Yes this is what he is saying. Now that it has been reposted several times and clarified several times. Lets get to the end of this... what do you find illogical about the Titor story.

Perhaps you would be so kind as to provide a link/source to that content?

Well I haven't gone through a whole lot of research on Titor because I'm not going to entertain the thought of a guy coming from the future just to warn people of ATS

PLease stop stalling, and continue.
I would really like to get to what part of this story you disagree with.
The titor story is mearly a possiblity.. i have found no flaws in it that defy logic. I am looking forward to you getting to a point where we can examine where this story gets illogical.

Your right, it is very hard to try to imagine a way to identify the specific variance you would wish to enter into. Although if the structure of the possiblitys of relaitys was imagined in a 3d format... when you moved though that medium your divergance from your original timeline would increse the further you went. (im trying to imagine something like a giant peice of broccilli where each branch of it is a possible timeline... athough it would be much more dense.)
Ill think some more about how its possible tonight.

OK, so according to your version of Titor's story, all possible worldlines already existed, he just happened to end up in ours.
OK, you are the scientists that need something retrieved. It will take abundant resources both real and financial to send someone through time to get it.
You want me to believe that they just gambled on the fact that of all possible worlds, he would end up in one that just happened to be close enough to have what they needed? Please tell me the amazing funding operation his world uses because we need it.
Seriously, is this what you believe? They knew the chance of him getting to a place that worked for them was 1 in infinity but they tried anyway?
p.s. this is not the reason the story falls apart on itself but you are getting closer. I think this reason works pretty well too though.

Actually , that's according to Titors story, not his. Also, "Titor's" with the apostrophe means "Titor Is".
Yep, why is this a point, he never said he got his time machine from a vending machine or built it out of legos. HE said it was the Government in his time who was doing all this. Who has more resources than the government?
Seriously, is this what you believe? They knew the chance of him getting to a place that worked for them was 1 in infinity but they tried anyway?
He said lots of things. Did he leave us any reason to believe any of them aside from his saying it was so. I know I have mentioned my invisible dragon?
He stated multiple times that the machine has numerous sensors that can keep the divergence to a minimum. Now who is ignoring or making stuff up?
And yes they did have a "one in infinity" chance. Apparently your mind can't seem to handle the concept of "infinity". Infinity means that there are also an infinite number of world-lines that would have what he needed. All they need is a way to semi-accurately navigate the path to those world-lines. They don't need to single out a certain one, just make sure he is somewhere in that Infinitely sized group of world-lines that had the 5100.
Cool, we know you fail at English and now Statistics. The Chances of anything being 1 to infinity in infinity is an impossible gamble. The chances of getting right are infinity times infinity. Can you do that math?
Well, for crying out loud, stop trying to maximize your points by leaving "teaser posts" Get to you point already. This is the last post from me until you do, and I suggest others do the same.

Hmm, last I looked, I had -3 points so I am having trouble imagining that being a motive for anything. Do I really need a new color for my SN or a second title. I guess egos are bigger than I imagined here.
The third question spawns from the 2nd being answered, honestly, according to Titor words. This does not mean pick and choose the parts that support you and ignoring the parts that completely destroy it. Can you really multiply infinity times infinity? Can you justify anyone, any corporation, any military, any entity at all spending that money and time to take that gamble? Can you imagine it all and make it all make sense and you have remember that he claimed there was a certain amount of difference remember? So you cannot make up some fancy little variation on things that would make it work. We have to stick to what "titor" gave us. He gave us up to 2%. You decide how that is counted, how that is measured and how that changed things between our world and his where infinity squared has an answer.
TADA!!!!!! I said he was funded and resourced. What government, what company, what financial industry would gamble on a 1 to infinity odds? Please tell me about them I have some things to sell them.

quote me
If you've done as much research as you claim to have done, you should know the answers to the questions you're asking. Your questions are so broad, I can't see how anyone would have time to type it all out for you, in paraphrase form. He goes into so much detail about time travel, perhaps a link is the only way to answer your question: johntitor.com...
Just stop acting like your opinion is proof that "kills" the John Titor story.

When you have the technology and people are suffering theres alot that would be risked to prevent it. From what ive seen i dont think time travel is possible .. and if it was there would be nothing you could change... and if there were multiple parallel universes a 2% differance over the span of "INFINITY" would equal a VASTLY differnt reality. So im pretty sure its bullcrap. A man can dream though huh? To say something is impossible takes much less thinking than trying to findout how the pieces fit.

clearly you dont know jack ^($%^ about titor, and have no place baiting people into this BS.
there is no and never was a gamble according to titor. odds have no place in the QM of his travels(into the past).
read all of his testimony, and if you have re-read it, becuase you fail to understand the cornerstone of HIS explaination of travel through time.
kill this thread

[EDIT]i ve just read some of yor posts and i see that you were baited somewhat into that perspective. however this thread still needs to DIE

someting tells me you dont really care about anyone proving you right or wrong, infact if you know its a hoax by now why did you waste so much of your life with this thread to just yell at people. you are so cool man! and does it matter if he is real or not? nothing is real and everything is real.
