Back for Seconds Grey Goo downgrade

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

When his tier was made, it was assumed that every Turtle of Time contained a universe inside him. That is not true.

The known universe was a ball that rested on the back of the first Turtle of Time, not the Turtles themselves like the 2-B tier implies. As the other Turtles don't HAVE a ball that rests on their back, then logically they don't contain a universe.

And before you make the argument that "Well, maybe he eventually ate enough Turtles to be put in the 2-B tier", you could also make that argument for Tasty Planet Forever Grey Goo where he was casually eating tens of universes and likely didn't stop there.

No...? The smallest turtle held the universe on its shell and all the rest formed an infinitely expanding pyramid as the Goo went down the stack. The turtle s themselves exist outside of reality itself, they dont have universes in them

It actually didn't specifically say that it was infinite either, and the Grey Goo didn't eat all the infinite, as was decided in a previous CRT.

I'm pretty sure it was stated to be infinite. May have to see the scene again I guess

It was

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

The Turtles of Time were stated to be stacked one on top of the other, not that there were endless amounts of them.

 

[Andytrenom]

Yeah, looking at it again the turtles weren't stated to be infinite, just implied

If they WERE infinite, Grey Goo would've been 2-A, NOT 2-B. 2-B is finite.

Of course where the "infinite" statement comes from the fact that the turtles play on the saying "turthles all the way down," which is an expression of the problem of infinite regress. The saying itself has its origins into Hindu mythology, which claims that the world rests on the back of a turtle's back, hence why the universe sat on the first Turtle of Time. Here's some more information on the phenomenon.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtles_all_the_way_dow

An individual Turtle of Time would actually vary from Low 2-C (the first turtle of time both carries just the universe and represents time) to 2-B (very, very far up there for the turtle at the very bottom assuming Infinity-1 is finite).

Long story short, the turtles of time are considered infinite due to an old saying about infinite regress called "turtles all the way down."

I thought he was downgraded from 2-A because it didn't mention him eating all of them without that very same saying.
