Its basically like a cloud storage, and your local storage (your brain) gets wiped every loop. You can edit this file any time you want using your brain (you can be tied up and it still works). 1024 Bytes is all you get. Yes you read that right: BYTES, not KB, MB, or GB: 1024 BYTES
Lets just say, for this example: The loop is 7 days form a Monday 6 AM to the next Monday 5:59 AM.
How do you best use these 1024 Bytes to your advantage?
How would your strategy be different if every human on Earth also gets the same 1024 Bytes “memory buffer”?
The problem with this is that if you’re using anything ‘non-standard’, you have to devise this system during your 7 days, and then you have to include in your message enough information to figure the system out anew when the loop resets. You’ve got to be specific enough that next-loop you will definitely figure out the exact same system, or you might mis-interpret your message and if you lose the information that you’re in a loop, you’re fucked.
Basically my point is, you’re wasting prime time that could be spent on some enjoyable activity in each loop. Unless solving your own puzzle is enjoyable, in which case, you do you - you can spend eternity living in your own Memento-inspired personal mystery, if you want to.
We should all make up our personal character systems so we won’t have to worry about this situation /s
Good idea - get ahead of the problem. I like it. Make sure to take extensive notes and leave them somewhere you can access at any time.
Let’s just make a new text standard, call it “tinychar” or something. You don’t need any personal notes when it’s a known concept
