Timekeeping with Tuppers

[Argentum]

I've recently had my tulpa guess the time on a couple of occasions just for fun. The results were interesting, though far from conclusive. In both cases, she was exactly 15 minutes slow, though perhaps this will make me curious enough to continue running tests in the future.

 

I can't promise any steady contributions right now, so I'll just dump our limited results here. I am positive she gave me the answers I provided, in fact she was very specific with me on the second guess. Of course I don't really expect this data to be of any actual use, given its limited scope. Just thought it was neat that she was wrong by the same margin both times.

Sorry I can't get more involved in the research at the moment, good luck with your study.

 

The first time (a couple days ago),

She guessed 2 o'clock sharp.

It was 2:15 PM.

We checked my computer for the time.

Host's Age: 20

Sex: Yes. Male

 

Second time (just a little while ago, which prompted me to reply here),

She guessed 5:24 AM.

It was 5:39 AM.

We checked my computer once again.

Neither age nor sex changed (thankfully).

 

It is interesting how accurate these clocks are. I am sorry but it isn't really useful to the study, because I don't know when the last time you looked at a clock. The hypothesis I am testing is to see whether or not tupper clocks sort of synchronise with clocks that the host sees. Do keep posting information when you get the chance, however. I will add it to the spreadsheet anyway.

 

[where are you manners?!]

Thanks for helping out!

Over on the IRC, I got a really good idea. Instead of repeatedly recording the time, I could have the subjects

1. Record the time

2. Do something like playing a video game, or read a book or something

3. Check the time when what you have percieved to be an hour has paseed

I have my Tupper Nova wake me up at 7:30 every morning. It works every time to the nearest 2-3 minutes.
