This is a little complicated but bear with me. When John Titor started posting people asked why he was staying in 2000-2001 for 6 months, when he had already accomplished his mission of getting the IBM computer from 1975. He vaguely said he had "personal matters" but i think he was bluffing.
The planet is constantly rotating around the sun. If you were to time travel back to a month ago, you would be in outer space because the planet would be in a completely different resolution. When you time travel you only change the TIME, not space (where you are at). Titor said his machine could detect the planets gravity to keep it anchored, but that doesnt make any sense.
What i think happens during time travel is you have to leave on the day you want to arrive. In other words, if you want to see JFK shot on Nov 22, 1963, you would have to leave in your time machine around Nov 22nd. Because the planet will be roughly the same place on Nov 22, 1963 as Nov 22, 2014. You would need a computer to do the calculations, but thats the basic idea. The planet needs to be in the place you need it for when you arrive.
This is why Titor, after starting to post in Nov 2000, didnt leave until March 24th, 2001. Whatever destination he was going to was around march 24th, of some year, so he had to wait for the planet to be in the right position. His own words say as much:
SO WHY DO I BRING THIS UP? According to Titor he was going back to 2036...BUT..what if he didnt? Titor time traveled to Nov 2000, the start of what eventually caused wwiii (George W Bush being elected). So wouldnt it make sense that he would then want to time travel to judgment day - N-day as he called it?
In other words: Did Titor have to wait until March 24th, 2001 to leave because he was traveling to around March 24, 2014 or 2015 to see WWIII? Did he lie about his destination because he didnt want anyone to figure out the obvious?
