3125 gets Half a Dimension?

Not open for further replies.
Agreeing with "Unknown" due to not fitting into the tiering system.

It's a shame, I really liked 3125. Maybe keep the High 2-A key as well based on Marion's statement?
 
I could look more into it's intersection key, but Type 9 would make matches for that difficult to find.
 
Friendly bump.
 
It should probably be noted that this is likely due to SCPs whole math manipulation thingy, and I could argue it to be Low 1-C as it's a whole number (Albeit one not in normal math)

The "sum" of the symbols is equal to a previously unknown integer (designated Theta Prime by Prof. Hutchinson) of intermediate value between 5 and 6.

The number itself it between 5 and 6. Math manipulation is only in regards to it interacting with mathematical equations.

"Between 5 and 6 dimensions" isn't 1-C, it wouldn't be on the tiering system at all because of how Dimensional Tiering works, therefore Unknow.
 
No. We are not changing the entire tiering system for one verse. It's just unknown.
 
I... don't understand what you mean by that.

It's outright stated what the number is. It's not changing its own value if that's what your asking, it's just messing with the math around it. "Below 6" means 1-C is out of the question, and "Above 5" means High 2-A is out of the question.
 
So you're saying it should be Low 1-C but prop anything it battles against up one dimension?

It seems better to leave it at unknown with a note to avoid confusion then.
 
Kind of. But the angle I'm going for is more like this: non-integer dimensions do exist geometrically and something like a 2.7 dimensional object is necessarily uncountably infinite on a 2D scale and well, it's explicitly given here that the object is less than 3D.

Ergo, a character described as having a non-integer dimensionality could be treated that way
 
As I understand it that's not how fractional dimensions work. I've only heard them used in reference to fractals, but something like 2.2 dimensions still lies on a 2-D plane but is an infinitely complex fractal on that plane.

So I don't think 2.7d could really be described as uncountably infinitely above 2d.
 
I just looked into it a bit more, I was close, at least in fractals (idk if it's the same everywhere in mathematics), I was on the right track, but anything above 1d lies on the 2d plane, any fraction above 2d lies on the 3d plane, and etc.

Like Wokistan, I am also leaning towards simply labelling this as unknown.
 
Another bump.
 
Bump.

Is it fine if I add this? I feel like we've gotten to a reasonable conclusion.
 
Just put Unknown on his profile and be done with it.

5.5D doesnt fit our system so the honest thing is saying that we cant properly rate it, imo.
 
I have added the changes.

Also, the page is not protected, I'll request again here that it gets protected.
