Countdown to Owen's return - REDUX

Either this timer is wrong or CC admins have their heads up their asses more than usual, since he is still listed in guests.

The ban works on the calendar month. So it will expire Nov 18th, one month (not 30 days) after it was issued.

Where is he?!

Harold Camping explains...
"his return was actually spiritual, rather than physical.
The fact is, when we look at it spiritually, we find that he did come.”

Your addiction to images often annoys me but this time you hit home . Nice analogy!!

So a 30 day ban received on Feb 1 is only a 28 day ban?

A 1 month ban is a 1 month ban...

Technically, since it is a "1 Month" Ban, they vary in length based on the months in the calendar year (eg the amount of days in them).

It's still a month ban, but some are slightly shorter/longer than others.

Well that seems a bit illogical and counter-intuitive.

Ps. When I say "a bit", I mean "utterly fucking mental" but that's just semantics...

I totally agree. Why would anyone assume a 1 month ban would be 30 days?

[Gilligan]

You can blame the moon about different month lengths. 31 day months outnumber 30 day months, anyway.

God forbid the ban may actually vary by 24 hours! Those lucky devils who get banned in February. Only 28 days in purgatory!

Actually, the lunar cycle does not vary in time. It is 29.53 days. Perhaps we could resolve this issue by resorting to a ban lasting exactly that amount of time.

Actually, I propose CC switch to "lunar time". Forget CC time. Let's really mix it up!

Yeah, but that's not how it was recorded

Time flies when your havin' fun, eh!

Depends on your definition of fun.....if by "your havin' fun" you mean "nobody reads the forums anymore," then yes i agree with your statement....the mods should be so very proud of the current state of things!

up next, a countdown to General Mojo's return. stay tuned.

A 1 month ban is a 1 month ban...

a 1 month ban can be anything between 28 days and 31 days + 1 hour. (if you happen to get a ban on a 31 day month while wintertime/summertime shift)

advice to everyone: get banned on february, you'll save about 2.3864 days on average.

average month length: 30.4375 days
average February length: 28.25 days
average non-february length 30.6364 days (rounded up slightly since the 63 just loop indefinably)

true, but the average month length is still closer to 30 days then it is to 31 days, as i pointed out above.

[Robinette]

hold on...
now settle down everybody...

It's November 17th, that is the day.
For REAL this time.

Let me explain, we can know the timing of Christ's second coming based on the cycles of:

* BpB feast days in the Hebrew calendar, as described in the owen's notes,
* the lunar month calendar (1 synodic month = 29.53059 days), and
* A close approximation of the Gregorian calendar tropical year (365.24219 days, rounded to 365.2422)

We project these into modern times and combine the results with other information in the forums.
Combine all of those things, and 100% for certain, an ABSOLUTE FACT,
WITH ZERO ROOM FOR ERROR, and we can see clearly that this will occur on November 17,
BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THIS WILL POSITIVELY OCCUR ON THURSDAY... week from Saturday at the latest

[Crazyirishman]

Way to go robinette you got me all prematurely excited for the return of the Black Jesus

[Gillipig]

Why are you triple posting zimmah? Really, wouldn't it be easier to just put those short replies in one post?

[Robinette]

.
REPENT!

For the day of Reckoning is at hand!

[natty dread]

Isaac Newton once said, "I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies but not the madness of people."

Great guy that Isaac, both a mathematician AND a philosopher, and had he lived in this time he would have been a great 20 something player here at CC, lol...

Anyway, I gave it a shot... good luck!




good luck, indeed!

lol he was censured when I left....

I like him, Let him be him.
