, not by Cyrem. Secondly, this was in good fun because I enjoyed reading it and trying to understand your logic. Cyrem, you should know this if you read the mod chat. Thirdly, you didn't use consistent notation either. After seeing m't=i and ct=i and xt=i and throwing mass around kinda throws people off. Besides that, m'=ct is exactly what Cirevam posted in this topic (post #4): m' = ct He later corrected himself in that it was m' = c/t. So I used these for notation. Sorry I offended everybody. /:| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I specifically stated that ice was a constant in that example, so I denoted ice with a 'c' there. The original formula (i=m't) still holds whether or not you read the entire chat log. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
