incidentally, following shraeye's comment, i did a resolution graph to see what happened if raerae was a redirector and gave orders of "make cayvie target galzria". i was worried that this would lead to a contradiction, and thus a random resolution, but in fact it doesn't!
it actually doesn't change anything; things get resolved just like in the previous post, except we have to wait until didds is resolved before my action can be resolved. raerae winds up trying to make herself and ari both target galzria, but she can't, since ari and raerae have already been resolved at that point.
Not sure I understand. If that happened how does it not happen? Am I the only one who doesn't understand any of this?
like, your orders get changed to "make ari and raerae target galzria"
but in this specific instance, ari's orders have to be resolved before yours. i can walk through this one step by step too, if that helped? it's pretty wild.
initial orders:
cayvie: raerae > ari
ari: glooble > raerae
joseph: didds > ari
didds: pubby > raerae
raerae: cayvie > galzOnly joseph can be resolved here; as he's the only one not targeted by an unresolved redirector. so didds' target changes to ari.
cayvie: raerae > ari
ari: glooble > raeraejoseph: didds > ari
didds: ari > raerae
raerae: cayvie > galzOkay, now didds is our only choice; she's the only one not currently targeted by an unresolved redirector. so ari's target changes to raerae.
cayvie: raerae > ari
ari: raerae > raeraejoseph: didds > ari
didds:
ari > raerae
raerae: cayvie > galzNow everyone appears on the right. but both raerae and cayvie cause a contradiction if we try to resolve them right now, since they're targeting each other with their
first action. Whereas ari does not, since he's cayvie's
second target.
So we resolve ari next, and make raerae target raerae.
cayvie: raerae > ariari:
raerae > raerae
joseph: didds > ari
didds:
ari > raerae
raerae: raerae > galzNow cayvie can be resolved, and raerae gets an additional target of ari, since she's already been redirected once.
cayvie: raerae > ari
ari:
raerae > raerae
joseph: didds > ari
didds:
ari > raerae
raerae: raerae, ari > galzNow we can resolve raerae's action. She adds galz as a new target for both herself and ari.
cayvie: raerae > ari
ari:
raerae, galz > raerae
joseph: didds > ari
didds:
ari > raerae
raerae:
raerae, ari, galz > galz
however, all the redirections have been executed at this point, so raerae's action has no actual effect on anything.
(idk how much this is helping anything)
