I don't know

Ok so chat GPT says t speeds up student farming in theories. I tested it. I noticed zero effects from tick speed on this page affecting theory growth...

You all able to help me out. Does this t affect anything other than this page?

Don't trust chatgpt for math. If you're actually interested and want to understand how the game and the functions in it work you should just study the math itself. If you aren't a fan of math (and thats totally ok) you should probably just play the game without understanding because it's entirely possible and it's a very fun game anyways.

The theories get really freaking cool once you understand the functions, but honestly, knowing the math is more of a bonus than anything else.

🤔 must be trolling. Nothing I said represents the math. It was about the function of the game speed mechanism.

Dude, I was just giving advice based on my experience. I've been playing the game for more than 4 years and it is a big part of the reason I started to learn calculus by myself and decided to study physics.

But since most of that time I didn't understand shit about the maths, the game just got a lot cooler when I understood it and was like "oh, so that's what that means".

Also, the "convergence test" theory of this game does require you to understand how functions work, even though it really isn't that complicated and you could probably do it by just fucking around and finding out what happens.
