Stop jumping ahead! Some things take time.

So here is what we know so far.....

1. I created the counting machine below.
2. I created it with great attention to detail.
3. The counting machine was completed as intended.

It sounds to me to be akin to liberals reasoning.

 

[Mara]

. . . Liberals seem to have trouble counting and often leave out the obvious.

I say we blame the box. Down with the box! nothing against you knight, I mean, your box wants to skip four after all.

 

[Nathon Detroit]

Mara and 1013 LOL!!! .

OK... let me tell you a little more about myself.

I actually DO know how to count! I know that 4 follows 3, and that 4 precedes 5. I know how to accurately count from 1 to 5.

So lets review what we know about me (so far):

1. I created the counting machine below.
2. I created it with great attention to detail.
3. The counting machine was completed as intended.
4. I know the proper way to count to 5.

...more to follow.

You told us the box would count up to five, and then start over, and that the box turned out the way you had planned.

Therefore you are a liar. That’s what this tells me about you.

I don't need a box to tell you that Lion :noid:

The box DOES count up to five and start over!

I see no lie there.

1=1
2=2
3=3
5=4
done=5,
for some reason....

Sequence is counting, and the names of the numbers are arbitrary....

There is a parenthetical gap between the 3rd and the 5th, so that an unforseen dispensation may be added?

Hey thats pretty clever!

And there may be many lessons we could learn from my counting machine but that isn't what I am getting at.

There are still a couple things I have not told you yet.

YXBoom!-I think it’s time you lowered the BOOM! on the supposed God of pixel theology.

These punsters ought to be punished.

I know! Knight is obfuscating the truth! (At least the truth about himself)

 

[cirisme]

What does the animation tell you about me?

It tells me you have more time on your hands than I do.

The box is meaningfully incomplete. The reflexive relationship between creator and creation raises questions and illicits meaning that an otheriwse complete box would not. These were the opinions of my cat, who is extremely profound; I go to him for advice whenever I am at a loss....
