There's been discussion/suggestions about using EST, strictly. Since this causes small changes in the distribution of the blue dots (i.e. days with Q posts), here's the image.
Got the idea with the hour being confirmation through the day the post occurred only later, since I was stuck at the "wind the clock" thing.
There's indication that two sets of hands need to be drawn – I figured the two would be connected via clock times of two tweets/posts (rather than calendar days).
With both, mins & hours going woth the day, anons can use >>1615438 , and read the calendar "time" for every day.
… And that's exactly where one who doesn't know the code system applied/implemented might start thinking overcomplicated, as the Q-Clock appears to code in multiple ways: This movie above also shows the "111 days back" date (circled black) – and there's reason to believe this has a meaning ("watch the water")
Then you have the actual minute (of the current day, i.e. the ray) with the days in the past, that have had Q posts – these also match sometimes. And there's also 119 days being 17 weeks exactly, possibly related e.g. to the "[Next week]" thing (pic, i.e. along the lines of ''Could one "q-week" be one cycle 'round the clock, if one day is a q-minute?)
So, yes, plenty of (possible) switches to play around with … and even more [winding, letter systems (greek/latin?), gematria, caesarian shift etc] … lol.
>can we get a best of… kind of multipost?
If there's no other, I'll try and put one together this weekend. It should have all/much that's confirmed by now and serve as a start & simple overview.
This Caesarian Shift (or rot13/rotN) from earlier today I'll mention, and have also all general threads saved. Have to think how to put it all together – then maybe this could be a start for others to improve, add & correct.
Alright, here's the start of a series of posts, where I'll try to put things together in some structured manner to make sense of the Q-Clock, what we know about it so far, what can be done & how it works. Maybe it can serve as a start for other anons to add, improve or correct things.
I won't pay too much attention to what's being posted until I'm through (also qr probably), so fire away, and/or come back later …. There'll sure be things to fix & improve, and later we can put it all together in one or two pics or even a movie to help understanding.
(0 – Preface)
What's a Q-Clock, Precious?
(1.) This is not about discussing if some concept of a "Q-Clock" is justified or bears any importance.
(2.) Instead, this shall serve as a (non-exhaustive) collection of (strong) indications, that an assumption of such Q-Clock may indeed be justified.
(3.) Also, the concept of the Q-Clock, as assumed here, is not about predicting anything, but rather about putting the crumbs together in the right order & manner, and about understanding possible (cryptic) clues/riddles, which may be better understood with the help of such clock.
'''(4.) It has little/nothing to do with communicating moves ahead of time – at best it's some "coding template" which, using the right settings (think Enigma machine), may imply or reveal some meaning/information.
(5.) Re-read Q's posts, if you're unaware of the existence of quotes like "Wind the clock w/ all markers.", "DELTA [6] CONF.", "Clock started - 10 days." or "The CLOCK and the GRAPHIC are ESSENTIAL.".
The question boils down to something like: "Could it be, that Q composed & dropped their crumbs in a manner such that (some?) posts, translated into some clock configuration, form some kind of map or other structure, which facilitates, guides or adds to the interpretation of the information given therein?"
As mentioned, here's an introduction to the Q-Clock and its basic features/structure. I suck with graphix, and like numbers better, but as stated previously anons can feel free to add & improve.
Done using inkscape, in case someone wants to have the inkscape-svg.
(1 – General Idea & Structure of the Q-Clock)
Why on God's Green Earth is there a Q-Clock?
(1.) Since Q's first mention of a clock on Dec, 18th there had been idea's amongst the anon that some kind of clock may be involved in the plan laid out in the crumbs. For a very short history, check the beginning of this thread and >>1597885
(2.) The idea gathered momentum during the first ~50 breads, but all solutions tried to account for time only. That is, the calendar date of a timestamp was dismissed in favor of the time of the day.
(3.) The topic of a clock entered the "hive-mind" again, thanks to a persistent & ingenious anon >>1405672 , who came up with the idea to connect calendar days with clock time by assuming that the zero-position, i.e. [:00] on the clock coincides with the date of Dec, 12th 2017.
(4.) After posting some quite convincing examples (these will be shown here later), which were good indications that randomness is the more unlikely possibility, said Anon's work was convincing enough for another Anon to try and visualize the idea >>1562683
(5.) Attached pic shows two of these convincing examples, and gives a few basic explanations as to the general appearance & structure of a blank Q-Clock.
Beauty is surely one of the 6 or seven things the map should have. Hate to disappoint expectations, but I'm sure other anons can design this much more beautiful & instructive – maybe someone will improve it.
However, currently I'm still stuck with the idea of arranging Q-posts around the clock for the "graphic" – would be too much of a large image probably, when all is included …..
Check the movie up in >>1615438 – could be similar to what you're planning to do ?
I'd imagine Python could be helpful, due to its complex modules & relative platform-indep., when on the calendar around the clock, one could program "buttons" where the days are, which when pushed gather the posts (from a local archive) for that day and screen it for the user to select/read.
Once we're sure how many sets of hands & how many clocks, and how to use them, this "python"-clock could also show hands – all just with the high-res pngs in the background and some simple lines drawn over them in python ….
But this might be a bit over the top at his point and not little work, not sure ….
