  1. Imagine four balls on the edge of a cliff. Say a direct copy of the ball nearest the cliff is sent to the back of the line of balls and takes the place of the first ball. The formerly first ball becomes the second, the second becomes the third, and the fourth falls off the cliff. Time works the same way.

    1. @ceruleanspark So you say we are in an eternal circle of events?

    2. @ceruleanspark I always tought of time as a succesion of images, linked one to another in a linear way, allowing the viewer to change the speed at wich he sees them under specific circumstances.

      1. @nerthos Time isn't linear at all. It's more like a ball.

        1. @ceruleanspark That's why I said a succesion of image instead of a tape. At any time you could hit a secondary link and end up in another image, far from the one you're supposed to go to.
