The digits should work as such -

Single digits 1-11

Double digits 12-143

Triple digits 144-1727

Using this method of thinking you remove your assumption 1+1=2. It's wrong, it doesn't all of math is wrong in theory. 1 is actually 1.08 so 1+1 is actually 2.16 roughly.

Holy shit dude, elaborate on that. It makes no sense at all.

edit: the number system makes sense, except that using base 10 to describe base 12 is not intuitive.

>>> 143 / 12
11.916666666666666
>>> 12**2
144
>>> 12**3
1728

The last part, I remember reading something like that somewhere but I can't remember what it was. Wasn't it electricity related?

Okay I will give you guys a way better write up tomorrow with multiple examples. Basically what I'm saying though is we are all thrown off base straight from the start because we are missing numbers it should be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 X Y 12

12 should really be represented as 10 and it should go as follows

10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1X 1Y

12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 ^ being the numbers above.

Then 20's as the same, once you get to 99 you should be at only 83

81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 8X 8Y 90

97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108

I think you can get what I mean but it scrambles all the numbers basically that we use. I am giving you guys the keys to unscrambling them. Figure out the numbers like I am showing you they just make sense, where you usually get weird numbers like pie you get numbers that relate to other things.

Cheers I will write and research more tomorrow.

Yeah, I edited my comment about that. Where's the 1 = 1.08 coming from, though?

You could use letters like with hexadecimal: 0..9, A, B where A = 10 and B = 11

edit: forgot to include 0

I don't recall what I meant just ignore it for now, it has something to do with

1/10 x 12 = 1.08. I will write more tomorrow but I am feeling like I am uncovering stuff here, I wrote stuff using that system on a piece of paper before writing this but I didn't have a graph to match the math.

like I said I'll write more tomorrow with more stuff too there is a reason we have all this crap shoved in our face and I want to lead the path into every bit of knowledge I can accumulate. :)

Yeah 1/12 = 0.083333333— so (1 + 1/12) = 1.08333333333—

Yeah, but adding 1 + 1/12 is a completely arbitrary calculation. Is it supposed to mean anything?

In other news, 1 + .666 = 1.666
