Stop destroying reality!

What is real? How do you define real?

Are we human?
Or are we dancer?

*slap*
Stop mixing references!

Grate: Destroy the concepts of the numbers 1 through 3.

[superBlast]

I got two ideas...

1:
Have Grate hunt the one known as piecewise on the internet for he's some kind of guy with strange enough powers to create a game that happens to be based on us and grate. So perhaps making him max out Grate's stats in his game would would make our Grate into.... whatever maxed out stats would turn him into.

2:
Have Grate hunt down the Random Number God just like he did when he was.... 5? 6? And turn him into Grate's slave so that whenver the whims of randomness would affect him, he'd always get the ideal outcome for him.... that or screw with other people's randomness.

Let's make Grate do ballet!

Stop destroying reality!

What is real? How do you define real?

Spoiler: Thing that doesn't actually answer your question directly now that I read it again but I'll post it nevertheless because why the hell not (click to show/hide)

If we define reality as the result of each individual's thoughts and perception (or the collation of the thoughts and perceptions of many individuals, depending on your definition), meaning that reality is personal to each individual(or group of individuals depending on your definition) (essentially a collection of all the data our brain (or bodies or group of minds and bodies, depending on your definition) has at a certain period of time as well as the functions applied to those data), then destroying the concept of numbers 1 through 3 on all or some humans would constitute a destruction and/or impairment of part of their brain and cognitive capabilities and hence a destruction of (at least part of) reality. If you think about it, it is like corrupting or deleting part of a computer.

If we assume reality is something that simply exist however, regardless of the existence of human observers or because there is some kind of god-like perfect observer, then destroying the concepts of the numbers 1 through 3 would require the destruction of math and all other numbers, which would require either the destruction of everything that can be counted by some theoretical perfect observer/counter or the destruction of all possible observers/counters (and everything that interacts with something else has the potential to be considered an observer/counter). Essentially the destruction of reality.

Of course, since this is philosophy, you can always give some absurd definition of reality (or redefine math or numbers or assume that humans don't exist or that others aren't real or that you are the only human or etc.) and find a way to destroy numbers 1 through 3 without destroying math or reality.

FAKEEDIT: Now that I think about it, there is a way to destroy math without destroying reality if you consider math to be a human construct that doesn't naturally exist in nature, thus you could just destroy 1,2,3 by destroying math or humans.
There's also the easy way out of just renaming 1 2 and 3 to α, β, γ for example.
Like many things in philosophy, it depends on the definitions of other things that in turn depend on the definition of other things and will drive you crazy if you try to figure out things by logic without choosing some axioms you consider to be the absolute truth.

If this is a question of personal opinions though, then I prefer the first definition of reality since it is more intuitive (although not necessarily correct). If my mind tells me something is real, then it is real, no need to bother with logic or axioms and stuff like that. That pink elephant that is currently telling me what to type is very real to me, even though others can't see it.

GRATE CONCENTRATES ON THE ABSTRACT CONCEPT OF THE NUMBERS 1 2 AND 3. HE THEN CONCENTRATES ON HOW MUCH HE HATES THEM AND WANTS THEM NOT TO EXIST ANYMORE. TURNS OUT HE HATES THEM SO MUCH THAT THEY SIMPLY SKITTER OFF INTO NON-EXISTENCE OUT OF FEAR.

HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS WORK.

HOW.

NOW I HAVE TO START DOING SOME ENTIRELY NEW METHOD OF ROLLING DICE.  FUCK

FUCK.

4 IS NOW FAILURE. 5 IS NOW MEH. 6 IS NOW WOOOOOOO.



DAH RULES BE CHANGING MOTHER FUCKER. ALSO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THATS SUPPOSED TO INCREASE. WE'LL GO DETERMINATIONAL

_{Why do we have non-existent numbers for Grate's stats?}

Congratulations. You've decreased the granularity of PW's responses and had no affect on the odds of success. Though the posts really only had one setting to begin with: bat-shit crazy

[WhitiusOpus]

Well, now the effects of rolls are waaay extreme now.

Shit will be fucked.

teach Grate to swim by throwing him into the ocean.

[Kadzar]

I feel like now is the time to start working on a new universe to live in, since this one is very broken.

[Empiricist]

Erase the concepts of the numbers 4 and 5.
