cubinator Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 This gives me an idea for a forum game...but it would probably get locked Or merged with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliasDanger Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 If it got merged with this one, it would also be locked, cuz I am positively sure this thread is most definitely probably locked maybe. According to rumors at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocketSquid Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) Study to Determine the Status of Thread By R. Squid. Abstract: On numerous occasions, the thread "don't click this" has been locked. Many claim that it is currently locked, while others argue otherwise. This study hopes to use a foolproof method to determine if this thread is currently locked. Methods: I will attempt to post a fake scientific study in this thread. If I succeed, it is not locked. Conclusion: Pending Since p>0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and must conclude that this thread is not locked. Edited July 8, 2016 by RocketSquid Entering results.

Reject, you forgot the introduction, affiliated institute, and you did not define yor statistao nethod. I clicked on this thread to referee rocket squids work, he needs alot of review.

My affiliated institute is the Institute of Don't-list-us-on-studies. My statistical method is binary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again , i clicked for the same reason as my previous post. Why I clicked is not necessary information, and is written in the abstract. Also, "reject" would mean this thread is locked, and thus neither of us would have replied. I did not say why I clicked because I was unaware of the merge.

EliasDanger Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) i would love to rebuff claims that this thread is not locked...but seeing as how the thread is locked i cannot do that. Can a moderator please unlock this thread briefly so i may properly put these unlocked believers in their place with cold hard facts? You can lock it back up after i get the last word.

UnionPacific1983WP Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 This thread IS unlocked. However, threads that were merged into it got locked. However, this particular topic is unlocked. For now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliasDanger Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 No no no. You got it backwards. THIS thread is locked. The threads that were merged into it were unlocked prior to the merge, but were locked when this one was locked. It must have been for efficiency. Why have two locked threads when you can simply merge them and lock em both at the same time. Some maybe wondering why we are able to be here now, discussing the locking or unlocking of this thread if the thread is locked. There are two possibilities. Possibilty 1. This thread is locked in a quantum superposition with another reality where this thread remains unlocked. We are in the real reality where this thread is locked, but somehow the quantum superposition entanglement effect lets us post here in a parallel dimension. i checked the box i left my cat in. Its dead, so that must mean my cat is alive in this strange parallel universe. If anyone on the other side where this thread is unlocked sees my cat running around, please return him to my dimension. Possibilty 2. This thread is not real. Therefore it can be locked for some of us and unlocked for others. If this is the case, it is impossible to really lock or unlock this thread without first realizing the truth....there is no thread. Its all in your head. Im hoping its number 1 cuz I want my cat back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't continue the discussion in a locked thread, that's why threads get locked. If mods just let us do that then there's no point to locked threads like this one.

Dres Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 2 minutes ago, PB666 said: That would only be a half of a meow I have to assume it would instead be a superposition of silence and a meow. But since this thread is locked, I can't share that opinion with you. Sorry? This comment is also a superposition of a comment and the absence of a comment, so you can only read it in certain realities where this thread is unlocked.
