Merged New telepathy test: which number did I write ?

Not open for further replies.
I do hope you realize that any number posted here that matches Michel H's number, or is a multiple of his number, or a factor of his number, or contains his number in a longer number, will be considered "a hit" that proves his theory. 1234567890. Oh, oh. Now I've done it. Luckily I am well known as being unreliable.
 
It's either 1, 2, 3, 4 or a suffusion of yellow.

I don't know which one it is, neither do I really care anymore. Whatever the "outcome" of this "test" will be, you will try to twist it into evidence that people can hear your thoughts even though nobody can.

What measures do you take to prevent inadvertent transmission of other numbers during the test period?

How do you select channel 7 on your TV without thinking of the number 7?

What happens when you look at your watch and it says 12:34?

When the microwave prompts you to "Select Cooking Time" does your mind go blank?

I may transmit other numbers during the test period, but not the idea "number xx is the target number for the Randi test". I rewrite the number from time to time on the paper near my computer, and I draw a circle around it, to try to avoid confusion. I also often write the time next to the number.

The opening post for this test is post #1495.

Well, that clears everything up.

You really shouldn't draw a circle around your number, your number will be enclosed and can not be transmitted because your number can't leave the circle.

Please think of a better emphasis for your number and post it here, it'll aid transmittionance of your number.

As you know, it isn't and there is no test.

Of course the number can leave the circle perpendicular to the paper, but he will have to orient the paper so the number doesn't beam into outer space. I am more concerned that the circle might be confused with zero (in the USA at least) in the recipient's minds.

Actually, I feel very bad criticizing Michel H posts, given the broader issues here. He can believe that he can project thoughts for others to read, if he wishes to and refuses to consider other possibilities. But if he posts here repeatedly, then he should really use a scientifically valid protocol rather than have us unwillingly support his belief.

I hope the number written on the paper understands that or finds a way to do so, with it being essentially two dimensional.
In what direction would he have to orient the paper, towards his computer?

I still think another (open) symbol around the number will be better.

Indicating this compounding problem is a good point. Since he will draw a circle around the number, the circle will be bigger and be more conspicuous than the number.
 
I'm up for the advanced version of the test, comprising:
  • a number between 61 and 193, plus
  • a single letter of the alphabet, except "w" plus
  • a breed of dog, as long as the name is more than one syllable, plus
  • any colour of the current Dulux colour chart, plus
  • a type of cloud

All you need to do is send something like the thought "80 D Collie Teal Strato-Cumulus" and anybody who's tuned into your thoughts will have no trouble picking up on the unique characteristic of the transmission.

That way, we won't confuse your transmission with random number ponderings, like how many kilos of sweet potato to buy, or the number of days before next payday.

Please stop this. You have demonstrated nothing but your own delusions in all this time.
 
Ok, I'm the one that suggested that even a range of 1-10 would be better than what he did before, so I guess I'm partially obligated to play along. I honestly don't think I'm receiving anything, but I let a number come to mind and wrote a sentence including that number. The hash of that sentence is: FA888D56F2C26FC1FB9049B28FBD0220884097A4F88C36AA00ECD5DE25FC35BE20D380AF72BD6E0862A92AB3333BFB56F600FFBC6169D257F9158F1D3B83A38A
 
I don't think it makes sense to humor Michel with a guess if we don't even know what protocol he's following.

There is no complicated protocol in this test, I have simplified it following remarks by members of this forum, and also my own observations. If I get valid numerical answers (i.e. integers in the range 1-10. Note: in this test, they must be given explicitly, I remind of this in response to xtifr's post 1531 above), I'm planning to count them up, and to examine if the target has been answered more (or less) than 10%. A probability calculation might also be done. It may also be important to study answers credibility-wise. For example, if someone says he answers 2 because this is the number that a random number generator, or a 10-sided die, gave him, such an answer should probably be considered as not credible.

If you're once again going to be assigning a subjective "credibility rating" to the handful of responses (if that many) you may receive, your latest "test" is as useless and unscientific as all your earlier ones.

I wrote down my phrase this time.

OMG! Michel! I was finally onto your transmission. You sent, "The number is" then your message was totally garbled when some wiseass overrode your signal with "80 D Collie Teal Strato-Cumulus".

Please resend.

OK, I just did it. I wrote "The number is xx" (with 'xx' replaced by the actual number, of course).
 
Michel,

"I don't know" is also a valid response and therefore must be counted as a failure.

For the record, my answer is "I don't know".

But...what happened, Nay_Sayer? Are you talking like a computer now? in hexadecimal?

Michel, you appear to be utterly unable to understand when people are making fun of you or your test.

That was a joke. It was not a serious post.

This further makes your test a waste of time and effort for everyone.
