[QUOTE="Apri1, post: 175466, member: 10340"] Time travel certainly exists. I'm one such person. But yeah, no one else it seems. How would it effect the prng? The only way it'd change is if the algorithm changed. It's probably the most consistent thing. But yeah, guessing "unknowable" stuff isn't really the best test, I agree. A prng is incredibly predictable, provided the algorithm and seed are consistent. Either way, future knowledge tests basically require you to ensure you're in roughly the same timeline so that the question is the same. It's better to get something more static, than less if that's the goal. You linked the thread, and I read it. As for me, I could easily guess a number, or yes/no and that'd cover most of the questions you could ask. But here's an answer I could provide that works for all of your questions: "Please ask a better question, that one sucks." That's my answer. Or perhaps I'll just copy cirrus, 42. If you didn't understand my answer, it's because you didn't understand the question you asked. Doesn't matter, he'll ask something dumb like what your age is. As long as there's a reasonable amount of uncertainty in your answer, it works. So perhaps here's my "answer": Depending on which timeline I end up in by the asking of the question, the answer will be one of the following: 25, yes, green, it's not possible, my cat, it didn't collapse, someone else killed him, and yes my name actually is April. Hopefully that satisfies all of your questions you could possibly ask. I've certainly missed a lot but that should cover the basics. If my answer appears "wrong" it's because you failed to understand your question and my response. I should've timelocked my answer to prevent reading it until after the question was posted. But I'm nice and figure you aren't going to tamper with the question after seeing my response. If i was doing a real test, that's what I would've done. [/QUOTE]
