Not really, no. I get the feeling that every sentence I form is out of order and only makes sense to me. I can only be sure that the things I say are possible to comprehend by getting replies that show understanding.

What is a time loop?

I heard that being on /jp/ breaks the time loop. That's my proof.

I told you to read the manga question arcs and to read the VNs answers arcs, except Minagoroshihen since it's completely scanlated.

Though if it turns out that we are, then all the off-topic threads on /v/ will become on-topic because reality is a video game.

It seems faulty logic to me. You can't really create a realiable simulation of this universe, if you didn't have fully understood this universe first, and we didn't.

It depends if you prefer manga or VNs.

It is entirely possible that this is timleine is the first, only and uninterrupted or otherwise changed timeline. As long as this possibility exists, the burden of proof falls on you to tell me otherwise! Its the Devil's Proof!

But time would loop back and you won't remember you died.

Yeah, you could prove you weren't in a time loop if you couldn't die.

>> No.10155767

That doesn't make sense. Nothing prevents you to die in a time loop. If in a time loop you are supposed to die, you'll die over and over eternally.

>>10155767
But if you blow your brains out, the hippocampus at least, I don't see how you wouldn't affect your own personality. Let's say you get lobotomized. Then your perception of time is all messed up.

Alternatively, if you go out into space, where time goes by fractions of fractions of seconds slower, wouldn't you theoretically be able to see the time loop phenomenon happen?

>Let's say you get lobotomized. Then your perception of time is all messed up

That would be true regardless of whether you are in a time loop or not.

>Alternatively, if you go out into space, where time goes by fractions of fractions of seconds slower, wouldn't you theoretically be able to see the time loop phenomenon happen?

First, it's the reverse. Gravity slows time not viceversa. So in space, farther away from gravity fields, time goes faster.

Then, If the time loop happens in a single instant, like a sudden reset at the end of the set time span, no, you cannot perceive it.

>> No.10155824

Does it make any difference if I am?

>> No.10155830

It's very hard to prove a negative. I couldn't prove there wasn't an invisible unicorn in my room right now.
Since OP made the positive claim, the burden of proof is on him to show that I am stuck in a time loop, else I can just assume I'm not and move on with my life.

>> No.10155829

what kind of timeloop? like endless eight or like a generic school life show where the characters are just highschool freshmen for eternity?

You can never escape gravity entirely, but yeah I got those mixed up.

If you could go to another planet, you could disprove the time loop if you still had video communications with the Earth.

Are you familiar with the theories of John Titor?
Space is good for 'timetraveling' into the future, but honestly that more of just waiting a while but not experiencing time progression as other might. But to go to the past? You need a black hole.
