Locate a large number of my fellow characters. Burn them all. With my dragonfire. Because I'm a dragon.
Point out GWG stands for GreatWyrmGoat now.

No, he stole acronym power from GWP, if I remember correctly.

Point out that this is not true.
Point out that everything is true in derailspace.
Point out that if that is true, then:

1. By assumption, everything is true in derailspace.
2. By 1, the statement "Nothing is true in derailspace is true" is true in derailspace.
3. By 2, nothing in derailspace is true.
4. 1 and 3 conflict. Ergo, our assumptions are incorrect.
5. By 4, 1 is incorrect; hence, not everything is true in derailspace.

You're finally beginning to get it.

Everything is true in derailspace.
The statement, "Nothing is true in derailspace." is true in derailspace.

That's a contradiction. Hence, it cannot be true. Especially as, by your own logic, "Contradictions indicate falsehood" is true.

"Contradictions indicate reality." is also true. Paradoxes are a part of existence, especially in an abstract medium.

My point being that the existence of these paradoxes in the truest sense indicates that it is certain that one of your assumptions is incorrect. Unless you can find empirical evidence that everything is true in derailspace, which I highly doubt you will be able to, it can only be regarded as being fictional as pholgiston, if not more.

Consider this. The players have the ability to cause anything to happen, at any time. Failed rolls can be repeated. Failed results can be erased from existence. Therefore, if the game continues to infinity, everything will be true, and will also be false.

Mathematics breaks down at infinity and zero; that's why black holes have all those properties that screw with physicists.

In any case, the game will NOT continue to infinity. It is impossible for any game to even approach that. That means that your latest claim is roughly analogous to "If Nikoli Tesla was infinitely intelligent, we would all have flying cars and time machines by now."

All of these statements are true within derailspace.

Are you aware that you are trying to prove your statement with your statement? Circular logic does not work.

It does in derailspace.

The above statement is correct.
