Now we just need the Low-1-C blog accepted right? We should also update the cosmology scaling for the macrocosm cause half of it is crossed out

The only stuff crossed out is the Infinite Universe stuff because it was removed, but I plan to make a CRT in the future which’ll turn into a verse explanation page that details the entire cosmology. For now though we’re okay with just the macrocosm and hypertimeline stuff.
 
From what DT said, DB clearly fits the bill.
A: The relationship between the spatial dimensions of a universe and the additional temporal dimension(s) may be visualized as something akin to the frames of a movie placed side-by-side. Basically, the time-like direction may be thought of as a line comprised of uncountably infinite points, each of which is a static "snapshot" of the whole universe at any given moment, with the set of all such events comprising the totality of spacetime. This structure can then be generalized to any number of dimensions, which is why destroying a spacetime continuum is a greater feat than destroying only the contents of the physical universe (Low 2-C, rather than 3-A or High 3-A). A spacetime continuum with two time axis, instead of just one, could likewise be visualized as a line comprised of uncountably infinite points, each of which is a static "snapshot" of the entire regular timeline with 3 space and 1 time dimension. It would hence be one level of qualitative superiority above a timeline and as such baseline Low 1-C. Similarily, adding even more time dimensions would add one level of qualitative superiority each time. Outside of explanations which state that multiple time dimensions exist it is difficult to show that a fiction has more than one. The key point that has to be established is that there is a kind of time that flows in a different direction than the past or the future or any of the spatial directions. Things like timelines having time that passes at different rates would not qualify, as even the theory of general relativity already establishes that with just one regular time dimension time can flow at different rates in different places. Time flowing backwards in another universe would also not qualify it to have an independent time dimension, as it would still use the same directions of past and future as regular time, just with events playing out in reverse. Of particular consideration are instances in which timelines as a whole being changed, such that there is a timeline (or multiple timelines) before they were changed and after they were changed or created / destroyed. As the timelines as a whole are changed, the before and after in this context can't be the past and future the timelines usually use, but should be a separate direction. However, caution is necessary. As explained above, we require that the additional time dimension is "a line comprised of uncountably infinite points". If new versions of timelines are only created if they are changed, due to time travel for example, then the number of "snapshots" of the timeline would be far more limited. The amount of snapshots would be one more than the times the timeline was changed. So, for example, if the timeline is rewritten 2 times, there would be 3 snapshots of the timeline: the original, the timeline after the first rewrite and the timeline after the second rewrite. That are far less than the required uncountably infinite many. Aside from direct statements, the easiest way to confirm that the line is comprised of uncountably infinite points/"snapshots" is to show that the development of the timelines is time-like. I.e. typically one would want a statement like the alteration of the timelines being subject to its own flow of time or by saying that special time travel can go to prior versions of the timelines instead of the past. The keyword in the latter case is time travel, as that specifies that the action happens through movement through something like time. Note that such statements can be considered contradicted if the fiction specifies that new versions of the timeline, i.e. additional snapshots, are only created when the timeline is altered or similar. One other pitfall to consider is the case of branching timelines, where one can return to a past with less timelines by just going back to a point in the regular past that was before the split happened. In such cases one has to decide based on context if that is meant or if a prior version where the splits also didn't exist in the regular future is meant. The former case doesn't qualify for an additional time dimension, while the latter might if it meets the other outlined criteria.

Going to be the messenger of what DT said like Luffy but with the less relevant parts trimmed out and the sentences separated into paragraphs so it's easier to read

Tier 1 DB is going well...now we must do Tier 0

Now we only need to wait for like 10 years until Goku got Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Ultra Instinct Ego Ultimate Vegeta absorbed that shook the whole timeline or something to get Low 1-C.
 
This is what DDT says qualifies

It is crazy how perfectly DBS fits even without time travel

The time room literally gave it to DBS on a platter

So what are we waiting on?

I believe that reconfirmation of those who participated in the thread would be better with a new draft of DT, will save us a trouble of creating new thread. Also that they are aware of what thread has talked about.

Why don't we just ask DDT on DBS at this point?

DT ain't going to come to read 12 pages.

If this gets upgraded

Crack of time separates and contains an infinite amount of timelines right?

If those timelines are 5D, wouldn't that qualify for 6D CoT?
