But the purple line was there until the graph changed recently...And it's in what Ariadne called the "normal" graph, the graph we saw first. Not sure what that's all about, but I think it's probably overlapping with another line.

I'm still wondering why nothing really happened on our world in 1814-1815...Maybe RCC happened on other worlds, and 99.9999999% of those other worlds disappeared. Unless athletes came back in 1815 and performed a synchronization, which lead to the drop, avoiding the RCC. (It wasn't an olympic year, though.)

Dont mix up RCC, which is some kind of natural process to synchronize worlds, with the elastic reaction (ER), which will happen when the upper limit is reached and all worlds collapse into one.

So RCC is used to avoid ER

It seems 1815 the upper limit might have been reached, but unfortunately (or fortunately) the number of worlds have not been reduced to 1.

What I still do not get: Is RCC happening all the time constantly (as before 1815) or is there one big RCC event and the numbers of worlds is reduced significantly (as in 1815)?

[Elizabeth123]

Something must be happening continuously, otherwise I don't understand why the lines ever even out. If new worlds are continuously created, and each of those worlds continuously creates new worlds, the lines would increase exponentially, swooping up and reaching the limit very quickly.

The biggest question of course, is why does the graph keep changing, and how can the levels of past years periodically change. Unless we're seeing parallel universes on top of everything else.

Good catch, AUZ!

Let's seeeeee. 1812.

Charles Dickens was born.
An earthquake destroys Caracas, Venezuela.
Louisiana is admitted as the 18th US state.
War of 1812 between US & UK.
Battle of Borodino.

I think the War of 1812 is our best bet, considering it went from 1812-1815.

Having just travelled over the Mississippi River, I can confirm that it is indeed running in a normal direction south. I'll check again this afternoon on my way home.

Okay the graph has been stable for several days (although I expect it to change again any moment now). But I am still puzzling over what is going on as the lines approach 2008. See attached screenshot...

It looks to me like the lines are *splitting* -- in one direction they are continuing straight on the flat line toward 2008, and in the other direction they are sharply falling together just before 2008.

So just thinking about it -- could the graph be representing on of these 'choice points' indicated in the waveforms? Select "YES" and the graph goes one way (stays high, we're all in danger of Neopangea); select "NO" and the graph drops down to safer multiverso levels...

[Thornus]

I like that idea. It's like we're now in a phase state where we have two potential outcomes, one where we continue forward toward another RCC or one where we successfully relieve the branching potential pressure (probably by running labyrinths in multiple dimensions on multiple worlds but in the same location, and at the same time).

This would, I guess, allow the worlds (and their branches) to collapse in the more non-violent, natural way.

[danteIL]

Continuing my fruitless quest to obsessively document every minute change in the GRAPH, after the last omphaputer update, the graph is now showing the same split lines as before, but now they extend beyond 2008, as if the 'split' happened right at the beginning of the year.

Possibles:
1) the split has to do with our athletes' arrival
2) the graph is now more-or-less up to date through March or so

[Elizabeth123]

If the graph is what we think it is, wouldn't we have seen some sort of dip around 1906, to reflect whatever was referred to in Noriko's postcard?

[momonga]

Hmm, yeah I'm been curious about something like that as well. Why aren't the waves on the graph oscillating more? :O Why don't the lines look more like the wobbly pre-1815 lines?

The counter probably started January 1, 1970. But nothing special. It is just the Unix Time still often used by computer systems:
