It can also mean fourth dimension as in "fourth universe" (like in Phineas and Ferb or Doom). That's actually what is hinted by this translation here. The "4th dimension" is a "world."
That literally makes no sense because it's not even the forth world they go into in the game (I appreciate the Phineas and Ferb mention, peak show, but the game kinda showed its own context here)
 
And that means it's within the 4D space because?
Because every other accident minigame is confined to its specific board? The riot train ones involve stopping the train, the emerald coast one involves surfing to escape a tidal wave, the nature zone one involves hoop jumping a ring of fire in the jungle, etc.

Show me, nvm found it.

Just an idea, could we maybe condense the discussions into messages that aren’t just single lines of text? Otherwise, this thread’s gonna hit 16 pages too and become unreadable (and then the staff won’t be able to evaluate things properly).
 
Every single one of these accident minigames features iconography exclusive to their respective board, with the 4-D space one being triggered getting next to the white vortex (which is the centerpiece of the minigame)
So let's see:
Rocks and Satellites (aka red flag), and they look very fine and 3D.
Somehow there is no dream world in the background, although there is an infinite amount.
The 4th dimensional space boards countains the orbs of dream worlds, so saying it takes place in one of them is pretty reasonable and it's still correct to say it still takes place in 4th dimensional space, although in a universe within.
Yeah sure, whatever.
 
I'm leaning towards agreement ngl. The arguments are really weird.

But my vote doesn't count so welp.
 
Fourth-dimensional space is the opposite of vague. It clearly tells you what it is and the context of X-dimensional refers to coordinate planes. Being vague is like "Higher" or "Other" dimensional space.
Alright fine, I concede that it's probably referring to 4+1D space after looking at the Japanese and thinking it over. The issue is that we have no proof that it has "non-insignificant" extent in the 5th dimension. It is no different from a multiverse of 4D timelines being ranked as 2-A instead of Low 1-C since there is no proof that the 5th dimensional axis has any "significant" extent.

I mean the significant extent is that 4-D space is, in itself, a dream world, and also four dimensional space, and dream worlds are already accepted as universal or even infinite in scope, meaning 4-d space in Maginaryworld would be infinite 4-D space, and thus 5-D overall.

Same with Otherworld, its infinite super-dimensional space.

Same with cyberspace, its space directly stated to be beyond quantification while also being 4-D due to being more complex and advanced than Eggman’s Tesseract dimension.

So the reason the 5D rating exists is because of that +1. The reason a multiverse is usually 2-A is that you have an infinite amount of 3D+1 spaces. If a space is 4D+1 then you have an uncountable infinite amount of 4D snapshots, which means you have a significant 5D axis.

Says here in the Tiering System FAQ that "Multiversal structures past Low 2-C frequently have a distance of unknown length along a 5th dimensional axis separating them. That isn't automatically Low 1-C, as for Low 1-C the distance must be known to be of non-insignificant size." Despite being infinite and 4+1D, these multiverses are still tier 2 since the burden of proof is to prove that it has a "non-insignificant" 5th dimensional size.

The problem isn't about the time dimension (we assume it to be significant), but the extra spatial dimension.

The same should apply to 4th Dimension Space in Sonic, right?

Plus the same statement directly says it is infinite... so like
 
The comment you're quoting literally explains why it's a significant 5th dimensional axis...
No it doesn't. The 5th dimensional axis that the FAQ talks about is an extra spatial dimension, which cannot be assumed to be significant. The 5th dimensional axis that Qawsedf talks about is a temporal dimension
you have an uncountable infinite amount of 4D snapshots, which means you have a significant 5D axis.
That's a temporal dimension. Basically:

4th dimensional space dimensions:
-1st spatial dimension (obviously significant)
-2nd spatial dimension (obviously significant)
-3rd spatial dimension (obviously significant)
-4th spatial dimension (no proof of being non-insignificant)
-temporal dimension (assumed to be significant)

The 4th spatial dimension is the 5th axis that the Tiering System FAQ talks about (it can't be talking about the temporal dimension because that's assumed to be significant on this wiki, and it's clearly spatial since it separates timelines along a "distance of unknown length") and the dimension of Fourth Dimension Space which I am calling to attention. We have no proof that it has "non-insignificant size." So we are only left with 3+1 significant axes plus a hypertimeline for 5D AP
 
Yeah not really seeing the OP’s side to hold much ground compared to the supporters, disagree with the OP.
I mean OK but we literally have zero evidence that the extra spatial dimension has any significant extent. Lots of structures including quite literally every single 2-A structure is "infinite" but that doesn't mean it also has significant extent on the 5th dimensional axis.

Just saying this in case of the tiny probability you bother responding (not saying you have to).

Dude just give up, but I kinda feel people didn't read my respond, because the "flat" argument goes against how 4D beings perceive 3D stuff.
 
I mean being fair they were brought into 4-D space by Lumina, half of Illumina, the creator of the space, so that might have contributed a bit.

That's what I mean by my previous statement. Universes are 4D because they have an uncountable number of 3A snapshots, which results in a 4-Dimensional space of significant size.:
A: The relationship between the spatial dimensions of a universe and the additional temporal dimension(s) may be visualized as something akin to the frames of a movie placed side-by-side. Basically, the time-like direction may be thought of as a line comprised of uncountably infinitely many points, each of which is a static "snapshot" of the whole universe at any given moment, with the set of all such events comprising the totality of spacetime.

This structure can then be generalized to any number of dimensions, which is why destroying a spacetime continuum is a greater feat than destroying only the contents of the physical universe (Low 2-C, rather than 3-A or High 3-A).
Multiverses are a collection of 3D+1 spaces, which can be separated with a non-significant 5th Dimensional axis, but that's because they're 3D+1. If they were 4D+1 then it would be a 5D space of significant size, as you have a Low 2-C space repeated an uncountable infinite number of times:
We then move on to the power set of ℵ0, P(ℵ0), which is an uncountably infinite quantity and represents the set of all the ways in which you can arrange the elements of a set whose cardinality is the former, and is also equal to the size of the set of all real numbers. In terms of points, one can say that everything from 1-dimensional space to (countably) infinite-dimensional space falls under it, as all of these spaces have the same number of elements (coordinates, in this case), in spite of each being infinitely larger than the preceding one by the intuitive notions of size that we regularly utilize (Area, Volume, etc.).

On the other hand, an P(ℵ0) number of universes is Low 1-C, and a similar number of spatial dimensions is High 1-B+.
 
Multiverses are a collection of 3D+1 spaces, which can be separated with a non-significant 5th Dimensional axis, but that's because they're 3D+1. If they were 4D+1 then it would be a 5D space of significant size, as you have a Low 2-C space repeated an uncountable infinite number of times:
If those spaces are separated by a non-significant 5th dimensional axis, that means that the multiverse as a whole is 4D+1. Saying "4D+1" doesn't automatically mean that each of the 4 spatial dimensions is significant. If it was a 4D+1 dimensional space where only 3 of those dimensions are significant, that would be an uncountably infinite collection of spaces where only three of those dimensions are significant. How is it any different from 4th Dimension Space in Sonic?

That doesn't change how 4D beings perceive 3D beings, but I guess the thread is over, we can discuss it in private or somewhere else.

That's the point of the blog since it's building that argument:
  • The Tesseract shows that universes/dreams can contain a fourth axis
  • Things containing dreams are stated as being infinite in size or endless
  • If they can contain an entire 4th-dimensional object and are infinite, then they have a significant axis
If it were just Fourth Dimensional or the Tesseract, then Sonic wouldn't have gotten upgraded, but that was the previous line of reasoning use for the cosmology upgrade.

Second one is irrelevant since a 2-A structure is an infinite structure containing an infinite amount of infinitely large timelines but still has an insignificant 4th spatial dimension. Is the argument basically that since it has a tesseract, the fourth dimensional axis can't be tiny or whatever (since otherwise it wouldn't look like a tesseract)? Because that's the only way I can possibly see significant 4D from those premises.

But that basically just means that the significant extent of the 4th spatial dimension hinges entirely on whether the thingy we see is a tesseract or not. Do you actually think that it's a tesseract? Based solely on your own reasoning and our standards, do you think that it's actually proof of a tesseract?
